i totally agree i don't even like the term "ratrod". fads come and go in the hobby pro street was the chit then pro touring now restomod and unrestored patina is actually kind of cool i just don't think ratrod is cool enough to command 15k. that is over the top rat. i would runaway from that.

Totally agree. I love rat rods. Love to see the "engineering" in them.
However, after riding around in a few of them in city traffic, they are downright dangerous.
That's why you rarely see them driving around...they're usually just parked as a static conversation piece at the local hot spot.
