I ratted (lol) a die-cast 1934 Ford some time ago.

Here it is "OOB":

My weathering technique progressed a lot since this Ford and the very next rat that I'll work on will look much better. I hope... :unsure:

...from 1920 to 1965 only no later cars then that! ...

I hope this lil' beauty qualifies... :unsure:

A Mr. Hobby Ghia I worked on about two years ago:

Lol I knew someone would ask, believe it or not it's a chopped up 39 Chevy Coupe less the trunk area. I think 39 chevs are ugly, so i ratted it and added some dualie white walls on the rear and a Tom daniels dropped drag axle and front runners to the stock frame, coupled with a 34 ford grille it came out quite good.

Hey Chuck,

All of your rats are interesting to say the least, cutting the Corvair in half is great, now I have to build a 6 cylinder along that line, was wondering if you remembered where the headers for the 32 Chevy came from.

Thanks, Robert

Here are 2 rats that I built a few years ago from my spare parts box pieces. They're a little dusty which just weathers them a little more. I also included a picture of my 1:1 ratrod. It's my 29 Essex, small block mopar, 9" ford rear, mustang II front end. Daily driver. KenDSCF0652.jpgDSCF0653.jpgDSCF0654.jpgDSCF0655.jpg
