    I've gotten really interested in rat rods lately. I want to get one:D So if you know of any cheap:rolleyes: or body's frame's or an old jalopy you know of it would be great. I have cars that i would trade to get me one of them.

    Sounds like a personal problem. Rust should be fixed and rats should be exterminated. The HAMB is about traditional cars not rat rods.

    ok, To me a rat rod is an under built pile of scrap parts put together by someone that has no business building a car.
    This site is about...Spreading the gospel of traditional hot rods and customs to hoodlums world wide...
    Again, do you want a rusty rat rod or a traditional hotrod?
    If you want to build rusty junk go somewhere else.

    Maybe you just need to be steered in to a more HAMB friendly direction.
    Try to use the term HOTROD instead of ratrod.
    Just read and learn.

    Nicely done sir. Most people get past the Ratrods thing pretty quick when they're exposed to some awesome hot rods and realize the truth behind the Matrix...

    That coupe of yours is sweet looking. How long have you been working on it
     
  12. It might behoove you to look around a while before you make any more comments.

    And never speak of the other cars you own again.

    I do agree, the term is being used loosely to describe that which is neither traditional or rat, that's all.

    I think people around here get way to worked up over the term rat rod.

    rat rod
    rat rod
    rat rod
    rat rod
     

  24. Dude, keep your eyes and ears open. Look around for something that will fit your budget and mechanical ability. There are a lot of project cars out there that somebody started and gave up on. I usually find something great when I'm not looking for it, just dumb luck.

    Good luck, and stick around and learn. After all the shit talk, you will like this place.-MIKE;)

    My first car on the road was a 65 Chevy!

    Don't let these guy scare you off. Most of them were where you're at somewhere in the past. There's a lot of stuff here in Minnesnowta yet. If you're not a member of MSRA, join. The line chaser has a great want add section in it. Go the shows and swap meets. There is one in St. Peter coming up that is always a good place to look for projects. The Roadster meet is also getting close. You don't want to miss that one either. Look around for other rodders in your area. That's were you will find the best deals. There is a lot of good info on this site, you just have to learn how to play the game here.

    and here we go again, Maybe you don't learn quick enough. Rat Rods suck on donkeys all day long... :eek::D

    Get a clue, read a little, try set you goals a little higher than wanting a shitbox.
