Difference between Custom car and Hot rod

Custom car vs. Hot rod

A custom car is a passenger vehicle that has been substantially altered to improve its performance, often by altering or replacing the engine and transmission; made into a personal "styling" statement, using paintjobs and aftermarket accessories to make the car look unlike any car as delivered from the factory; or some combination of performance modifying and appearance changes. Hot rods are typically old, classic American cars with large engines modified for linear speed.
