Hot Rod 101 classes, if you are lucky enough to be in Chicago

Hot Rod 101: featuring the Chrome Czars and Hot Rod Chassis and Cycle. There (probably) won't be any yelling, throwing things, kicking doors, or "theme" anything, but you will learn a lot and have a good time!

This season we will be walking you through all the steps of building a hot rod from the ground up... from planning to tuning. You don't need to attend every class, but you may want to!
