Many street rods are built by owners with a variety of mechanical skills and they often do not build them to the strictest of rules of safety. Thus, they sometimes break down or have accidents while away from home. The author has compiled 80 stories from 50 street rodders that convey to the reader the adventures that they have experienced that were frightening, discouraging, upsetting and of course, expensive.

Autorenporträt
Art Stultz taught high school Automotive Technology for 27 years. His involvement in this field carried over to a serious interest in street rods. Street rods are old cars rebuilt with later model engines and transmissions and modified with other amenities which allow the owners to enjoy driving them on the street in a comfortable and safe manner. He has built several street rods and custom cars for himself and has worked on those of other owners as well, concentrating on the electrical system in particular. He has been the Vermont State Representative to the National Street Rod Association (NSRA) since 2002. While with NSRA, he has promoted their Safety Program in which cars are inspected by authorized NSRA officials to assure their safety. This carried over to his compiling a book of 80 interesting and informative stories of crashes, wrecks, fires, steering failures and other calamities that have happened to himself as well as 49 other street rodders across the United States and Canada.
