From what the Shifters of Southern California created, to this. Things have definitely changed. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, a Rat Rod was a traditional Hot Rod that lacked certain elements such as paint and/or upholstery. Those Shifters cars had neat vintage Olds,Caddy,Pontiac, & Flathead engines. Even the owners were a throw back to the 50s with their Ducktail hair , white t-shirts, and rolled denims. Somewhere along the line however, things changed. Rat Rods went from period correct nostalgic time machines, to these Mad Max Warrior nonsensical cars that are purposely built to be rusty, and have several different era's thrown together. People like Welder Up perpetuate this movement. Thank God for magazines like Rodders Journal.
Just because they're rusty, doesn't really mean anything. Still have all the legal requirements on most of them. Plus requirements for old vehicles were different. If it didn't have the equipment from the factory, they can't make you add something that wasn't there in 1930 or whenever
If you're willing to make a $5,000 donation I could get copywritten music for this video. Any music that is licensed will otherwise get flagged and deleted by RUclips unless I have a license for the music. Feel free to send me your contact email and I'll get ahold of you for your donation.
I love the video, love your truck I had a 64 a lot like yours, my was black, green metalflake roof , white walls, powerglide 327 v8, airbags and I miss a lot.I haven't had the a 31/ 32 Chevy but I'm working on it. You have great taste in cars keep it up. Oh and more hardcore punk music in your videos would be amazing Haha jk ☠
haha thanks man! I use music that I like and have permission to use. But if anyone ever wants to donate money so I can use licensed music, that would be fine by me! lol
The mud trucks were cool. The Tempest 6bt 👍. Humpback Vdub 👍 The gooseneck hauler...umm.. do you actually tow down the fwy with that??? The chopped Chevy with the Detroit I've seen. Bad ass. The 56 F100 w/ bbc is my style. Rat rod manure spreader = oxymoron rite der 🤠 56 gmc coe lcf.... I like 👍😁👍
I am glad to see those iconic Minnesota rat rods. I am sad about GSTA got cancelled this year :( Hope everything going back to normal till Mopars in the Park.
I can't afford a big one and married with 4 kids. So going small building a wheelbarrow kart with 2 twin vanguards and stuff the yard and junkyard. I'll post a videos when done. Build a mud mower out of junk around the house. Wife said my stuff got to go. But grandpa told another man junk is another man treasure. So stop in view the builds. Bty nice video and ur friend rip.
I am working on a full length tribute video for Justin & the deathrat, but it's taking a lot of time. It will be here though at some point though, I promise!

If anyone would like to donate $20,000-$30,000 for the rights to use "good" licensed music in this video, I would be more than willing to accept and use it!!! Until then, I will use my friend produces and has given me the rights to legally use in videos. I like the music. It's not for everyone, but neither is my channel.
I totally agree. I hit the mute button right away. A big part of hotrods is the sound. If a person wants to listen to music go watch a music video. Not only that, if you have to play music , wouldn't you pick the Beach Boys ?? The sound of each hot rod just enhanses the feel of hotrodding.
I WANT TO BUILD ONE BUT UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE TO SELL ONE TO BUILD ONE I HAVE A 46 MERC COUPE ALL ORIGINAL RUNNING AN DRIVING THATS THE ONE THATS GOING TO START THE BUILD
Did you click the HD button? When exactly was it grainy? I have been having internet problems. Took 5 days to upload this video and some of the quality was lost, but I didn't notice any horrible spots. Thanks
These vehicles are very nice. You can see that the people who built them to a lot of time, money and effort into it. It's just a pity the music are up to 💩
I wonder how many viewers (including the person that posted this video) know the history / origin of Rat Rods. Do any of you have a clue who coined the phrase, who were the first people to start the resurgence in nostalgic hot rodding, when, and where it all started? Its a shame, because if any of you were passionate about this, your cars might look different. Todays cars are a mockery of the original Rat Rods from the late 1980s / early 1990s. Cars (like what are shown in this video ) are cartoonish rusty piles of junk with modern boring small black Chevy engines in them.
Oh is that so? I happen to be one of the most published rat rod writers in the game. I wrote for Rat Rod magazine and other rat rod based sources for years. Where is your "rat rod"? There is a difference between hot rodding and rat rodding.
Also, very few of these have "boring small block chevy engines" in them. Many of them are cummins, big blocks and other wonky motors. Too bad you don't know what you're looking at.
@@Tinman2Kustoms Your response speaks volumes. That worthless excuse of a magazine isn't worth the paper its written on, and more importantly, hasn't been around that long. But, getting back to my point, you never answered my question as to the origin of "Rat Rod". . Go ahead, I'll wait...............
Would think thats it only in America your alloved to drive these widow makers on public roads - and the wiev from inside out looking through all the piping and blowers and turbo getting in the way of clear sight i would not drive near one of these sorry looking pieces of metal
You yanks build some "kickarse" cars but you've got a lot to learn about burnouts. The one at 4:00 wouldn't even make it past the first round here in Australia and the other two wouldn't get to the semis. Look up " Summernats, Canberra, Burnout comp" for some examples.
I'll gladly take monetary donations to pay for better, licensed music for the free videos I upload. If you're willing to donate the $20,000-30,000 I'd need to formally license songs for this video, let me know!
Such vehicles and activities arecausing me to loose interest in modified vehicles. I have been active in the hobby since 1961 when I started modifying Ford Falcons to improve handling. Modern compact cars now exceed what I wanted to achieve so that dampened my interest. But bolting junk onto a chassis with questionable drive ability and burning up tires sereves no purpose. Just a waste of bodies and body parts!
Rat rods are some of my favorites because of the creativity that goes into them

Right, and the complete absence of any rules makes it so much more diverse and interesting.
One is only bound by one's imagination and what's available,right?@davidwillis3913

Thanks much!
Thanks for the video. Great way to get our minds off the current shitstorm for a little while. I hope to build a rat truck someday.
Well spoken my friend.

17:07 wonder what kind of mpg he gets in his 2 stroke truck?
These are not my cup of tea, however..I do realize how clever some are and very talented people building them.
Drink coffee then,lol
Good to see you posting again been a (long) while ! 😕
Haha yep! Just no time. This video took 6 months of occasional editing
Yes its finished. And yes its already painted.
What’s the bands name that was playing a gig around the 15:45-16:00 min mark. Anyone know? Sounded super familiar (that guitar riff anyways

why does every video have to have background "music"? how about no sound track at all?
@@Tinman2Kustoms You have a vivid imagination.
Como se faz com a lataria para deixar neste aspecto de ferrugem? Precisa usa verniz por cima?
Thanks man, lots of inspiration right there. I love your truck! SLAM! haha those sparks too!
Thanks man! Glad ya dig the video!

Was that lima ohio with the flame throwing cars? Looks alot like one I went to a long time ago.

I guess before working on these make sure your tetanus shot is up to date hehe
I love rat rods...
Wow, so many nice creations and well filmed. Only the music... awful
Loved it all but the music! The music made me want to swing from the shower curtain rod via my belt!!
i agree wholeheartedly. this dopey "music" does not complement this genre of vehicles at all. why not some vintage rock 'n' roll or rockabilly?

The Cessna rat would be good with a Messerschmidt engine.
Big Nasty?
Hermosos.
I couldn't watch it with the " music" on.

Watched with volume down.
