  • hey if you like this, come check out my channel. just posted my first vid =)

  • what is a good base model for a rat rod? Im on a budget so not something real expensive and i want a coupe convertible.

    thanks

  • @caseybikes25 Don't know how much you intend to spend but any older Ford body would be good because you can get body parts for them. Coupe or Convertible (roadster) are hard to find but they are out there. Try Craig's list and there might be Rat Rod unfinished projects that are for sale cheap...??

  • 4:21- "Norris wrecking". - God has spoken. 

  • Good video man!

  • Name of song?

  • @BaronSvea "Alright" by Supergarage I found this on the music that is suplied by youtube...

  • @garyida556 Thx!

  • The awesomness of recycling

  • Ok cool thanks

  • 3;06 i lovet lovet nice i will trade mi jeep wangler for a rat rod bud in florida people is nut $12.000 for a rat rod not finish jeje keep dreaming people

  • I am looking for my first car.... How much do u think all the parts would cost? And how long do u think it will take? Awsome video by the way!

  • @ckctvids @ckctvids Most builders probably have a a lot of the parts just laying around their shop. They put them together based on a plan they have in their head. If you can fabricate, weld, do electrical yourself you will save a lot. I would guess most rat rods cost from $4,000 to $7,000 to build. You see them for sale around $8,000 to $12.000. As for how long it would take... Who knows, some gear heads could build one in a mater of weeks and some take a year or two to complete.

  • congratullations,i´m a brasilian rat rod entusiast!!!!

  • @TheDragnostalgia Thanks for the response. Brasilian... Wow these "YouTube" Vids get a lot of coverage..!! Glad you liked the slide show.

  • great song, great video!!!!

  • nice rats. 413 looks sweet the way it is!

  • @aricars6263 Old Model "T" Coupe at 4:13 is a car I found in the woods while deer hunting in Noth Idaho about 10 years ago. It is still there as far as I know.

  • 1:11 why for the love of God why

  • my subsitude bus driver, really likes rat rods, he brought one to us house, he said he got the engine and the shit underneath from the motorhome, found a really ould dodge, put them togehther, and oy it was awsome, he even to the tailgates lights from a cadilac and connected it with a pisten and screwed it to the back, he took propane, connected to the exughtst bipe , turned it on, and it was awsome to see the fire gomming out,

  • what songs did you use for this video?

  • @chieffy35 The music is from the list provided by "You Tube". I think the name of the band was "The garage band" or something like that. When I first started doing some video slide shows they would not let me use music other that what they had on file. Now it seem it is ok to use most anything available.....?

  • There are some really cool rat rods in this video. It's pretty cool to see some of the creations that people have made from basically a pile of junk in the woods.I love these things...very cool!

  • @1aauto Thanks for the comment on my slide show. I can tell you appreciate the "Rats".

  • GOTTA love the rats... I would bet that if you had a rat next to a $100k glammed out Trailer Queen that the rat would get much more attention than the wallet monkeys car anyday.

  • @weman3rd I hear ya... obviously rat rods are a low budget deal compared to the all out show cars. For most rat rod builders it is the fun of building a "one of a kind" car. Finding parts that work, engineering how they look and fit together. I say as long as they are built safe .... anything goes.

  • Dangerous smelly old rust buckets, totally useless and impractical shit heaps driven by beardys with bad breath and sweaty balls with knackered prostate glands..

  • @Draxindustries1 Which begs the question... Why would you even watch a video slide show on rat rods ????

  • @Draxindustries1 I'm pretty sure I'm not a beardy with bad breath and sweaty balls with knackered prostate glands... I'm 16. Rat's beat the shit out of a show car any day! And talk about impractical? whats impractical are the shiny trailer queens that only get driven on and off the trailer. Their all the same.. at least rats have character..

  • Hell yeah

  • 23 sec is the best.

  • Now THERE is the ORIGINAL LOW RIDER!!

  • 2.44 the best

  • @DnX5  Yes, that Model A has a nice "stance"....!!

  • 2:58 is Greg Baums 1919 Willy's T!!!!!!!!!

  • Great video. Thousands of memories/thoughts/dreams/wishe­s etc...

  • cool rides my friend. contrary to what junction666 wrote, we DO have many ratrods in the uk. hes obviously not going to the right places, e.g rockabilly rave, hemsby etc.........

  • @andytheted Yes, I know the UK has many rat rods. I have seen a few on youtube videos. You guys have some great hot rods...!!!

  • @andytheted Thanks for the venues Andy! Haven't seen any anywhere on the south coast! I would still save up and go to the States for the real thing though...........believe me they are truly amazing! Who said I'm a guy?

  • @andytheted Glad you liked it...! Rat Rods are cool.

  • We don't have ratrods here in the U.K. but saw a fantastic chopped and channeled 3 window coupe at a tin and tats meet in Long Beach while on holiday in June. To me it was exactly what real hotrodding is about better than any of the megabuck motors at the show and more than anything else....Pure Fun! Great video.........thanks for posting..........you Americans are so lucky!

  • @junction666 Hey thanks for the comment on my video slide show. I know we are lucky to live here. I am from the old school. I too love the simple "model A Ford coupe, chopped and channeled with a monster engine. That is what hot rodding is all about.

  • Wonderful, mind-blowing ratz!

  • Man I wish I had a garage to build something like these in.

  • @chewser117 ... You and me both. I have a lot of parts ... like an engine, trans and a lot of misc. parts but my garage is just too small.

  • Whoa.. "idiots"... That seems a little strong! I assume IF you owned a "Hot 'Rod" it would probably be a "Trailer Queen"...!!!

  • @garyida556 Yes I have a Traditional Hot Rod and it's never been on a trailer. I drive it

    all summer bitch. Billetproof, Sins of Steel, and the NY Rumblers show.

  • @kraetz Exactly what I was trying to say.....lucky if you see any hotrods at all here in the U.K. unless it's on a Saturday or Sunday the weather is good and "You know the right places to go to!!!!" What the f*ck does that mean? The guys we met in Long Beach last year drove their cars all week to and from work and just drove that little bit faster at weekends!.....the late Saturday night street race was brilliant..........sirens were going for hours!

  • No such thing as a Rat Rod.... Traditional Hot Rods you idiots !

  • Rat Rod is more than a fever... is the pursuit of the roots of the Hot Rod, when "Gear Head" people used to buy cheap parts at the local junk yard to build their cars. The cars should be fast and inexpensive. After decades, the Hot Rod moviment became too elitist, with "zilion" dollars cars, lots of Billet parts and fuel injection and stuff. Let' go back when the whole thing was plain fun!!!!!

  • @MultiDekard Well said my friend....!!!!

  • Anyone know the make and year of the body at 3:31?

    Cheers.

  • @broomy51 Looks like a 1929 or 1930 Ford 2-door sedan.

  • long live rust :D

  • Seems to me that the term "Rat Rod" comes from the fact that most of the cars are made out of ratty old, rusty parts found out behind old barns and garages and in places where rats would live. That being said, I think a "Rat Rod" reflects the builder's desire to make a car that is a one-of-a-kind. No need to invest a lot of money on $2,000 paint jobs or fancy upholstery, just make it safe and drivable.

    They are just cool...

  • @garyida556 well maybe not exactly safe lol

  • @bassbaboonmitch I stand corrected.... Not very many would probably be considered "SAFE"....!!

  • @garyida556 you would not want to be in a crash with one of those indeed

  • @garyida556 Yea, most of them are pretty....far from safe. A lot of rat rods or traditional hot rods are more dangerous than motorcycles, because in a rat rod you would most probobly get crushed, because they are a little bit tight, unless you have a roll-cage. But that doesn`t make them any less awesome, because they already are the essence of bad in automotive culture, and... we are all going to die anyways, so why not do it in a demonic ride? Cheers

  • so what exactly is a rat rod?

  • loved 4:28 wish i could find one of those in a yard but the car im starting to work on is my dads 27 t coupe which was built by frank curry. I love rat rods and hope to get a sedan one day but planning to get my dads car running for wen i turn 16. hopefully wen im all done with the project im going to put up a slide show of all the work ive done. i would love to chop it but im going to keep it how it is since the history of it. After this im going to start looking and saving for a 34 3 window

  • @SlayerMasterFilms Thanks for the cimment on my video slide show..... Good luck on your 27-T project. Also I hope you get you 34-3 window coupe. I had a 34 Ford 5 window coupe that I made a C/Gasser out of years ago. That was a fun car. Maybe you can chop your 34 when you get one. That would be wicked.!!!

  • 3:42 is deffinatly my favorite

  • i have to 32s ford rat rods

  • @corkguy09 That is exactly two more that I have. Thanks for commenting on my video slide show!

  • To me, Ratrods are built for one reason, to beat the hell out of , to be able to beat it and not worry about what might break, cause if you built it right, it not gonna break like the recyclable generic crap the flood the market with nowadays. I also have a '62 Galaxie 500 XL, '67 Galaxie 500, ans '64-'66-'74-'77 Ford trucks to build just to beat around in. I don't care for candy coated paint jobs, or scallops , just give me that old Rustoleum flat black, and some old style flame job.

  • @madbalrog ... Amen to that...!!!

  • This is a cool video, for anyone (like me) who's in the process of building a rat rod. I've been collecting parts for 5 years , have enough parts to build 2 ratrods ,a '29 and a '31 roadster. Using mostly vintage parts , like '40 juice brakes on a Model A axle, '77 Ford F-100 rearend with original Model A rear buggy spring, powered by a '74 302/C6 original mated combo from a Ford van. The best thing about Ratrods, nobody has one just like yours. Always a one of a kind built within your budget.

  • @madbalrog .. Hey thanks for the comments on the video slide show. It sounds like you have a great start to creating your "dream" rat rod. I agree with you that rat rods are unique and cool. Good luck.

  • There is raw beauty in their ugliness

  • @Guodyboy Hey, thanks for the comment. I think you just hit the nail on the head that "There is raw beauty in their ugliness". You almost need a tetanus shot to get in a rat rod.

  • Perfect rides!!!

    I live in brazil and love this kind of car!!

    Shame that here is almost impossible to find parts to build one, and our legislation is stupid and does not allow cars like this to run on the road.

    But even so, I'll have one some day, Yehaaa!!!

  • @IcaroGrings ...Thanks for the comments on my video/slideshow. I hope you do get to build one someday.

  • I wanna build one someday. looks like real fun

  • @FormulaDGoSpeedGo If I had a place to do the work I would have one by now.. It would be a blast.

  • the one at 0: 50 is cool looking so is the one at 1:01 and the one at 1:59 and the one at 2:33 and the one at 2:45 and the one at 2:58 and the one at 3:43

  • You've got some great ones on here. Fell in love with these cars sometime back and would love to have a garage somewhere to create my own. My girls uncle has a sweet collection of Model A's at his farm. Just where to start I suppose.

  • @SloppyJoez Yes, I am in the same situation Joe. I have some parts like a good 4-bolt main early Cfhev 350 V-8 and some other parts but no place to do the work....Some day maybe.

  • why would you want one of these? Why not get an STI or a supra

  • @Adawgrussian Here in the USA we have what we call "Gear Heads". These are people who love to work on cars and build them from whatever they have available. They use any old parts that might be free or at very little cost. Building a car like a "Rat Rod" is challenging and very rewarding. The fabricating and engineering involved is considerable.... Crude and Rusty is good!!! Hope this gives you some Idea of why a person would build a "One of a kind" Rat Rod.

  • @garyida556 well I still prefer an STI or a supra you can keep your redneck cars

  • @Adawgrussian We will, thank you.

  • @garyida556 OK.... I will.

  • @Adawgrussian Because its fun to build a car to a different taste.

  • @elefantboys yup. I dunno why ar guys just dont get along lol. I drive an s13 BUT I wanna build one of these so badly! im fiending lol

  • use one in thease salt winters here and it will fall apart by rust in a sec :P

  • are white tires original or ?

  • thanx for puttin up the slideshow man! i see you ripped a couple cars from osr's pages to make it (the f-bomb tub and the hot rod lincoln model A wrecker, actually an aussie rat powered by a blown lincoln flat v-12, that n the early riders t dragster) but one thing you made a mistake on, friend. NO RAT ROD SHOULD EVER BE ON A TRAILER! thats shit. a real rat looks the way it does because its more important to run right than to look pretty. that, and ifs doesnt belong on a rat, s-10 frame shit.

  • @greezeyD You said it right......NO RAT ROD SHOULD EVER!!!!.... BE ON A TRAILER! i MAY HAVE TO DELETE THAT PHOTO....

  • thx for yr kind word garyida,

    i'm a big fan of old american cars since my younth (Im 54 yrs now),

  • Watching this video made me proud to be an American.

    We invented the car culture.

  • @scdevon Thanks for the response. And yes, I too believe as you do. If you grew up in America you had an opportunity to get involved with the car culture. I owned about 15 cars before I was 25 years old! It was great.

  • @scdevon You are welcome. Glad to have you as a friend!

  • i luv very much the rat rods, Patrick from france

  • @831sublime .... Looks like a 32 Ford 5 window coupe to me???? tI looks like it might have a modified trunk.... Kind of hard to tell.

  • man there were kick ass rat rods in there. i love rat rods. awesime vid man

  • @daniel55645 Hey....Thanks for watching. I too love Rat Rods and would love to build one some day. I have a lot of parts and just have to start putting them together.

  • @garyida556 im planning on building one but cant find a body that i want. id like to get one of old 4 door box styles. what body style do you have?

  • @daniel55645 I don't have a body yet either.... I have a complete Chev 350 4- bolt main with hedders and a truck 4 speed manual trans and some other parts. Still looking for the "perfect" body!!

  • @garyida556 ah that sounds awesome man. its hard to find the perfect body style that you want

  • the one at 1:01 i wish i had i like it!

  • @jaobscott12  Yes, that Ford Sedan all chopped is bad ass!

  • @jaobscott12 i didnt like the tires on it. they were too big. i like rat rods with skinny tires in front

  • Comment removed

  • I don't know what it is..the first time I saw one I new I had to have one. Then in the last year I have bought 3 to rebuild and make rat rods out of. It's one hell of a hobby I'll tell ya that! Great video by the way. Good job. 

  • What year is the 0:56 car? It's a Ford?

  • @silvermystic2001 ....I would say it is a 27 or 28 Model T Ford.  That would be my guess. Thanks for your comment and yes, Rat Rods are bad ass!
