BLACK AND WHITE VERSION, Large Print. This book is a guide for building a street rod. It includes planning, ordering parts, title & registration, building instructions & procedures, and all aspects of the project from start to finish.

It's written in large easy to read print. The author has been building street rods and hot rods for 23 years. Also, he is an FAA licensed aircraft mechanic, commercial pilot, and has degree's in Aeronautical Technology, Human Resource Management and Social Psychology.
