Although I don't like rat rods generally, at least some of the ones I have seen, I agree that they are a category unto themselves. I think that there should be a term for the 50+ thousand dollar car made to look like a rat rod. don't you guys in the community have a derogatory name for guys that farm out all the work? just like HD riders call the richies that just buy the bike all done up and only ride it on weekends or trailer it from town to town "R.U.B.'s" Rich Urban Bikers.

The truck that we are working on the guy did as a rat rod, mechanically it was sound and done right, but cosmetically other than stickers on the window he didn't do anything. Heck, it even has old street signs inside on a couple of spots, old school.
