Re: 60 to 66 chevy gmc rat rod pics?? Got any??
I think the term "Rat Rod" has been overly misused and has began to lose its true meaning. The earlier definition (Wikibowtia) is pretty much the way I see it.
As for Crash'd - your truck is nowhere near a ratrod. Your truck is darn near stock from the outside looks. It is very nice by the way. My buddy is building a '49 F*** and refers to it as a ratrod because the top is chopped and he has swapped in a newer subframe and updated powerplant. It really pisses me off sometimes, because he is seeking out those specific pieces that he knows (because it has been done a million times) will work. He has done little fab work himself and most of what he has done were bolt on parts. CL really gets my goat as someone will post a part to an old vehicle and tag it with "ratrod" and triple the price. Get a clue. I have almost come to hate the term altogether. Oh well. No need to get all worked up over it.

My truck has been refered to as a ratrod but I don't think it is. It has radrod touches like the mirrors and battery box but I wouldn't tell somebody it's a ratrod. I don't really Know what to call this class of truck.

Re: 60 to 66 chevy gmc rat rod pics?? Got any??
A rat rod is a car or truck put together with what you have to work with. Alot of bone yard parts from other vehicles and not a shiny plush interiour. If its a ford with a Chevy rear n studs baker engine so be it. But alot of them are safe and alot are not. Although now days alot of em are big bucks.
