Right then guys time for a debate on this subject. I am fed up off hearing idiots going on at how their car is "ratted" when truth be told its a rotten corsa with paint flaking and so on.
In my eyes this is an insult to the original Rat rodders. Now a rat rod is a true legend in its own, hand built form parts and made to fit but still has the power and dare I say even the looks, they are amazing to look at and nose around and see how they have been built. So my question is what do you think on this I will add some pics below to validate my thoughts.

What I see from this is that they are utter crap that are just a joke, but it's cool by all accounts.
