Welcome from another Canuk. If you want to know about rat rods, go to the hamb. For god's sake do an introduction or lurk for a while before joining. They crucify newbies that don't introduce themselves. By the way, guys with rat rods prefer not to call them that. They feel it is a derogatory term. Old style hot rods is what they are. Devoid of billet and mega bucks. Usually safely built, but bare bones and in primer. Nutz
