32 Rat Rod

ok. Let me know what you think... Just finished my Rat. Gotta admit this took longer than any other model I've done and was also more involved. This one contained many firsts for me and I'm proud of this baby!

Good job! The rust and welds look pretty good. I really like the suicide shifter! You better watch it.... I built my first "dirty" rod back in November and I can't think about building anything else right now! Rods are really addictive!

EVIL, WICKED, MEAN and NASTY!!

You should be very proud!! All of the weathering and the weld lines around the chop look GREAT!! The suicide shifter screams "I'm dangerous!! Get the ____ out of my way!!".

Nice job on the velocity stacks!! The exhaust looks like it was made from old steel drain pipe!! Too freakin' cool!!

Yes, I see the hose clamps, the bailing wire holding on the license plate and of course the cowl steering setup!!

You'll get a lot of looks and comments on that one at the model shows!! The whole thing just screams RAT!!

nice work, this has given me a few ideas for my own projects! I will admit, rat rods are probably my favorite things to build.

THANKS for all the great, positive comments everyone! I greatly appreciate all the wonderful feedback and I'm glad you like my new Rat. It really adds to my satisfaction level.

I agree, these are addictive. I've already started a second one (not as low this time) and am tossing around a few ideas for more. I've also picked up some hot rad mags featuring rat rods.

THANKS EVERYONE!
