    What is a Rat Rod

     



    Everyone has a different idea as to what is a Rat Rod......For me it's a classic that doesn't need to follow any other type of build. Use what ever you got. leave the body raw and make the guts work like a swiss clock.

    Dude,

    Get rid of the spoke wheels! Steelies with baby moons are the way to go. OR.... reverse the stock rims........

    Love the rat rod.................great job! [except for the whhels]

    Oilstain, I agree with Kolie about the wheels. I think they look too modern on such a cool ride. I have steelies and WWW on my Sedan but I also think old Torque Thrust 5 spokes are kool and look the part better than what you are running. I like your ride BTW. Here's mine...
