you might be A rat rodder if:
your afraid to sell any of your parts because you might need them some day.
think nothin' of dropping two hundred bucks on a carb, but won't spend 50.00 for food.
laying the cold cement floor makes you're arthrits scream, and you still finsh rolling around on the ground to " get in that one last bolt" before you stop.
you start storing parts in the den because there is no more room in the garage.
you can't remember birthdays or anniversays but can rember every car you owned
on mothers day you buy tires for you're rat rod so it's safe for her to ride in.
takes ten minutes to explain how to start the car and put it in gear the right way. (my friend told me that's his car)
you have parts in and around the garage that you don't even own cars for.
your garage is clean and in order but your house hasn't been cleaned for months
you have 2 garages 3 sheds and you still need garage and storage space.
if you can't leave anything alone that has a motor on it, you want to hotrod lawn equipment, toys, motorhome, ect........
if you've ever "fixed" something with a part that wasn't made to do what you want it to do.
top of kid's swing set is bent and bowed because you hung a chain hoist on it to pull a engine and tranny.
When the guy at the auto parts store phones you to ask what will fit this....
you have more engines and trannys than cars.
you've rolled you're hair up in the creeper.
you keep your life events in chronological order by which car you where driving at the time. ( e mailed to me by some one else)
dosen't matter how many projects you have, your always looking for more.
You have at several old car /road signs and newer " found' street signs hanging in your garage.
you're afraid to sell any of your old parts to cars you don't own because a friend might need them for something day.
you're 15 minutes af fame are when the cop says "best smoke show l ever saw!, sign here, sir
you were mad at the end of " dirty larry and crazy mary" on how the charger got hit by a train.
you cry at old movies over all the good tin they destroy.
