Gearz Episodes: The Rat Roaster

The Rat Roaster

Season: 1 | Episode: 12

There is no doubt that the '32 Ford is one of the most legendary cars ever built. Today, Stacey shows that you can actually build one of these cars yourself, and that hot rodding is alive and well, by jumping into a wild, late '60's-style roadster project called..."The Rat Roaster". If you were a street-racin', hot-footed muscle car driver back in 1968...this was the car that you didn't want to see pull up beside you.
