The Ford Street Rod traces back to the hot rod culture, evolving from customized vintage Fords.

These were often pre-1949 models, modified for performance and aesthetics.

Ford never officially produced a "Street Rod" model.

The trend involved enthusiasts rebuilding classic Ford bodies with modern components.

There is no direct successor, as it's a custom build, not a production model.

A little-known fact is that many early street rodders sourced parts from junkyards. They ingeniously adapted components from various makes and models to create unique, high-performance machines.
