Rat rod hondas wtf

[chessboxer]

I don't like any rat rods, and many of those cars are very ricey, but because they have a flat paint scheme, they get some love.

Silly to me, but I am just one man, and I drive a camo car, so what do I know.

[deevergote]

That's the only car I saw on the first few pages that really captures the oldschool rat-rod vibe, while still looking like an import. that car is sick.

chop top with a neww zz motor with straight pipes. hell yeah ican see it. do some sweet old school pin stripes over the rust, and be sure to put bullet holes in it,, thats bad ass,
i to like the flat black and green but i like it better when some of that old factory paint is on thier and it's rusting all around it.

then go back with some flat satin clear over it to keep it from rusting out to quickly. i can see it. and i wana see more modern rat rods.

the whole idea was to use what you had to make the fastest thing you could, while looking kewl doing it.. scrapping the ground.

zz motor? if u wanna go true old school. 283sbc w/ tri carb set up w/ a powerglide and a 9" ford rear end. nice side pipes. maybe some Ford F1 rims? w/ the chrome "beauty" trim w/ candy red over them and black rim.

id do flat black w/ red pin stripe flames. 6" chop top and 6" streach to the cab, some old bomber seats and keg fuel tank


i did some measurements and read that the model a body would fit a 83-91 s10 frame.

the thing is that they all try to hard when they do it.
and a rusted hood on a car with nice paint?
i love rat rods though

here is the one we built.

all brand new tubular frame, brand new zz motor, eveerything it was all brand new shiney metal but we used acid and other methods to make it look 50 years old.



unfortunately i don't have pics with the bed on it, because it's a convertable truch, and yes thats a nascar quick change rear end with almost the shortest gears they make in it.



unfortunatley the owner was having us build a cab for it.

[kc8enb07]

see that rear end just kills the idea. i see tons of nascar quick change rear ends in the junkyard

other wise beautiful

[KeeleDesign]

not this rear end. this sucker cost $8,000 and if your finding them in junkyard you better grab em up, they are worth more than gold.
