Many of this rare breed are classic car owners, aficionados of the century-plus, distinguished history of the motor vehicle. They know the legendary models, and they've decided to bring them back to the road. It's one kind of conspicuous consumption few people resent. Maybe that's because they sense the labor it takes to bring antiques back to life.
Kit cars can include these classic cars, but like not all classics are it cars, not all kit cars are classics. They can be any make or model, though usual it'll be something sporty. They're assembled one piece at a time by an enthusiastic amateur with an instruction manual. The real artists among those amateurs know when to break ranks with the manual, and create something never seen before.
Stock car racing has its origins with the renegade mechanics and drivers during the Prohibition 1920s. Moonshiners would adjust their cars to be faster and to be able to carry more illegal liquor. Eventually these daredevils began to race each other, and stock car racing was born. Today, amateur racing is a popular recreation, benefiting from no small amount of Hollywood glamor.
