Hot Rod Gang is a 1958 drama film directed by Lew Landers and starring John Ashley.

[3] The production includes performances by rock and roll musician Gene Vincent,[4] and was the final theatrical feature directed by the incredibly prolific Landers, whose career dated to the mid-1930s.

John Abernathy III needs to lead a blameless life to inherit his father's estate, but he also engages in hot rod car racing.

"[6] The Monthly Film Bulletin said "the comedy misfires woefully, the performances are overstated to the point of caricature and the general level is decidedly moronic.

"[7] Diabolique magazine wrote that "Ashley's limitations are exposed a little in this film – I don’t think he was a great comic actor – but it is entertaining and good-hearted.
