What Is a Rat Rod? - Hot Rod


Another hobby fad

Ratty Muscle Cars

I've seen some entertaining rat rod builds over the years that have caused either a closer look at the creativity or a chuckle. Just how some of them passed a safety inspection to get plated is a bit of open question. I'm not a fan of the high end money no object hot rod creations which leave me cold.

There is one guy I do admire. He comes down here as a Snowbird always with a new creation. My admiration comes from that he owns some kind of salvage operation up in NY state and comes up with these insane pieced-together vehicles buying nothing and just using his own fabrication skills and creativity.
My favorite was an old Autocar cab on a stretched '96 Roadmaster frame.
