Father/ Daughter build in Norway

I ran across this build from Norway, looks like HAMB material to me.

I dig how he's got his little girl so "into it", i bet she ask's to drive it first

That's great!

 

Now that is cool...and the guy obviously knows what he's doing too.
a good thread to keep watch on.

I guess arguing over this being a "Rat" rod or not is a waste of time, huh??? LoL

 

The future of traditional rodding is alive and well!

 

that is really cool.

 

Cool that you found this post

This guy has buildt a few nice traditional cars before
and i'm shure it will be a good thread to follow

a few pics of his earlyer build's....

 

Very nice pictures there. I really like them both and the thread he has going is excellent. I'll have to keep an eye out on that one.

 

Cool Projest . One Question. Are they gonna work with those freaky masks on all the time..........

 

"The Rat and the Cat build a Rat Rod" What they call a "Rat Rod" is a much nicer than a lot of the shit you see slapped together around this side of the pond...nice work, and they are using some parts I'd love to get my hands on. BTW, the masks kinda weird me out, too.

 

WOW! I've never seen a child's book that included blueprints for a car in it. That would have been one of my favorite books when I was a kid.

 

That's really awsome. I even dig the "point break" theme!!

 

I thought the exact same thing. I wish that book was in English...maybe I could learn Norweigan...

 

Peter Spier (born June 6, 1927 in Amsterdam) is a Dutch-born American author and been living in the states since '52

The original name of the book is Tin Lizzie............wonder!!

and i'm shure you could get it at Amazon....so go get your kids some inspiration

 

That 34 roadster is soooo classy.

Thickstun head covers, mccullogh blower, thickstun air cleaner thru the hood, E&J lights.. very, very, nice.

I've got that book "Tin Lizze" somewhere in a box I was saving it for my grandkids..... HMMM! The search is on.

 

Terrific project and what really amazes me is that it's happening across the pond. How do people in Norway become die hard hot rodders? I guess it really is a international hobby. Very cool.

Oh, and what's up with the masks? Rat must be a rock star or something...

 

What an interesting way to inspire the young ones,into the hot rod world.

 

Hey Rich (the Rod-ster) is there something wrong with me, or is everyone else affected the same way? Everytime I try to read your posts I keep looking at your avatar and forget where I'm up to.

I agree there, the 34 came out classy
The Rodder's Journal number fifteen got a great picture of it........

 

I remember drooling over some nice parts on the green one.... Does he still have the pickup?

 

Thats pretty cool!! He's getting the tyke off on the right start...I am sure she will be one hell of a builder one of these days

 

Not heard anything else so i'm shure he still got it

Why...do you need a new Truck on the "farm"

 

I wish I could get my 7-year-old so interested, although he does get to be a rock star whenever I use the Stalker to pick him up at school.

The masks are a great idea. It emphasizes that this hobby should be fun, and it keeps him from pasting his daughter all over the internet.

 

It's good to see a youngster getting involved in the madness we call rods. I can understand the masks for anonymity reasons, but those are a little bit creeeeeepy if I say so myself.

 

I wonder if they make welding masks like those!!??

 

Great thread , But they got a serious rodent problem.....they build Hot Rods....LOL

 

Hello All
Just wanted to thank you all for your friendly remarks to our story.
That really helps us keeping up the spirit. It is not many days left until our deadline, the 20th of July.
We painted the frame today so now the fun part can begin, we are ready to start the final assembly.
By the way, there still are a few things that not has been sorted out yet, so we will see how things develop.

As many of you have pointed out, the masks are for privacy and also add a bit of humor to our thread.

Hey, Bondobob, I am definately not a rock star, I am just a normal guy.


Best regards

Jubb
