Rat Rods are not to be confused with the somewhat closely related "traditional" hot rod, which is an accurate re-creation or period-correct restoration of a hot rod from the same era. Most Rat Rods appear "unfinished" (whether they actually are or are not), with just the bare essentials to be driven. The rat rod is the visualization of the idea of function over form. Rat Rods are meant to be driven!

SCA celebrates The Year of the Rat and 'Rat Rod' culture. The exhibition is comprised of two actual Rat Rods and artworks inspired by car culture and rats. Artists and 'mechanics' of culture include, Cletus Riedel, Bill Murphy, J. Ward, DuWayne Blankley, Neill Jaeger & Rebecca Blankley.
