DiscoSpud Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 you can view any time mate, I've just ran out of ratrods to post up, unless anyone wants to see more detail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastardo Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I ratted (lol) a die-cast 1934 Ford some time ago. Here it is "OOB": And here it is after I touched it: ¸ 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...

Bastardo Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 ...from 1920 to 1965 only no later cars then that! ... I hope this lil' beauty qualifies...

DiscoSpud Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 (edited) A few more of mine. (more detailed pics soon) Sorry for the lack of knowledge but, what cab is that? I love the look of it. 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.

Chuck Most Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Here's an older one of mine, a '24 Citroen, which had its 5-horse four banger replaced with an air-cooled inline three made from half a Corvair mill. Why? No idea at all... http://public.fotki.com/ChuckMost/rat-alley/24-citroen-c-bucket/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnslow Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenb Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 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.
