Hey all and welcome,
You have found a website creation that I started back in 1998, if you are like me and love the sound of a blown hemi, screaming mufflers, building, driving, racing or simply collecting hot rods than yo
u are in the right place. This is a community of hot rod lovers; we love everything about hot rods. Here we have no favorites; all types of rod owners are welcome. We are a diverse mix of people that all have one thing in common, HOT RODS.
My vision way back when was the driving force behind the ultimate re-birth of this site in 2008, my focus has been to create a site capable of handling such a diverse group of individuals, yet allowing like minded hot rod owners the capabilities of connecting with each other and share information. I've done one even better, how about uploading video or pictures, have a virtual type garage, post to discussion groups or even organize events?
Now that's what I dreamed of, and you can do it right here, right now on Hot Rod Time.
Oh and did I say there is absolutely NO COST. That's right! No membership fee, no sending in your pink slips, I don't even want registration stickers off your license plates. Sign up and become a part of the in crowd. Hot Rods are my passion and if you have the same passion I do, this site can become your home as well.
I was driven nuts by all the other sites that had restricted access, the advertisements brought me in, only after registering finding the site really didn't have anything to offer. I was getting tired of these revenue greedy sites, only using hot rods as a means to sell garbage. Then I wondered what it would be like to develop a site built by a rodder for a rodder and what it would look like.
The idea of mine had to take a back seat and ride along with me for a while because I just had too many other projects going on along with starting a family. Then I decided to sit down and figure out what I needed to do that would make this happen. The biggest issue was how I was going to reach all the hot rod owners; I could have just gone with a simple web design or just shared the hosting with a large hosting company, but this site is much more than that for me; it's not just a forum or a blog post. This is a hot rod site, with everything in place for the hot rodder in mind.
Having a place where people can interact and share things that are all about hot rods, create groups for different rod owners, if you have old or new photos or movies that can be shared, or if you're looking for hot rod events or car shows. You might just want to connect with old friends or even find new ones. I wanted a site that anything or everything was possible. I believe I have created that.
I am also aware that this site is only as good as the people on it, so I am always open for suggestions. If you would like to see something here that would help or benefit others I would really like to here from you.
My name is Steven Fern, and I want to welcome you to the new Hot Rod Time, where we have members in almost every US state, with some in the UK and Canada. My hope is that you have fun, connect and share because this is where hot rod owners come together.
