Cheers been into them since seeing them in magazines as a kid in eighties. Then 10 years ago watching on UA-cam. I never realised until this video that the reason the bodies are styled like they are is to keep weight down. Before the internet I had never seen them race but my bedroom walls were covered in posters of them . Thanks so much.
Not anymore actually. You're allowed to modify or even build a car from scratch nowadays, if you want. But it must be a serious proper build that works and is safe out in traffic with functioning brakes and lights and such. If it passes SFRO-inspection you do not have to "wreck it and build another one" to get that "road legal permitt"......
I love rats but I'm more of a FACTORY rat guy. As most of the hotrod cars are becoming more scarce in their original form. Gotta preserve the gems as well as having fun.😁
video is great... major suggestion, lose the commentary and music... leave it all ORIGINAL AUDIO... your audio add-on fucks it all up... i love the sound of straight piped diesels... however, this upload doesn't meet the "soundporn" criteria.... MUSIC and PURE MOTOR SOUNDS.... DO not go well together, watched it halfway in... couldn't stand hearing the commentary AND the music OVER THE MOTORS SCREAMING IN THE VIDEOS!
i guess Im asking randomly but does anybody know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb lost my account password. I would love any tips you can offer me
@Christian Otto i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Agreed!!! Cars great, middle class talker not so great unless you drive some sort of Chinese built car , live under a rock for the last 20 year's or on death row with no knowledge of the outside world. ☠☠☠
The guy narrating the video is just someone with a good voice that can read well, he's probably never even seen the video or cares anything about what's in it, he just gets paid to read.
"Most of them are only driven occasionally or not at all." Oh yeah? One day I'll turn an old volvo or an another car into a shoestring hot rod you can drive daily, just you wait and see, my friend.
you should switch brands. Instead of smoking up the tires, someone should make some fake "spinners" and put tubes next to the wheels, blowing out smoke, ...and sparks?
Same goes for bikes at bike rallies. You see some cubicle sitter pull up with a trailer, unload his customized Harley and then put on his vest with a thousand patches. Then you see some old guy sporting a 10 inch long white beard, rolling up on his slightly raked Knucklehead. The oil all over his jeans and bugs on his helmet says he rode his all the way there!
I guess that's why I like the "future shock" aesthetic most. basically take a hot rod but replace the mad max rustic aesthetic with slim paint jobs and all the modern insides and stuff. Basically get the perfect fusion of the creativity and awesome imagination you get with hot rod shapes and sizes... But with the modern benefits and comforts and safety of modern vehicles. That's what I hope to make someday... If I ever get around to it heheh.
Drive faster.... the rain can't catch up. Seriously, most of these cars aren't driven in the rain. Kinda like a motorcycle. Only the brave drive in weather.
there should be rules for rat rods like you cant have a crew to do all the work.for you to make one and it should use old vehicles and you cant spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to make one
Cool! So I just need to pass a crash test certification in Sweden in order to obtain the permit from the government to use my customized vehicle. But my only question is: Should I hit the wall with my forehead or with my but?
I realize I'm late to this party but what the fuck? The cars and trucks were all badass. But the dude talking doesn't know shit about the hot rod world. I can't begin to correct ALL the wrong things that were said. But I'll give a hint, MOST custom cars are driven quit a bit. Many of us "daily" our cars when the weather's decent. The number of guys that hardly drive them is extremely low. I'll agree with another commenter, great video, get rid of the commentary. You don't know what you're talking about.
Cant you rich Americans just be happy that your car looks cool without saying its for speed? Or performance? And who cares if its spins its back wheels, grow up.

Many of these resembled my everyday cars of my younger years.
Paint? Who needs it.
WOW ! You mean I have to pay taxes, for plates, and insurance on my Hot Rod ? Good to know.
Madmax comes to mind when seeing this awesome rides!👌😎👍
Sweden be like: "custom built? let's wreck it first so you cant drive it"

I love em all, but my #1 thing is rat- rod's and rat -bikes. 🎃👋
Great video!!! The VW's skull intakes were cool AF 👍
I love the rat rod rollback, you don't see those anymore! 😎😎😎
Very funny narration here ..... C B D makes it better !
Sick diesels
That beer can went all "Christine" .
I love rats but I'm more of a FACTORY rat guy. As most of the hotrod cars are becoming more scarce in their original form. Gotta preserve the gems as well as having fun.😁
The ones who trailer are known in my world as yuppies. Enjoy your trailer Queens
It happens with motorcycles too. At some destinations like "Tail of the Dragon'' guys trailer their bike to the place. I rode mine there.
The vid is loaded with cool iron!!!!!!!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
There's actually no iron in the video.

@Christian Otto It worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
@Aidan Johnathan Glad I could help :)
Grabbed first seven seconds.
Nice cars
Dopey narration
Agreed. Obviously not a "car guy".
LOL! I love the 💀 on the VW carb!
Way way way Cool!!!!
Honestly.. Burnouts and Doughnuts are like.. Smoke on the water and Paranoid..
Good job 🇨🇦
Real hot rod guys drive the shit out of their cars
The cars are awesome. The commentary not so much. Sounded like an upper middle class white guy. That knew little about what he was talking about
Agreed!!! Cars great, middle class talker not so great unless you drive some sort of Chinese built car , live under a rock for the last 20 year's or on death row with no knowledge of the outside world. ☠☠☠
Plenty of middle class (working class is middle class) white guys in the hot rod scene that are genuine enthusiasts.
If ya goin to talk shit about ratrods, at least do your homework
The guy narrating the video is just someone with a good voice that can read well, he's probably never even seen the video or cares anything about what's in it, he just gets paid to read.
Probably? Maybe? Could be ?
i love that slam truck
This is GREAT!! A superb rat rod keep it up
Some of the Rusty finishes are NOT genuine rust . Amazing Airbrush paint jobs . Automotive Art .
0x
They've even got wraps that can be applied that look exactly like rusting steel.
"Most of them are only driven occasionally or not at all."
Oh yeah? One day I'll turn an old volvo or an another car into a shoestring hot rod you can drive daily, just you wait and see, my friend.
Yeah right , I'm going to let them crash me rod to if it passes 🤣
I don't usually smoke, but when I do. it's Goodyears.........
you should switch brands. Instead of smoking up the tires, someone should make some fake "spinners" and put tubes next to the wheels, blowing out smoke, ...and sparks?
Favorite is that 34 that you first show The big tire man that's it
Black butii
Mine too, been nice to have had a "walk around"!
(thumbnail-pic) from THAT angle, it makes it look like the rest of the car got squashed under the weight of the engine they put on it
He's also missing an exhaust pipe lmao it's a V8 with some photoshopped exhaust
Some will disagree with the narrator. These are "rat-rods." The traditional hot-rod is usually painted pretty. And have few strange parts.
Cool rides I build my cars to drive I don't build one to trailer around I call those car owners trailer queens

American version of Mad Max 👍🦘🇦🇺
So Sweden has to crash your custom for it to pass roadability standards there ?
"Sorry but I'm afraid you failed" 💥
I love the rat rod look but I'd hate to be in one in a wreck.

That COE should turn his diff lock on
Might wanna add another exhaust pipe in your video cover picture lmao, it's a V8 on that old rat rod
Flatheads have a shared exhaust port so they 3 pipes per side.
America!!!!!!
Great rides. Thanks for good stuff.
Супер, не то что наши лады

These cars are strange. I like them.
What do you do if it start to rain with the exposed engine? Do you have to replace it, or can it drained?
Drive faster.... the rain can't catch up. Seriously, most of these cars aren't driven in the rain. Kinda like a motorcycle. Only the brave drive in weather.
U find a gas station n park and wait lol
Who builds a rat rod strictly for the showroom without any intention on driving it? Hot rod or street rod maybe.
Guy sounds like he should be selling shoes at Walmart.
I dont care who you are the VW rat with the trailer was awesome.
Awesome rides
Good luck promoting and shoot more in the world.

Don't narrate....people don't like it!
facts
HEAR, HEAR ! 👏👏👏
Hot rod was a shortened phrase for hopped up roadster.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Nice
there should be rules for rat rods like you cant have a crew to do all the work.for you to make one and it should use old vehicles and you cant spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to make one
You work for the government, don't you?
There are no rules in hot rodding!
@@LivingOnCash rat rods there should be just avergae joes doing there own work
The only rule for rat rods are there are no rules, make it the way you want out of whatever you want, it’s the American thing to do
TRIVIA: Who coined the phrase Rat Rod in the late 1980s/early 1990s ?
Eye Have a 67 Rat Rod..Iz That a Thing ? *
i really wish i could find one to build

Air polluting smoke bomb
This is all about to be replaced with boring electric cars.
WRONG, The reason the hotrod got its name. is you would heat up the fram rails... RODS.... to lower the car down.
Cool! So I just need to pass a crash test certification in Sweden in order to obtain the permit from the government to use my customized vehicle. But my only question is: Should I hit the wall with my forehead or with my but?
Rust Rods But fkn cool
i love it this cars, yeah! /../,
krass
I liked the video except for one thing, the history lesson . It's very unnecessary .
Mine is a daily driver,

Tons of useless information. Cool cars though.
Agreed !

9:14 even when you paint it you paint it a 'rust' color............WTF?

lot of nice videos but lame commentary
Lol, lame would be an improvement 😆
100,000 for a hot rot nah dude wtf buys a rat rod, you build the shit yourself, keeps cost low and self esteem high.
But other than that one comment, amazing video👍
Если заставить этих инженеров ездить пожизненно на хламе, который они слепили - количество припадков идиотии резко сократится.
Cant you rich Americans just be happy that your car looks cool without saying its for speed? Or performance? And who cares if its spins its back wheels, grow up.
Can you foreigners get over the bitter envy?
I can do without the dude talking .

I usually like rat rods. This guy is annoying and almost everything was terrible.
He sounds like I imagine Prius and Tesla drivers look like. 😆
Rat rods are not Hotrods
Absolutely same shit. Except painting
@@LOSTVeteR1 You must be a liberal Democrat ,can't accept facts.
waste of time
The narrator is insufferable.
