Building Hot Rods by Brent Vandervort - owner of Fatman Fabrications - combines fifteen years of technical columns written by Brent for the Goodguys Gazette. The columns are designed to answer questions that Hot Rod builders have regarding: Planning, Suspension, Steering, Brakes, Engine Choices, and Fabrication Skills - Brent's advice covers everything from how to avoid bump-steer when choosing and installing the steering rack, to trouble-shooting issues with a newly installed disc-brake system.

An engineering degree, and thirty-plus years of experience designing and building some of the most innovative hot rod chassis components in the world, give Brent Vandervort a unique perspective on the technical side of hot rodding.

With 144 pages, over 50,000 words and 200 photos and illustrations, Building Hot Rods: 30 Years of Advice from Fatman Fabrication's Brent VanDervort, gives both new, and experienced, hot rodders and car builders the information they need. Whether it's help installing Air Bags on an old Ford, or planning the construction of a brand new Hot Rod, the answers that current car builders need are all here.
