That's what I love about rat rods, there is no end to the creativity.

This video is pure JOY & LOVE. 🤘😍😍😍

[@mplconsulting]

My favorite! Very good. I like it! Thx 🙏

[@EneOneOne]

The last one!!! Perfect!!!

[@georgec2126]

I love it! See what you've got lying around in the back of the barn, then build something radical out of it. I can't imagine this here in the UK. Or the expression on the face of any traffic officer who stopped you out on the road!💪😆

[@seributv]

Love the Ford Truck. Run smoothly, fluffy tires, and all moving parts at the back

[@garrywitcomb2334]

Some absolute genius Hotrod machines 😆😈👍 total respect to all the builders. Works of art

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I agree Garry!

[@robertmeyer8735]

Epic video from the Hog Pit and Shady Jack's, My band split our set to do the burnouts in the middle, then resumed the music, that was awesome!!!

[@steveperry1344]

beautiful buckets of rust, very cool. glad i got to see them, thnx.

[@adamweston4152]

The third rod was my favourite and the last one.. the nomad was really nice too.

[@gerhardthen8851]

The Nomad was nice...but think of what it was worth before it got chopped up.... they're rare beasts.

[@russellmooneyham3334]

It's NOT a nomad.

If the world keeps falling apart at it's current rate these will be considered average everyday motors in 3 years.

[@StlNovas]

Loved seeing them and the locations on your video's (Shapiro Steel/Steelfest, Shady Jack's Downtown Saint Louis, possibly the Grafton River Road ). Thanks for sharing.

[@UrbanHillbillyVideos]

the grafton river road cruise was really cool.

[@Praise___YaH]

Guys, HERE is The TRUE Savior YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins, NOT jesus, and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic Scroll: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"

That Chevy at the end, is the ultimate ghost busting rig.

It is so Petersen's "Hot Rod Cartoons" George Trosley , Krass and Bernie .

[@birdsfan3705]

Some of these could be in the next Mad Max movie with very little changes needed. Great machines!

[@jonnybeck6723]

These "Ride along side" vids are the best ...and that five-seven wagon at the end is truly the "Belle of the Ball" (IMHO) 2nd watch and I'll prolly watch it again (It's perfect to woodshed w/ my guitar)

[@REMBRANTTUBE]

ALL OF THEM WERE AWESOME!!

[@Chillin4030]

6:33 this car is awsome. It genuinely looks scary. I love it.

I wouldn't go over any speed bumps in those - but I love them.

[@ericbitzer5247]

I really liked the old Ford cabover and the second to last one just before the Wagon. The wagon is cool too they all are. Diesels for me!

[@haroldstrickland8416]

Very creative rides.

[@ProBloggerWorld]

This is so cool and makes me want to binge-watch Mad Max. 😍

[@NLBassist]

The Nomad and that Ford truck are my faves

[@FGX318]

Splendide !!

[@skyedog24]

In my town back in the '70s there was a guy that had taken a four-door 57 and he chopped and channeled it and he made the most mini 57 Chevy that you could image.

[@JonMB357]

That old Hemi powered Terraplane rat was my favorite.

[@Spacejunk57]

That Ford cab over is cool!

[@bobmurray3229]

Really cool !

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

What awesome looking vehicles ! 👍

[@Kay-rt8rz]

That second one looks so dope

[@MadMaxCars]

Saw that Nomad Wagon that is in the Thumbnail and at the end of the video at the grand opening of the "Decade of Wheels" Museum in Baxter Springs KS! Have some good footage of it in our video of the event. Keep up the good work! Love your vids!

[@russellmooneyham3334]

@@MadMaxCars I appreciate your position. Please understand that I am from that era. Have owned two nomads, a 56, and a 55. It's just a "purist" attitude. Lol. No harm or insults intended.

These things put me in mind of the pile that grows outside the shop back door when we clean out all the useless trash and junk so we have room to work for another year!!

[@laurentianvmx1692]

The big dually diesel 'Creepin' near the end was sweet

[@gerhardthen8851]

Look at the torque twisting the Rat Rod before the Nomad....the backdrop of what I guess is Detroit suits perfectly....post apocalyptic....salvaging the detritus of Detroit... very cool.

[@stlpinstriping7772]

It was in St Louis. That's Jim Davis' car "Handfull". I did all the artwork and lettering on it.

[@skyedog24]

We used to have a lot of different contraptions running the streets any where from 66 mustang 2+2 oo a early bronco frame sitting on huge tall swampers ,,all the way to a wild wheel standing 57 Chevy 4 Dr wagon that was chopped & channeled down to a mini 57 two Dr. These were daily drivers . Some of us had tail light cut out switch's & much more??

[@alfonsosalgado6352]

that was coolest rusty ass vid ive seen.

[@williamowings6857]

Not sure why but I like cab forward vehicals. They take a bit to get used to steering but I like weird stuff. Right hand drive and standard transmission is fun too. My wife's car is a 6 speed manual Ford Focus. Last year it was available off the showroom floor. She loves it and happy I could afford to get her a new one that's fun and practical.

Sick minded people putting good money into junk just to ride around in..... that's what makes you Hotrod heroes, champions of backyard engineering,the sultans of parts swap and some of my best friends I haven't met yet. Every one of these rides just have character no average vehicle can muster. Inspiration for all home builders is what's needed and you guys produced in spades. Y'all are... Just Badass...

[@user-sf9pq5ox7w]

Nice, but all too low off the ground. The point of melting your tires? Don't get it.

Funny, Road Warrior was what came to mind when I was looking at some of these.

[@peterbarlow8912]

Only thing I saw with a legal plate was the ‘57. How are they rat rods with a crate Hemis loaded with anodized aluminum? If you can’t see over the intake risers and it won’t stop or turn what’s the point Smokey burnouts?

In my eyes any type of Rat Rod is the best doesnt matter the looks but it needs that type of rusty old style back in the good ol day's just make sure its all lowered and all in ground ;)

The availability or time required to configure a suitable door-latch appears to elude the fabricator behind #8.

I think it looses something when they have all but unlimited funds to build it. Originally, that wasn't the case. People were building what they could with what they had. Now, some see it as another exercise of throwing money around.

It ’s a really cool car.
