The RAT ROD Go Kart build begins! We've been looking forward to this for awhile now and are super excited to get it going! The build idea started when we found an old wheel barrow bucket on the side of the road almost a year ago, and a year of searching Facebook Marketplace for the perfect old derelict go kart frame to mount it on. Now the question is, what do we call it? Is it a RAT ROD? Is it a Go Kart? Is it a mini Hot Rod? Is it a RAT ROD GO KART? Or is it simply a RAT KART? The bigger question, is anyone searching for a RAT KART BUILD video to watch?

Thanks for posting! It’s great to see you two working in the shop together 👍 my son is 3 he still likes hanging out in my shop but he still has some years before he really gets into building projects with me. My nephew and I swapped a built up Honda XR 120cc into a Honda CR big wheel frame a few years back, the bike turned out awesome and we both had a great time 🙂 Take care

Hanging out is how it starts! Looks like you'll have no shortage of projects for him!

Welcome back. Well chosen project, Rat Rods are a American symbol to the public that you don't need to be GMC of Ford to make a vehicle. Never had a "Rat" pass buy on the street without breaking my neck to get a longer look. Only one name fits: (Drago Rat Rod) Never mind its a kart.....It's a Rat, thats all that maters.

@DragoWerx 4 года назад

It's amazing what some people are putting together once they are past the name brand hang ups and build with what they have... hopefully this will continue the trend!

This is really cool! I learned to weld when I was 40!! Absorb everything you can and remember: If you mess it up, the first time is not a mistake - it's a learning experience!!! Oh and if you doing something and a helmet is suggested, WEAR IT!!! TRUST ME on this. Have a great time. Can't wait to see it run!!!

@shadjohnson1740 4 года назад

just watched these in reverse order. I like the new intro, where you walk off and your channel name shows up on screen. I really dig the fact that your videos don't follow a set formula and seem to be edited/formatted diferently, some channels seem like you're watching the same video over and over...they're just working on something different. You guys have time lapse, cinematic stuff, some stuff set to music and sometimes you do some funny stuff...lot of stuff going on! keep it up!

@FukTheGovernment465 4 года назад

Next time bud, instead of cutting the thick spindles and bending them sense your using a 110VMig welder cut the frame tubing it's self and bend the tubing and re weld. This way the Mig welder can get good penetration welds 110V Migs don't like much over 3/16 steel. Looking good though keep it up!

@DragoWerx 4 года назад

Thanks! We actually did consider cutting the frame at first, but, we have no idea what this thing is and didn't want to mutilate it. It's a cool frame and we figured as soon as we cut it someone would let us know that we just destroyed a piece of Go-Karting history.

@FukTheGovernment465 4 года назад

@@DragoWerx I understand what your saying their that's a very good point.. Well that being said, keep on building bud. Oh and hope you had a good Christmas.

Please teach all about PPE !! Otherwise, great job.

@DragoWerx 4 года назад

Thanks for watching! Did we miss something on the PPE?

@500yardsplus 4 года назад

Drago Werx Safety Glasses should be worn at all times when using power tools and while using striking tools such as hammers. Gloves should be worn especially while using angle grinders.

Great project where did you get the front wheels I want to build a nostalgic dragster with my boys

@DragoWerx 4 года назад

Northern Tool www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200660525_200660525 If we did it again we'd do the Ironton 16" with solid tire and cut the tire off for the rim (we couldn't find the 16" Ironton with a pneumatic tire). We have a set of 12" Ironton's but they looked too small but they are much better wheels. We'd love to see the dragster when you and your boys get it done!

Is this a racing go kart chassis that was de-comissioned and used for this build?

It's an older Yerf Dog frame. Don't know what the model number is but here's a link to an intact one www.purplewave.com/auction/140709/item/D1045

What frame was used in this build? Thanks

@DragoWerx 4 года назад

We think it's a Yerf Dog, we haven't found an exact picture of one like it, but have found some with the same design on the side bars that are two seat.

How much did all of it cost you?

@DragoWerx 4 года назад

Hard to say, some of the stuff we had, but engine/torque converter/wheels and tires was the bulk of the expense...maybe $500 with all the odds and ends; brake, shift knob, pedals etc. Frame was a $50 FB Market find.
