STORY SUMMARY:
Over the last ten years there has been a dramatic shift in the way people look at their cars, trucks and SUV’s. Nowadays, more and more automobiles are being seen as extensions of their owner’s personality.
An exploding segment of the specialty automotive parts business is young – 16 to 24 year olds. Industry insider’s say there hasn’t been a young generation with this much interest in automotive personalization since the original hot-rodders of the 50’s.
The beneficiaries of this newfound love of cars have been the specialty automotive equipment industry. Makers of such products as custom wheels, advanced electronics, and performance engine parts are allowing many people to turn their passion for hot rodding into successful businesses.
