Building a curved bumper with frenched tail lights - 1939 Hudson Rat truck Part 30

[@mikemitchell7575]

The rear end of that truck has curvs like a musical instrument...looks great....

[@ciferific]

Google translate says that your sign reads "No entry unauthorized" You're quite the artist. I love the look of the truck so far.

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thanks for taking the trouble to look it up. No I know too🙂

[@jimcarlisle2309]

Outstanding Achievement, Really Cool!

[@WILDDRAGON1942]

SWEET ... LOOK KILLER

[@davidweidner1675]

Thanks for the education and entertainment Div Lekka

[@dennisschmitt8621]

VERYYYY SWEEET DESIGN!!!!!!! You are very talented for sure!!!! Thanks for the great videos and teaching!!!

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thank you very much!👍

[@alexfrow195]

The hive mind says it's Zulu for "no unauthorized entry". Nice sign for the workshop.

[@d.p.9005]

Good job my friend it’s looking good , I like your Project I learn something to day which is good. God bless you Sir and have a blessed day , Aman.

[@maryfaw5655]

Love your work.usa

[@TheCrackerBox]

As always Thanks for another , Brother !!

[@jerrydodd6113]

You always put out a GREAT Video, Diff! I enjoy designing and building more than driving them. Anyone can order parts from a catalog, but I would rather build every part if at all possible. I'm 75 now and have been building hot rods since I was 14, I love the process!

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thanks Jerry. That's me too, once they built I lose interest...😅

[@DaSoulmann]

@@ratrodsafrica Spoken like a true artist... it is the creating that feeds the monster, not the completion.

[@ratrodsafrica]

@@DaSoulmann that is exactly my problem!😅And once the build is done I lose interest & have to move on to the next project! I'm addicted to the creating...

[@DaSoulmann]

@@ratrodsafrica Like I tell my friends "the urge to create terrorizes, so I gotta feed the Monster" ☯

[@tonyengland1974]

Always enjoy watching

[@robertstevison1448]

She's Bodacious!!

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

Thanks brother! That's a cool looking bumper.

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thanks Bob. Glad you like it!

[@nboldrini]

Div! When your video started and I saw the curved bumper I thought "Nah, No. Don't do it!". When I finally saw the completed job I thought. Wow! What a cool idea!

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thanks!

[@dougcroissant6360]

Well done Brother!!!!!😊

[@franktaylor7617]

😎👍🇺🇲 Cheers brother from the PNW Seattle WA area USA. Keep inspiring us to get off our asses and get in the garage. 🤘

[@ratrodsafrica]

[@SchysCraftCo.]

It's looking pretty good Div. Can't wait to see more updates an projects and many more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.

[@chuckdivel3600]

She is turning out so pretty. I’m jealous I think lol. Your doing an awesome job.

[@sharpbysandberg42]

Nice work. The knife is from Mora in Sweden, the name of the company is Frost. In Sweden it's called Mora kniv. Everyone in Sweden have at least one.

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thanks, now I know 🙂

[@jamesbarisitz4794]

Genius circle aid. Your eyes and hands work well to satisfy your imagination. Incorporating style to a frame is brilliant .

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thank you!

[@gr6696]

Incredible what one man can do time knowledge equipment

[@916rxyrox]

Sunday morning with Diff! Life is good. Excellent work! Waiting for Rat Rods of Africa shirts and swag!

[@brentmclovin9332]

You’re an artist!

[@lestergarcia4827]

I really enjoyed all the fabrication some really cool stuff. 😮

[@ratrodsafrica]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Kenny_Ded]

I totally agree that curves makes a car beautiful, which is why I like the look of my 1st gen Audi TT so much. Excellent job on designing and fabricating the bumper, it compliments the rest of the build really well.

[@deniseprettner2020]

You out did yourself once again. Looks great 👍

[@Hellsatanx]

That's a Frost's Mora knife, best knives there are. in business since the 1800's and still to this day makes the best knives

[@December314]

Your craftsmanship is unquestionable, but I cannot help noticing how well your videos are produced. Good lighting, good sound, well balanced content. You explain the idea and concept behind the design and then show the key parts of the fabrication with some tricks of the trade and without any boring, unnecessary details. It's a real pleasure watching your channel.

[@ratrodsafrica]

Thank you very much!

[@stevemiller7654]

Agreed, from Knoxville, Tennessee, USA......

[@garysistrunk1700]

New to the channel, you do amazing work,.

With the amount of work and design put into all of the details you can’t call it a rat truck because it truly is a full blown kustom. Great fabrication, I love it. Cheers!!
