Hot Rods Hit the Lawrenceburg Streets

Hot rods or street rods are a specific kind of custom automobile that are made for speed. The trend really started at the end of World War II when returning soldiers would take old, pre-war cars and give them new, more powerful engines. Spreading from the streets of Southern California, the hot rod trend touched all corners of the country. There were quite a few hot rods on hand for the 10th Annual Cruisin' to a Cure for ALS show in Lawrenceburg recently. Here are just a few of them.
