Rat rod – a custom built luxury machine, with an exterior designed to look the opposite -ratty and worn down.

Read it online at Autonet.

Favourite line:

Then, couple those 500 hp specs with the niche’s bare essentials styling, and the power-to-weight ratio of some of these cars is excellent. They’re also not easy to drive. In fact, the idea is that the harder it is to drive, the better the rat rod.

These are some of the aforementioned rat rods built by the crew of the show ‘Vegas Rat Rods‘, premiering April 17 on Discovery Canada.

And this is Twiggy, the female star of the show, whom I interviewed for this column, and great Canadian girl.
