Hot Rods have become an important part of the American culture since they first arrived on the scene in the 30's and 40's. Later on these pimped cars went on to rule the roost of customised automotive world and there was no looking back! Many other forms were shaped up or developed from this basic idea of hot rods, like rat rods and street rods.
Rat Rods were generally considered as the siblings of hot rods, which were not as good looking as it's parents! These were really built to look ugly and take quirly shapes! Even though they look ugly, for most of them, they are the most popular concepts going these days next to lowriders. They are built, just for pure fun where the engine performances are tuned up along with other features keeping the bare costs to minimum. These are also considered as a piece of art by many car enthusiasts and they even represent one's creation and status.
