> I can’t believe how many people sit around and jerk each other off over these half assed pieces of slag now. Its Fucking disgusting. Its like the entire idea has gone from if its broke fix it and have a perfect nice specimen of a car to if its broke duck it break it more make it shittier and then brain wash all the dumbassed lemmings making up our work to think your broke Shit is cool

- rep nailed it. Someone give me $3000 cash, I will build a “stance” nut swinger car in 3 weeks and be wiping the jiz off be back of the trunk lid from all the sheep in the car community after I drive by.

> Rat rods are nothing new you know…

His second reply is also correct. True rats are NOT built from imitation hardware. The same hate goes on in the true rat rod community. Just like we hate ricer hondas. Their are guys that have grown up and were around during the 50-60’s that dispise young chodes taking a flap disk to a car and letting it sit outside for a week, or rattle canning shit to look “Ratty”.

The authentic rat rods are constructed (wont even use the work built) true to era and they dig through swap meets, estate auctions, and barns/fields finding the hardware to make the vehicle. Anything else is a straight up fake.

> While im not a fan of the look of the car, I can admire the work that went into it. There isnt a ton of people out there in the car scene today that still fabricate and do really custom stuff to their car. Most simply buy parts and bolt them on.

I looked somewhat hard at the build pre fire nonsense… and fail to see any difficult fabrication at all on it. If he want to win over me, that car better be chopped channeled, fitment better be spot on, one off suspension parts, and a complete car, fully functional. Its just I guess I see things different because of what I do and how I roll. Biased sure, but I am one of the more open minded people around here. The one thing I cant fucking stand is sheep flocking to something they dont know shit about, just because the guy next to them are doing it. Blind sheep. 99% of the people who love this car/guy/theme/what ever never built anything like it themselves, never owned one, never knew they existed, dont know the culture behind it, the history behind it, the reasoning behind it… they just think it looks cool. No different than a 2 yearold watching Sponge Bob because it has bright moving colors! That infant doesnt have a fucking clue whats going on with it!!!
