We wrote an article earlier this year detailing the history of automotive modification as best we could. It started with the bootleggers of the 1920s, who could be considered the earliest hot rodders, and progressed through the decades. Custom hot rods, muscle cars, JDM fever, the social media era, and of course, the future including EV and hybrid drivetrain tuning are all represented in some way. The story of modifying and tinkering with vehicles is almost as old as cars themselves.
The original article (Which you can find here - A Brief History of Car Modification: From the 1920s to Today), was so popular we decided to put a video together, because if there were ever a segment that deserved the full treatment, this one is up there. Enjoy the costumes of the eras, the cars of each decade, and naturally, the chaos of the 香蕉视频直播 team left to their own devices.
