The modern definition of 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.[1] These parts can include non-automotive items that have been repurposed, such as using a rifle as a gear shifter, wrenches as door handles, and old saws as sun visors. A rat rod may or may not have extraneous decorations, but will always exude a great deal of personality due to the imagination required of the builder.An alternate, and outdated, definition of a "rat rod" is a style of hot rod or custom car that, in most cases, imitates (or exaggerates) the early hot rods of the 1940s, 1950s, and early-1960s. The style is not to be confused with the somewhat closely related "traditional" hot rod, which is an accurate re-creation or period-correct restoration of a hot rod from the same era.
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.[2][3]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.[4] 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
The Ford Model T (colloquially known as the Tin Lizzie, Leaping Lena, jitney or flivver) is an automobile produced by Ford Motor Company from October 1, 1908, to May 26, 1927.[8][9] It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, that made car travel available to middle-class Americans. The relatively low price was partly the result of Ford's efficient fabrication, including assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting.

I just retired from my job, so now I'm getting back into modeling that I haven't done for 40+ years ! I found your very well done channel abd now I need to buy about 6 of this kit to build all the variations I thought of as I watched this vid. Thanks for the inspiration !!
I build this kit in the mid to late 1960's-plasic was black instead of white and the stock T wheels and tires were molded together

I got the original AMT kit (1973) with the 2 piece tires but it only had one body. I built the stock 25 T, but I will buy another Chopped T and use the body for the assembled custom frame from the old kit.
Another classic kit that has stood the test of time. The fact you could build 2 complete cars really made this kit attractive to a kid on a limited allowance.

I love it when you throw in those sound effects you do!😂 You sound just like and an old T-model putting down the road. 😂 You do a good road runner " beep beep" too. Your good and that. 😂
I had two of these kits, building one as a 1925 Model T automobile in pristine condition, painted in Mr. Ford's favourite colour, the other as the pickup truck, just slightly worn, and a bit dusty. Actually, I had built the car first, using Testor’s gloss black enamel spray can. The second I built a short time later (weeks, not months), using Tamiya’s gloss black lacquer spray can; it came out virtually flawless-so much better than the Testor’s that I quickly made it the sedan (coupe?), and with the former, I popped off the trunk part (cyanoacrylate adhesive, not being solvent-based, can be very amenable to the steel of an Xacto blade); I then added the pickup truck bed that I had painted with Testor’s gloss black enamel spray, for its slightly “wrinklier” finish (no, it was not to the level of “orange peeling”; just not smooth). When I showed them to a few of my neighbours in my apartment complex, some of the old folks fondly had recalled to me childhood memories in which an elder had taken them on a ride in his Model T car.
My uncle built the exact same kit almost 60 years ago in the early 1960's. I still have the remnants which were molded in black styrene back then!

Thanks for this, I need all the help I can get. I'm NOT and experienced car modeler and I'm going to attempt combing this with parts from a Revell hot rod, to try making a version that looks like my real life T-Bucket hot rod! I'm feeling a little intimidated, as the "instructions" are little more than: *"here's a bunch of parts... GOOD LUCK!"*
You inspired me to buy and build this kit! Thanks for the push to build another great looking model for my display shelf.

Wow, where to start! Loving these old classic truck builds! They remind me of the AMT 36 Ford service truck kit. The fact you can build TWO complete kits and STILL have leftover parts is srsly great valu! Way to go AMT! Loving the weathering you did on both kits, especially the stock truck, it reminds me of something I saw on 'The Waltons' once :) Thanks for the final show off- the stock truck van looks like it's being featured on QVC- "...hurry! only 250 of these left!!!' Keep the kits comin'!

Love this build. I might have done the convertible top in something like a light beige with a faded look similar to the bed of the truck to give it a little contrast between the top and the body, but that's me. Both of yours look great. Love watching you build your kits and can't wait to see your next build. 😊👍👍

Chris, did a quick check on the rear axle for a 1925 Ford and the model "T" is placed correctly. Have heard in the past that it seems like there is not enough clearance for the rear wheels. Enjoy watching those two kits going together. Keep on doing your thing!

Nice builds! I recently purchased an original 1964 release of this kit. And I will take the measurements from the original chopped'T'coupe, and make the alterations on the three repops kits I have to build these in the classic style steering column. I think that the verticle steering column looks just plain goofy! I don't remember if it was the Norm Grabowski Kooky 'T' from the 77 Sunset Strip TV series that started the verticle steering column trend or not, but it just doesn't look right. I will also be puting different engines Into these builds. At least one of them will get a Flathead V-8 engine, in the 1950 style Hot Rod look.
very nice builds and very cool kit - sometimes you sound like building a kit is a matter of how fast you build it ! I like to take my time and enjoing the process and maybe use a week or two, when you say two days - people are different and don`t like the same process : ) -but i love what you did to these kits.
