Rat Rod Europe

Second are what I personally call Rat Rods, as a positive term … They’re artistic, fun, and sensational reinterpretations of late-’40s/early-’50s hot rodding as a culture that includes music, clothing, hairstyles, and tattoos. The cars are low, loud, chopped … with giant rear tires, lots of carburetors, open pipes, and tall gearshifts. The customs can have slit windows and scrape the ground. Few cars in the ’50s looked like this, but today they can, in countless creative and fun ways.

Though a variety of engines may be used, the most common engine type that is used in rat rods are: Flathead V8 engines, early Chrysler Hemi engines, or more modern small block V8 engines from any manufacturer (Chevrolet is a common choice of small block engine). Straight-8s straight-6s, straight-4, and V6s are also fairly commonly used in the construction of rat rods—these engines may exhibit varying displacements and modifications. While diesel engines are occasionally used, these engines are rarely fitted with emission controls, as such a feature was not part of the original construction, or the feature was not required under special license.There’s a huge difference between rat rod and beater. A beater has potential. A rat rod is something someone threw together to make a statement, and usually that statement is, ’I don’t know how to weld. I had a bunch of crap lying around and realized there was enough to put together a car but didn’t want to put any effort into it.’

In many cases, the front suspension is mounted a considerable distance forward of the radiator, a practice that may be derived from the construction of early drag racing cars.

I see what are referred to as Rat Rods today comprising three elements: First are the traditional rods and customs. Those are cars built the way rods were built in the ’30s, ’40s, and early ’50s, with a primary emphasis on low-buck and home-built, using period-correct components ranging from flathead to nailhead engines, wide whitewall tires to skinny blackwall bias-plies, and black primer to hand-rubbed paint.The rat rod style of automobile customization enjoyed a resurgence in popularity beginning the in the 1990s, initially as a sub-genre of the Drifting community. Since the early 2000s, a growing number of automotive enthusiasts not directly associated with any form of organized motorsport have combined the functional principles of rat rod architecture with certain aesthetic factors commonly seen in amateur motorsport such as missing or severely damaged body panels, the use of improvised materials to temporarily repair body damage incurred during a racing or drifting event, and mismatched body and mechanical components typical of hobbyist repair of racing cars in which functionality, rather than aesthetics, are of primary concern.

Early low-budget hot rods were often long term ”works in progress” and as such final finishing treatments (such as metal prep, paint, and trim) remained in the future, and the Rat Rod imitates this aesthetic.Frames from older cars or light trucks are sometimes preferred for rat rod conversions due to the chassis that is used for these types of vehicles—the chassis type provides a sturdy base for subsequent alterations. Older cars in poor condition are often advertised as candidates for rat rod conversions and, in some cases, the owner will purchase a custom frame, or design and build it himself/herself. In other cases, a rat rodder may use a small pick-up chassis, such as a Chevy S-10 or Dodge Dakota, to insert into an older car body, in order to create a vehicle that features the look of a classic rat rod, while also maintaining the reliability of a modern vehicle.

The December 1972 issue of Rod & Custom Magazine was dedicated to the ”beater”, a low-budget alternative to the early car models that were slick and customized. Due to the beater’s cheap upholstery, primer covering (instead of paint), and lack of chrome or polished metals, it has been considered a progenitor of the rat rod.Traditional hot rodders and restorers often regard the rat rod trend movement as ”cheap” and ”talentless”. Sentiment among ”critics” tends to be dismissive and sometimes overtly negative.

Interiors of rat rods can range from spartan to fully finished, though this is typically the final phase of construction. Mexican blankets and bomber seats form the basis of many rat rod interiors, and most are designed to be functional without many comforts; although, this will vary in accordance with the owner’s taste.Reflecting the ownership-demographics of the mostly younger enthusiasts participating in this styling trend in the 21st century, unibody vehicles of predominantly Asian and European manufacture are now commonly seen emulating the styling cues which are emblematic of the traditional rat rod.Spring types in the front and rear can be transverse, parallel or coil setups—parallel is not used as frequently as the more common single-spring transverse setup and coil springs are still occasionally seen even though this spring type is less popular for aesthetic reasons. Rat rods will often be built with airbag suspension, thereby allowing the driver to raise and lower the car; this can be a useful feature due to the extremely low ground clearance of many rat rods.

These DIY-builds, known as rat rods, are an excellent example of the versatility in this industry and a great starting project for newcomers. Of course, some die-hard hot rod enthusiasts take offense at these almost Frankenstein-ed builds being at same auto events as more traditionally rebuilt hot rods and carefully restored muscle cars, but there is a beauty here.

I put the majority of it into two categories—”Young Guy Bad Style” and ”Old Guy Bad Style”. The two different camps are separated by those that do not know better and those that should- yet both produce a high volume of style violations. The young guys that generally do not know any better commit their sins in the name of ”Why not, it gets a ton of attention at the cars shows”. The problem is a clown on fire gets a lot of attention too, doesn’t make it a good thing either especially if you are the clown. The young violators like to not only produce a car that in its raw form has no flow or style, but on top of that they ”decorate” them with such unnecessary items as spikes, bullets, grenades, plastic rats, garden tools, barbed wire, skulls and oversized tools. The young guys into this style are nearly 100-percent new comers that have no knowledge of hot rod and custom car history and generally do not care. Good news many of them discover the history and quickly out grow the offensive style and leave it behind as they build new vehicles with an eye on style rather than creating unappreciated attention.The typical rat rod is a late-1920s through to late-1950s coupe or roadster, but sometimes a truck or sedan. Many early (pre-World War II) vehicles were not built with fenders, hoods, running boards, and bumpers. The bodies are frequently channeled over the frame and sectioned, or the roofs are chopped, for a lower profile. Later-era post-war vehicles were rarely constructed without fenders and were often customized in the fashion of kustoms, leadsleds, and lowriders; Maltese crosses, skulls, and other accessories were often added. The owner of the vehicle was typically responsible for most, or all, of the work present in the vehicle.

A beam axle is the most commonly used type of front suspension, due to its appearance when exposed without fenders on a vehicle with open front suspension. Independent front suspension is rarely used and most rat rods use a 1928-1948 Ford I-beam axle, with a transverse leaf spring. Although any rear axle can be used in a rat rod, the Ford rear end has been preferred for years due to the availability of spare parts. ”…Ford 9-inchers are the most used rear ends in nearly every form of racing and most high-performance street vehicles …”

The origin of the term ”rat rod” is the subject of dispute, but was definitely coined by one specific person in the Shifters So. Cal. car club. In the early 1990s, Anthony Casteneda thought of the word when they were interviewed in a Rod & Custom magazine article. Anthony stated that to him and his car club, their traditional hot rods were lacking certain elements like paint and/or upholstery, and were similar to rat bikes of their time period, thus the name Rat Rods. The Shifters So.Cal. started a trend of younger guys that were in to Rockabilly music, dressed in a 1950s Greaser style, and built period correct pre war hot rods, reminiscent of the 1940s, 50’s, and early 60s. This trend started in southern California by Anthony Casteneda, Kevan Sledge, Alex ”Axle” Idzardi, Mark ”Marky” Idzardi, Jeff Vodden, Victor Jimenez, Jeff ”Skinny” Coleman, Jimmy White, and Rob Neilson. Soon after the Rod & Custom Magazine article featured the Shifters, magazines such as Burn Out, Continental Restyling, Hot Rod, Cal, and Hop Up featured the club, and this new phenomenon hit not only southern California, but cities all over the nation. Opinions regarding the term’s origins were based in one of the following perspectives: Years later, in 1998, one of many articles was written in Hot Rod Magazine, this was done by automotive journalist Gray Baskerville, about cars that, at that time, continued to be covered by primer; or, the first rat rod was owned by artist, Robert Williams, who had a ’32 Ford Roadster that was painted in primer. However, Hot Rod magazine has verified the latter view. Gray’s use of the term was in relation to ”Rat Bikes,” motorcycles that were assembled from spare parts, to be enjoyed and ridden, and not necessarily for the display of the builder’s skills. It is believed that the term is likely to have originally been used in a derogatory or pejorative sense, as this remains the case among sections of the hot rod community; however, the term has also been adopted in a positive light by other parts of the sub-culture.

That Deuce Coupe in the movie had a ’66 Chevy 327-cu.-in. engine, but we can’t say it was “under the hood” because…no hood, of course. Reportedly, it featured Rochester 2GC 2-barrel carburetors and a Super T-10 automatic transmission.

Ford sold close to 300,000 ’32 Model 18s (V8s) but just 133,000 4-cylinder versions. Keep in mind, the models were identical except for the engine. The hot-rod culture in the 1950s grew, helped by the National Hot Rod Association, which started in 1951. During this time, custom cars and street rods also became very popular, as young men with spare money and knowledge of mechanics turned cars into racing machines and stylish rides.In addition to affordability and good looks, the Deuce had the brand-new Ford V8 engine playing a big role in the initial and ongoing success of the vehicle. Prior to that engine’s introduction, V8 engines were the powerplants of big luxury cars. It took the production of the Flathead to get a V8 into a light, affordable vehicle. The response from the public was overwhelming.

The 1932 Ford replaced the Model A and came in a variety of models and versions (more than 14). The look itself is so iconic, especially for the roadster and coupe, that if you can’t get your hands on a genuine ’32 body, you can find a replica that will do you well.

It also had a twin in the 1932 Ford Model 18, which had a V8 engine called the “flathead.” It was known in the industry (and still known today) as the Ford V8. When car people refer to the Deuce, they are mostly referring more specifically to the flathead V8 Model 18. (Evidently, “1” referred to the first, and “8” to V8.)One of the most memorable movie cars of all time was the yellow, five-window 1932 Ford Deuce Coupe driven by the character John Milner (played by actor Paul Le Mat) in the 1973 movie classic American Graffiti (directed by George Lucas, who went on to create and direct Star Wars a few years later. Interestingly, Harrison Ford has a minor role in the movie as a rival hot rodder. It must’ve been training for his space hot rod, the Millennium Falcon.) One of the most popular models Ford rolled out in 1932—that became a hit with hot rodders—was the three-window or five-window version Standard Coupe. (If you count four windows or six windows on the cars, you’re not going nuts: They don’t include the windshield in the three- and five-window count.) Henry Ford was driven to have his engineers come up with a V8 engine and fend off his American competitors. It wasn’t without a lot of problems, but he did it. Bragging issues aside, what he accomplished was to give the average car buyer an opportunity to get a powerful lower-cost engine in a mass-produced car. Up until then, V8s were found only in luxury models.From the time the 1932 Ford was introduced nearly a century ago, both enthusiasts and engineers admired it. The “Deuce” was the world’s first popularly priced car to come with a V8 engine and got its nickname from the second digit in the model year—1932.

It’s equipped with a 351 Cleveland along with a 671 Blower. Mustang II front suspension up front with a 4-link rear suspension in the rear running Aldan Phantom Series coilovers with Aldan coil-springs.

It rolled out to amazing fanfare 90 years ago, and today the 1932 Ford is still popular with hot-rod/street-rod enthusiasts, historians and collectors. More than that, the ’32 Fords stayed (and stay) in our consciousness and the limelight. The ’32 turned out to be the ultimate platform for some iconic cars.You could have gotten a 1932 Ford, in the style you wanted, with either a 4-cylinder engine or an 8-cylinder. The ’32 Model B was a 4-cylinder, an improved version of the Model A V8, in whatever style it came in.Even the United States Post Office gave the 1932 Ford Roadster some love. In 2014, the U.S Postal Service honored the iconic ’32 Ford and the hot-rod culture by issuing a limited-edition Hot Rod stamp. Two Deuce roadsters were selected and beautifully illustrated for two individual stamps. One was a black ’32 Ford with orange flames; the other, a classic red 1932 Highboy Roadster.That red ’32 Highboy Roadster is perhaps the most iconic hot rod of all time. The exact car that was the model for the U.S. postage stamp was illustrated by artist John Mattos, who has appeared on Jay Leno’s Garage. This is the car that is the model icon of hot rods. It was also the very first hot rod to appear on the cover of Hot Rod magazine in 1948.

While other early examples were based on 1940s hot rods, many rat rods have since been built in imitation of the hot rods of the 1950s–60s. Some have even taken to calling hot rods in progress or running cars with ratty exteriors from much later eras rat rods, sometimes to the chagrin of their owners or to rat rod enthusiasts.Williams’s car established a trend of rebuking mainstream hot-rodding culture, which emphasized clean, chrome exteriors and sometimes left hot-rodders unwilling to drive their expensive cars.

Ratty, on the other hand, has been used to mean “shabby” since the 1860s. In motoring culture, rat rods were preceded by rat bikes. Rat bikes are haphazardly customized and repaired motorcycles often, but not always, painted matte black. Motorcycles in generally poor condition were being called rat bikes in enthusiast magazines in the 1970s, and the rat bike as a conscious style was in place by the mid-1980s. A 1986 book called the rat bike “a serious art form” that “demands attention.”Rat rod is a variant of hot rod, a term for a custom car, usually modified from a classic car for greater speed, that has been in use since at least the 1940s. Automotive historians are uncertain of the origin of hot rod. Some claim it’s a shortening of hot roadster. Others say rod referred to the engine’s camshaft and a hot rod referred initially to a performance camshaft, or, by extension, a performance engine. In the 1930s, hot rod was also slang for an “armed criminal” or “unruly young man,” suggesting a possible connection between a fast, flashy cars and hooliganism.

A rat rod is a custom car with a deliberately worn-down, unfinished appearance, typically lacking paint, showing rust, and made from cheap or cast-off parts.

This is not meant to be a formal definition of rat rod like most terms we define on Dictionary.com, but is rather an informal word summary that hopefully touches upon the key aspects of the meaning and usage of rat rod that will help our users expand their word mastery. Vi har en av sveriges mest välutrustade verkstäder och jobbar mycket med motorrenovering, trimning, tuning i bromsbänk, stötdämpare, ombyggnad och customizering.

Inte bara för att bevisa för alla att han är en duktig stuntman utan också för att vinna sin styvfars respekt, bestämmer sig Rod för att göra det ingen någonsin gjort förut. Med sin moped ska han hoppa över femton skolbussar. Något lika djärvt som dumdristigt.

Till toner av Europe och synthar bjuder ”Hot Rod” på de klart coolaste och psykiskt mest smärtsamma stuntsen jag hittills sett på bioduk. Det här får mig att åter älska åttiotalet och också att skratta mig tårögd. Helt klart överraskande brakar den här filmen in på svenska biografer om än inte in på topplistan, till mitt förtret.

I en liten sommarhet amerikansk småstad lever Rod Kimble obekymrat det slackerliv som många önskar sig. Tillsammans med sina två vänner, sin halvbror Kevin och den snygga Denise hängs det vid den lokala grillen, experimenteras med jelly beans och så stuntsen såklart. Rod är stuntman eller det är i alla fall vad han kallar sig, resten av kvarteret får se honom i galenskap efter galenskap slå sig halvt fördärvad.”Hot Rod” är det klart sjukaste, roligaste och mest säregna inom humorgenren på länge som du kommer att se på bio inom den närmsta tiden. Likheterna går från den enklaste av kiss-och-bajs-filmerna till de mer unika komedifilmerna. I samma stuk som exempelvis ”Napoleon Dynamite” fast med en mycket råare humor kommer ”Hot Rod” helt klart hamna bland kultisarna. Inte minst för sitt snygga format à la 80-tal men också för sin humoristiska träffsäkerhet även om det är så amatörigt att man storknar. Men som Hot Rod hade sagt ”Cool Beans”.

Many people keep rats as pets, and scientists often study rats because their psychological behavior is actually very similar to that of humans. Rats are intelligent and adaptable, but wild rats also carry disease and sometimes bite humans. These negative traits have led to the informal meaning of rat, ”hateful person,” ”liar,” or ”double-crosser.” You can also use rat as a verb to mean ”betray or snitch on.”Rats are mouse-like rodents with long tails, pointed noses, and whiskers. Rats are often associated with filth and disease. So, if someone calls you a rat, it’s not like being called a fox. It’s an insult.

The only rule for the rat rod is that there is no rule to conjuring up your design for it.

The rat rod is a hot rod with an unfinished look. It looks like the car was assembled at a junkyard. When making a rat rod, you find a dysfunctional part and simply jack up your other vehicle off that part and add it to your rat rod.

The hot rod is a vehicle from 1948 that has been upgraded for racing purposes. It’s just like a street rod except for the engine and the purpose of the build. Hot rods are repurposed with more efficient engines because they are designed for racing and are exposed to let the heat out.A rat rod is a subclass of the hot rod. The term rat rod came to be used for cars when the editor of Hot Rod magazine looked at a specific hot rod model, which reminded him of rat bikes. The rat rods are a more rugged version of the hot rods, and hot rods are a more robust version of a street rod. Rat Rods allow room for creativity, and if you don’t care much about shiny cars and are into rallies and racing, getting one might be a solid, adventurous option. The street rod is an automobile from 1948 or earlier with an upgrade on its engine, transmission, interior, or paint job. The street rod is a non-racing vehicle used for enjoyment and is a more family-friendly version of the infamous hot rod! There is a street rod, a rat rod, and a hot rod, and each one has a different style and origin, and there are clubs and associations that celebrate these custom cars. Remember hot rods from the good old days? Now meet hot rod 2.0, called the rat rod. A rat rod, as usually known today, is a custom car with a deliberately worn-down, unfinished appearance, typically lacking paint, showing rust, and made from cheap or cast-off parts. These parts can include repurposed non-automotive items, such as a rifle used as a gear shifter, wrenches as door handles, or hand saws as sun visors. Whether or not so appointed, the rat rod uniquely conveys its builder’s imagination.

Rat rod describes a style of hot rod or custom car that broadly imitates or exaggerates the early hot rods of the mid-twentieth century, unlike the ”traditional” hot rod built at that time or a close re-creation of one of such.

The editor, Gary Baskerville of the magazine Hot Rod, is credited with coining the term rat rod when he described a hot rod built by the artist Robert Williams in the early 90s. William had made the car look like a heap, with its rusty shell and the bare build quality. The car reminded Baskerville of the rat bikes famous during the time.

The word ratty has meant shabby since the 1860s. The rat bikes preceded the rat rods in the motoring culture. Rat bikes are often repaired and refurbished motorcycles that have been customized haphazardly. Motorbikes in poor condition were called rat bikes in the 1970s and came into conscious style by the 1980s. Rat bikes were a severe art form that demanded attention, paving the way for rat rods.Let’s start with what a hot rod is before getting to rat rods. A hot rod is a term used to describe custom cars, generally modified from a classic car with a higher BHP, that has been in use since the 1940s. The rat rod is a variant of the good old hot rod. Automotive historians are divided on the origin of the hot rod. Some believe it was a short form for a hot roadster, while others believe that the term rod referred to the engine’s camshaft. During the 1930s, the slang hot rod referred to armed criminals or unruly young men. Therefore, some historians romanticize the possible connection between fast, flashy cars and hooliganism.

Rat rod culture includes rock’n’roll, distinctive clothing, 1950s hairstyles and tattoos. There is also a growing number of people who don’t necessarily fit the “scene” or dress the part, but simply enjoy the cars for what they are — anti-trailer queens. Rat rods aren’t limited to any particular region, and new events are springing up in support of the cars and the culture. Clubs such as Rat City Rodz in Everett, Washington, hold annual shows. The Rat Rod Rumble at the Knoxville Dragstrip in Tennessee takes place each spring. In 2013, Division Tattoos of Hazel Park, Michigan, arranged the first annual “In Rust We Trust” anti-dream cruise during the well-known Woodward Dream Cruise. And increasingly, rats have begun showing up at more traditional shows like Back to the ’50s in St. Paul, Minnesota. If you hit a show, check out the engineering of these cars and the use of random nuts and bolts, repurposed parts, and old tools fabricated into items such as brackets, suspension pieces and steering components. Personal quirks can be discovered in every corner, and humor is everywhere: rubber rats holding umbrellas, zombie hula girls, and sayings such as “Rust is a color” or “It’s done when it runs.” Cartoon characters produced by the late Ed “Big Daddy” Roth — like the hot rod culture’s unofficial mascot, Rat Fink (aka the anti-Mickey Mouse) — are ubiquitous.

There is a fine but distinct line between rat rods and hot rods. Josh Joyce from Village Customs explains, “Rat rodding isn’t defined by the rust or lack of parts. Rat rods are built from the leftover parts of other projects, pieces of metal that are taken from other common things, and in general they are made from what the builder has access to. If I can go to the scrap yard and find a ton of cheap tractor parts, my rat rod is going to be built of tractor parts.” But just because it’s in primer doesn’t mean it’s a rat. Be careful calling someone’s unfinished hot rod a rat rod — you could get an earful.

Frames can be built from the carcasses of cars and trucks, from the 1920s all the way through today’s modern production chassis. Chevrolet S-10 pickup frames are not uncommon, for example. If you are unable to find a car deemed rotted enough to sacrifice its chassis, there are other options: Build it from scratch out of 2×4 square stock steel, or purchase a chassis kit. Many rat rodders use truck cabs for their builds; they are easy to work with and involve less fabrication. Above all, rat rods are built to be enjoyed and driven. They are a mechanic’s art form that allow each builder to think outside the box. Ben Klienfelter, who built a rat rod from a ’90s Chevrolet S-10, favors his rat rod over his restored muscle car. Parts-finding is a snap, but more importantly, he can enjoy it and be carefree. “It’s nice to be able to drive it and not worry about the mileage or expensive repairs,” he says. “I can park it without worrying about crazy drivers or shopping carts.” The cars are low, loud, chopped, unpainted and rusty. They sport giant rear tires, lots of carburetors and tall shifters with knobs ranging from keg levers to hand grenades. For better or for worse, they are works of scrap art on wheels, with much time invested and very little money involved. And what they lack in performance, frills and creature comforts, they make up for in personality, originality and spirit. Rat Rod magazine contributor “Porkstick” likes rats because, as he puts it, “I love paint. Great paint is expensive and is ruined every time by a door ding or some jerk who runs a stoplight to wreck it all. I like rats because one doesn’t need to worry about paint being ruined or chipped. Most people clear a path.”

Rat rods are a great way to let loose and have fun. Many folks proclaim them a unique art form — call it drivable sculpture — while others thumb their noses. But they wouldn’t be rebel rods if everyone loved them. And this is one rebellion that isn’t going to end anytime soon.Engines, however, are the gem in a rat rod. They can be anything — again, whatever is cheap and easily accessible. Big-block Chevys, Hemis and Buick nail-heads are common. Many are finished off with a fabricated exhaust, massive intake or perhaps a monstrous blower.

If you don’t like to get your hands dirty, then rat rods probably aren’t for you, because these cars are built, not bought. Big money cars do not exist in the rat rod world. Because they are built as cheaply as possible, long garage stays are out. If you are lacking certain skills, however, there are specialty garages that will help you out: Cornfield Customs of Loveland, Ohio; Roadkill Customs of Mesa, Arizona; and Village Customs Rat Rod Shop in Clayton, North Carolina, are all aces.Hidden in the depths of the collector car hobby is a beast all its own. Built from the ground up from salvaged parts and random trinkets such as old tools, road signs, beer bottles and mailboxes, the possibilities are endless for the car most commonly known as a “rat rod.” SEM Hotrod-paketet i mattvit är det perfekta valet för dig som vill ge din bil en unik och stilren look.

Like all wild animals they may attack you if cornered or trapped. Try not to corner rats, because they could bite you in an attempt to escape. Basically, if you provoke them, there is a chance they will turn on you and attack. Unfortunately, the answer to the question do rats attack humans, is sometimes yes. And the experience is definitely something you’ll want to avoid at all cost. As you can imagine, rats are riddled with diseases. This means their bites can spread a wide variety of viruses and make you seriously ill. That being said, in general rats will rarely bite you. Although there have been reports of them biting babies, bed ridden people and the homeless, rat bites are not actually very common. These animals are mostly nocturnal, and try to avoid humans are much as possible.If you are attempting to catch the rat, it may bite you in an attempt to defend itself. This is why rat catching is always a job better left to professionals.

This is also why they will sometimes attack babies. During the night your baby will drool or vomit, and the rat is attracted by that.Attempting to disturb the rats nest could end badly. This is especially true if it has babies. Do rats attacks humans? Well, if someone attacked your children what would you do?

Being victim of a rat bite isn’t something you want either yourself or a family member to go through. Plus, you don’t want to expose your staff or customers to this treat if you’re trying to run a business.

While the official definition doesn’t specify a type of car, most understand in everyday parlance that hot rods are old or classic American cars with modified engines. The National Street Rod Association defines a hot rod as an “automobile of 1948 or earlier that has undergone some modernization to the engine, transmission, interior, or anything else. A hot rod… is designed for racing.”Unlike a hot rod, a street rod is made for the street (hence the name). Most states have different definitions for just what exactly constitutes a street rod. For example, in Kentucky, a street rod is defined as a vehicle weighing less than 10,000 pounds and manufactured before 1949 or has at least been reconstructed to “look like a vehicle from that period.” In Pennsylvania, a street rod is any vehicle that is a 1948 model (or older) and has custom parts. You will have to look up the laws in your home state to figure out what rules apply in your area.
