Friends, family bond over love of old cars

For a group of fiends and family, that kind of passion brought them together to start an appreciation for the old American car — Graveyard Customs, a car club for the modern rat rod.

So what is a rat rod? Well it's a throwback to the old hot rods from a couple of generations ago. Usually taken from the frames of old American coupes, roadsters and pickups from the 1920s, '30s, '40s and '50s, a rat rod can be whatever its owner wants it to be. Some call it an art form while others call it a hobby. For the Graveyard Customs crew, whatever you call it, their creations are definitely one-of-a-kind.

This is the bike i built... 20" stingray frame with a 70cc wedged in there just perfectly. had to grind down the left crank arm and cut the clutch arm on the engine but other than that it fits like a glove. also the first incarnation with this motor was a 26" norco with fat whitewalls and a bent springer. sadly i crashed it at 30 mph haha... oh well get back on the saddle!
