In my Quality Engineering days we worked to a philosophy of, "Fitness for use". Design and build to fit the consumer's expectations, and maybe a little bit more. In hot rodding some people want to go to extremes. That's fine. Just a different expectation.
Before a person builds or buys a hot rod it would be wise to write down what you expect it to be/do. "I want my hot rod to: (fill in the blanks)". You'll soon realize there are trade offs.
