Probably the longest build on this site. I started this build many years back. The build was commissioned, as a work on it as I had the time kind of build. And my time got super occupied. Since I started this build, I built the SEMA Jeep, TOXIC. I also built Sinister Sally for my Brother. I...

back from SEMA. A few for starters, already have a glitch in my phone.... working on it. stand by.

I have done a few more Steering wheels, and this one has two horns.

I am at it again.

Here is the you tube link to a steering wheel I built for my brother's T-bucket https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQqPDOMBkZE&feature=youtu.be&fbclid=IwAR2mf8kP1TQPrv01vMfxUfQerdJuEN-E9460r3yqOclQ29QuADTHK7hLBeg

So my brother retires this year. He lives in Florida, and I live in Colorado. We decided about 6 months ago that we should build him a hotrod. So for the past 6 months he has been buying parts and shipping them to me. He decided he wanted a T Bucket. I have always wanted to build one, so we...

I posted a picture already, but here is a quick video of the project. I used 16 gauge hot rolled, and a tree stump, a hammer, an English wheel, a planishing hammer, and a mig welder to make this Lion for the local Lions Club. I thought you guys might like to see how it went together. View...

Eric sent me a message this morning with the sad news that Willowbilly had passed away. One of the all time greats that made Rat Rods Rule what it is. Very knowledgeable, and helpful, with tons of information, and great input. His photos of area old tin....[dr He also amazed me with a...

My son just got back from the Baja 1000. The 50th year of Baja was a total of 1130 miles from one end to the other. They won their class and finished the race. Over half of the entries did not finish. My Son was co-driver for about 400 miles. There were 3 different drivers in the race, and...

Yes, I know, not really a rat rod, but I built in the spirit. I was working on the Jeep before SEMA, as a build for myself. Then a friend of mine called me and asked if I would like to take it to SEMA. It is the first vehicle I have had at the SEMA show, so it was quite an experience for me...

I am in the middle of a Jeep Build with around 20 days left to be done for SEMA. If you are out there look for me.

I picked up a few old rusty parts, but I am not sure what one of them is. Picture of Dash, and grill attached. http://ratrodsrule.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=135618&d=1503760553 http://ratrodsrule.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=135617&d=1503760553

You guys probably don't keep up with the race, but I have been following it off and on all day. It is like the Baja 1000 with rock crawling thrown in. The cars have to be able to maneuver 4 foot boulders, and run 120 mph on the flat. 500 to 1000 HP. The picture below is the winner crossing...

1966 Gladiator Jeep 3000 pickem up truck. 383, turbo 400 sleeper.

Okay, it is time for another build, don't you think? I actually have two builds lined up, and they may over lap a bit. But the first one is for a commissioned hot rod, and is based on a 50 Willys truck. The name is,"The Bogeyman", and it is going be creepy scary when it is done. We are in...

I hit on this idea quite a while back, but I finally made the time to put it together. For all you real guitar players, I apologize in advance. https://youtu.be/KPTdbKFBRUs

Sam called me and it didn't take me long to be all in on the photo contest. Sam helped cover the cost of a Bonehead shifter knob, out of his very own pocket. That is how much he cares about this site. Me too. It has historically been a great place for a lot of us to hang out. He had a grand...

I was searching something unrelated and found this copy of the article on my Rock Crawler, thought you guys might like to see it. http://www.omagdigital.com/publication/index.php?i=164161&m=&l=&p=32&pre=&ver=swf

Craigs list score today, met a new car guy, and got a look at his collection. Bought 3 cabs, even though one is pretty trashed. A stack of old wheels, some grills, and truck bed parts.
