Taking that Bud light sign off the wall is priceless !! Great ladder bars Bob !😅

[@MrSafetybug]

I busted a gut laughing.

[@MachineDr.]

Lol. I gave up Hershey candy for the same reason.

[@RaysLaughsAndLyrics]

Guess Elvira is next to do an exit.

[@davidhogan5133]

Warm n' Fuzzie.👍✌

[@alanhicks3361]

What's the joke with the bud sign I didn't get that one

[@jasonseal2692]

First, thanks for sharing this killer build. Second, hats off for mentioning Brent’s situation. Third, thanks for ditching the sign.

[@rlhuber76]

I appreciate you mentioning half ass customs. Sucks going through a fire. I had my house burn down in 2006 so I know what it's like. Thank you

[@JoeBManco]

The ladder bars should do the job. This is going to be a fantastic build.

[@kevinhumphrey932]

I'd like to thank you for the shout out halfass kustoms you and Brent are very intelligent guys when it comes to building rat rods and or hot rods

[@stomper2582]

Highly professional workmanship, Bob. Got good help too. Hope Don didn’t have to pay too much tuition to get to work with the Dean of the School of Ratrodology. Thanks for sharing, Bob.

[@kevinl.2291]

They look nice Bob. This build is awesome. You done great. Bud Light sign is gone 🤣🤣🤣that’s great. See you on the next. 👍😎✌️

[@mayor_azusastreetriders3790]

Gonna be a great rat rod, and knocking down the bud light sign was the icing on the cake. Also love Brent @halfasskustoms thanks for plugging him. It is heart breaking what happened to his shop. Your still my 4 year old's favorite KZbin channel that I watch, may have something to do with Red. ❤

[@larrysorenson4789]

Starting on my rocker panel replacements. All inspired after watching you, Bob. Next job: body welding: removing spot welded seams and welding them over. 🤞 pray for me.

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

Sometimes I think about too much instead of just doing it! Sometimes when I get done and look at it I say I should've thought about that a little more first. But in the end ... it's all good!

[@larrysorenson4789]

@@RatRodBobBuilds thanks for the encouragement. Your replies are greatly appreciated. Larry, builder of the Clipper “B”. (An MGB turned into a Packard Clipper Speedster.)

[@jamiemarcum8743]

[@silktat2803]

Hey Bawb, Looks like your school is getting pretty popular, subscriptions are climbing steady again!!!! Great Job!!!

[@blane-cox]

Thank you for allowing us to look over your shoulder as you apply your skills and creativity to making a rat rod. I'm sure the cameras, explanations, and video editing more than double the time it takes to complete a project like this. So thank you also for your generosity in opening the School of Ratrodology.

[@kennyfofo]

Your ladder bars are just what your Rat Rod needed and they LOOK GOOD!!

[@unclelarryboy1608]

Yep, that Model A gives me the warm fuzzies, for shore. Way cool ladder bars. Taking down the Bud Light sign deserves a big thumbs up.

[@Elizabethkarsky648]

[@davidwaskiewicz3289]

Looks good Bob, it’s gonna work good and go straight 👍

[@dirk4926]

Big thumbs up for knocking down the Bud Light sign

[@justinpederson7620]

best part watching you nock that crappy sign down, awesome build!

[@carterleggett2478]

That was worth every minute of watching you build the ladder bars, but the icing on the cake was the bud light sign hitting the floor 🤣🤣🤣 love it

[@xKmotx]

Yup. I remember when I was younger that drillin' holes was a whole lotta fun. 😎 The ladder bars look bitchin' and as always you knocked it outta the park!

[@garyhughes9199]

Like this build a bunch. Way to give a shout out to Brent. Your a good man BOB. ( Red too )

[@hooligan_56labelle22]

[@garystrozyk6960]

Tons of respect to you !!!!!!!!!!

[@guydemers7607]

Great work Bob, I like how you show the progress you made at the beginning of the your videos and proceed to show how you did it. great editing.

[@KSIXRIDER]

Nice use of old grinding wheel as a guide for the plasma

[@ratrod6161]

Awsome Bob great job on bars

[@dougstaner1220]

Mr. Bob, The build looks just fine to me. You have a good grip on things. Thanks for the show.

[@dougwebb6193]

It shows that you have done your research I had no idea that those bars had a specific location to do the best job in regards to traction I am reassembling a 60's Rod that I found and bought and I will be double-checking a lot from what I've learned from you on this one video I also like the idea of the shims!

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

If you're not building a performance ride some of it don't really matter. Folks will argue with you all day about how to set things up. Back in the day ... I would jack up the back of my car because everyone else was doing it ... not knowing it was screwing with the traction. Well, didn't have a lot of HP anyways so it was all good. LOL

[@albertdehn8381]

Thanks for the time 👍😀

[@crbrepairmotorcycles6608]

Looking like a pretty AWESOME Rat Rod 👍

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Awesome work Bob and Don 🔧🔩 Glad to see you making progress

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

Yea I loved that little truck .. he builds some cool rides. I'm sure he hadn't lost the will to build cool stuff so he'll be OK.
