Ok, we're all Hot Rodders. Most people don't understand the passion and dedication we have for our cars. At the top of the list of the non-understanding folk are bankers! Wish I had a buck for every potential customer over the last 40+ years who would just love to build himself or have built a Hot Rod, then goes to the bank for a loan only to get told that banks don't do Hot Rods!!!

We have our own forums, our own shoes, our own insurance, our own lifetsyle, maybe it's time we had our own credit union!!!! Hot Rod Federal Credit Union!!! Now, I'm no banker and don't remember much from the biznezz classes I had to take in school, but it should work, right??? Kind of like borrowing money to build a house, the lender gives you a bit, then you have to show some progress before he loans you more....

Potential investors and members would be everyone involved with Hot Rods as a hobby, profession, or just an interest. Could it work, would it work???? I don't know, just throwing it out for discussion, I guess.... Maybe someone with a working knowledge of banking might get interested......

Heck, let's have a poll about it too!!!!
