Reviving the Rat Rod Wagon! | Our Rat Rod Go Kart Build
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 มิ.ย. 2018
- Our Briggs and Stratton Rat Rod Wagon hasn't run since 2016, and it deserves better. We're making a few cosmetic changes to this rat rod build to make it look better, improve safety, and drivability. Should we build another rat rod go kart?
Thanks for Watching!

I just can not explain the joy you boys have brought to me this morning!
Yeah this is great. It really gets the brain turning on what I need my old grasshopper to be.
A metal tractor seat looks like it would fit perfect between those wheels and act like fenders above the wheels.
MullinPerformance yes!!
100%! I think it'd fit the motif, too.
I've been saying this since they started this build
It's so cool how it's front engine rear wheel drive, like a little car.

baby driveshaft lol
"Should we build another rat rod go kart?"
*YES*
MOAR
pair of rear guards .... will make it a little safer and will keep you in place
rob burdack then it wouldn't be a rat rod. The point of it it for funky odd looks not safe. But I see what you mean
putting rear tubs on it wont take away from it being a rat rod in any way shape or form ..... its not like they have to be fabricated to show grade standards
They can shape some rear guards from sheet metal and make them look cool, as well as protecting that right hip.
GO SkidMaRk - Shape them, what like with an English Wheel, make those Boi's Work..!
rob burdack lol yes that’s what I was thinking. And the tire wouldn’t rub on their pants lmao 😄
I had a 3 hp Briggs & Stratton that I built for a mini back a couple years back. Port and polished, shaved the head, lightened the flywheel, I even welded and did my own grind on the cam lobes, drilled the jet, and made my own little intake from a tuna can. Never got stiffer springs, but that thing would rev out and pull pretty hard and the lope at idle sounded so nice with a long tube header.
I can't believe it's been two years since the Rat Rod build. Time sure flies. John and Ike making me forget my troubles one video at a time. Keep up the great work guys! Thanks.
This was one of the first videos of yours I watched back in the day. I remember CarsandCameras back with 20k subs, and waiting for new episodes of this kart that never came. Oh how things have changed
I'd love to see a built _B&S_ engine!
If I'm not mistaken ARC makes performance parts for 5hp Briggs engines...
I'll have to check them out, thanks!
Would love to see that!
Brodie Bennett - You mean these Guy's www.arcracing.com/briggs-stratton/ ..? Yeah some Cool Shiz on that site..! Preeeetty Pricie tho some of it is..! Check out those Billet Rod's 125$ Buckaroo's..!
Yeah they should build a vintage racing kart with a built five horse Briggs I would be so awesome
You asked for it, and here it is! The Rat Rod Wagon is BACK!
CarsandCameras hiiii your the favorite
CarsandCameras YESSSS!!!!
CarsandCameras giveaway?
Add a fender to the right side to save your shorts.
That 90 degree gear box would work nicely on the drag rail. 670 turned sideways with the exhaust sticking up on both sides, ram air scoop in the middle, driveshaft back to gear box and a nice short chain. Likely improve driveline efficiency and trap times. Looks like it has a fairly heavy splined input shaft so it should handle the power without any problem.
1:19 "Bad ideas, brilliant executions." Dave Freiberger. This should be the new carsandcameras motto.
Cole-slaw i thought it was david
The grille made it look so much better
the magic box is a right angle pto adapter for a tractor,it should be able to take about 250 hp
Yup. Straight cut gears tend to hold more power, and they have a sick whine too ;-)
Thank you, I need one
Reread his comment with "Momma says" at the start, in Forrest Gump's voice.
@@izzyplusplusplus1004 LOL!!! I totally did it and laughed myself to coughing!!! Lol!!
Thank you! I was wondering what it is!
You guys need to make another rat rod cart out of a wheelbarrow tub!!! 😁😁😁
That's what I told them. Make one that Ike actually can fit into.
Kevin Eads I am currently building one LOL. also building a golf cart with a 670cc, front and rear end out of a John Deere Gator, and 44 inch Ground Hawg tires.
twowheeltimmy88 no freaking way I'm doing one too
Yes I totally agree.
Make it look like a t bucket
I love that you guys have built awesome machines all these years and are repectful enough to try really hard on not tearing up the lawn. That is really hard not to just rip it apart with your creations...
Hay CarsandCameras JNaasty here.
I think a easy modification for you guys to do. Would be to put on front Tire fenders on and modifying the location of the brake and gas pedals on to the left and right tire covers. It also gives you a more adequate location for your feet by you being able to dig your heels into a set of pegs mounted on the wheel wells.
For the rear back tire covers you can not only protect your pants from getting torn up. While at the same time you are giving your 6 a firm stable location to be planted in.
Ps On a side note you know those shocks that come on the Mongoose dual suspension mountain bikes. The shock for the rear. Those would make excellent rear shocks for that Red Rider. I mean you would have to build a custom 4-link suspension to use it maybe A 5 link rear suspension might be better to use. But I know you can see it in your head just by reading this comment and thank we can do it & It Will Be Fine.
Build a 5hp flathead!!! ARC Racing sells parts as well as Dyno cams
Hey guys, could you please get the AWD go kart and do a couple of laps of the Cars&Cameras Grand Prix?
Rares Cherciu yea! And the amphibious one? Hahahaha! Could you imagine that?
That is so cool
กเหก
You guys have inspired me to build a custom go kart. Always wanted one as a kid. Now as a adult I have the money to play around.
Great to see the rat rod wagon making a comeback
Soi FACUNDO GOMEZ
Wh
Why don't you all try to make the quietest go-kart you can, it is a lot harder than you both may think, and it may prove to be a good vid
really hard with a flathead, I made a big muffler for a minibile out of some 3" tubing, a ton of stainless steel wool and some internal baffles. It was very quiet but the Brriggs was still noisey itself.
David Starr That would be the challenge, to make not only the muffler quiet but to some how quiet the engine noise too and maybe on a different new go-kart. I have a stock 212 on a homemade 12v generator and it is amazlingly quiet but most of the noise is from the engine, I can almost not hear the exhaust over the engine itself.
Simple: go electric and avoid using a chain if at all possible.
I liked the grill :-(
Me to
me too
Same
same it made me sad that they got rid of it
Same
An Old Tractor Seat 💺 would fit that build pretty well and keep ya centered on the kart , my favorite build btw 💯
Hey you should turbo the race mower
luke odonnell the race mower is dead I think
Joe Montgomery Yeah but so was this build until this episode
4th comment btw I was just "last night" rewatching the ratrod wagon series and thinking you guys should revisit it lol
Hip guards for the rear wheels.
I love the way you're grinding, cutting and wrenching on the mini wagon, like a couple of Keebler elves, and also the joy and excitement it brings you to drive the wagon on the wet grass, it seems like you 2 are like a couple of 10 year old boys having the time of your life!...I hope you didn't pee in your pants!
Grill was cooler
Grill was much cooler.. lights too.. taking off all the old ratty stuff and slapping on new go power sports stuff seems like its just defeating the idea of a rat rod wagon completely.
Agree look better with the grill
Gearbox is for grain augers
Allows tractor to power auger from the side.
Also used on go carts...
Power Tour has always been one of my bucket list items...........youll have a blast.......
New grill, headlights, fenders and ITLL BE FINNNEEEE
That thing is SWEET! Needs a seatback/rear fender leg guards. It makes more sense than most of your projects which is not necessarily good I guess.
upside downdog lol. It'll be fine
Isaac it'll be fine
I think it’s fine, just be aware when ridin it...
in this case it’s ok to give up some safety for a massive cool factor.
Its crazy its been that long! Good ole briggs! That grill deserves to be sitting on one of you guys fireplace mantle! Lol i guessed 35 mph
I just finished rebilding a 5hp Briggs and Stratton
PUT THE GRILL BACK! Way better looking, but GREAT JOB! Fun to watch right now
One of my favorite builds you guys have done
A couple of tire guards would keep the wheels off your pants and help keep you centered on her. Lol just a suggestion. 😉
yes! like one mini-bike fender from GPS cut lengthwise down the center so the inside edges of the tires are guarded. but you still have the tires sticking out on the out side edge for the rat rod stance/look.
Its open wheel. I think an old tractor seat would work.
The most understeering kart I've ever seen.. love it
Man did I miss that thing. Feels like a classic and still rips!
Idea for the seat.... small metal tractor seat. It would fit with the rat rod feel.
This build was the first build I started watching with you guys!! Awesome to see it again
Two years already? Bloody hell time flys. ..
·Flies
Love your channel keep up the good work!
The wagon was the first project that got me into your channel way back when. Y’all have come a long way!
I have always loved this thing! This build made me get a welder and start fabrication on my own carts. Build it farther, sick wheel wells for the back and maybe some old school brake lights. Build up the engine or maybe a swap. I've always wanted to see y'all change a vertical shaft from a mower into a horizontal shaft!!
Hitch for another wagon? Lol
Tanner Guy agreed lol
Tanner Guy and lower gearing
Yes agreed
Love that thing especially that magic box.
I almost forgot love what you guys do and I love the rat rod wagon as well that’s what got me started watching your channel
Have always liked that wagon build. New tires look sweet 😃
*Make a Trailer for the car show!!! LARGE Wagon!!!*
_Maybe Gear is for lower speeds to pull more lol!_
And a New Seat lol! Tractor Seat
StarPuss www.ToxicRedNeck.Com I have to agree a trailer would be awesome.
It was this very project that brought me to this channel.
The beginning of the rat rod is when I started watching and subscribed! Don't let it die!
my favorite build, glad you brought it back!
Love watching all your videos all the way from Belfast ;)
Thanks!
This was the series that made me sub like 2+ years ago
Glad it's back, The rat rod wagon is rad!
Love ur guys videos when I was younger I worked at a small engine shop when I wasn't framing houses with my dad an I would go around an buy an barter every go kart frame I could find and every 5hp Briggs I could to build things to ride. Brings me back to when I was younger
Nathan Cannon Nice!👍🏻
Want the grill on it
I honestly had no idea people liked the grill
CarsandCameras its very classic for rat rods
I was shocked you took off the grill
I thought it was nice. Just a little polishing was all she needed
Taking the headlights off hurt me just as bad
Super awesome videos that thing's a beast👍✌✊👊👌👌🤛🤛😎😎💪💪👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥
Crazy how I watched you build the rat rod wagon , time definitely flys
The grill and headlights looked sooo good!
Issac reminds me of hank from king of the hill
It looks better with the pull start cover off, you should leave it off and rig up one of those old hand crank starters.
Experimental Fun it does
Hey, it’s you
Breaks hand*
And an old tractor seat so it can keep the open wheel look.
I legit watch this whole build last night
That rat rod wagon was why I subscribed and started following you guys. Good to see it.
Add chrome wheelie bars to the wagon!!!
Nooooooooooo I loved the grill rip grill :(
Awesome videos guys 👍 love all the projects
Please do it! Build a Briggs 5hp flathead in real time, tear down, assessment, rebuild. Think of us guys who are on a tight budget and give the best bang-for-the-buck! Awesome guys, keep up the fun!
awesome video
this build is what got me hooked on your channel. ahhh the good times
Last time I watched on of your videos it was when you we’re halfway done making the rat rod... you guys have gotten so big
It’s been 2 years?! Wow I’ve been watching you guys for longer than I realized..
Never clicked on a video so quick #notificationsquad
Same here
And here..! (Some Number from Manchester UK..!)
"this thing is no speed demon" (a few minutes later) "this thing is a a speed demon!"
Wow has it been 2 years that's crazy I loved that build one of my favorites .
I liked the grill and head lights, really added to the rat rod look.
50 views, 59 likes i am confused
its a rat... make back fenders from 5gal buckets and save your hips!
Bro it's isn't a rat rod without huge rear end with skinny fronts, a grill and big horse power. WHICH YOU LACK!!!
Gzbufjfhh
@@notaracist171
Yeah and he has more subscribers. Which you lack! 😂
KnownBarkerT I got more then you🙃
@@notaracist171
That's fine. But he has more than both of use combined
Aloha from Hawai'i guys.
WOW I forgot about this build, has it been 2 years already? The older I get the faster time flies. You guys should put vertical butt protector plates on each side, it'll keep you from sliding around and give you more confidence to go faster doing laps on the property. Don't ever change that Briggs motor for a more modern Honda clone. That old flat-head Briggs is a perfect match for the rat rod like the old flat-head Ford V-8s are to full size rat rods. I like how the frame and other steel parts got "rattier" with age adding to the look. Don't ever paint the rusted metal, just Ospho it to stop further rusting while adding protection. Mahalo nui for another great video.
I always thought that wagon was cool, I'm glad you broke it back out. Thanks, guys.
Good vid
see if you can cut down a set of clamshell tractor fenders for the rear, that might help save your pants! :)
this was my fav series
Hell yea for some minor mods like a cam and higher flowing intake be kinda cool to make a bug catcher intake haha real 50/60s great vid ad always guys love this thing i
this was literally one of my favorite builds...
Grillllllyy !!!!!!! NoooooOOOOooooOOooO , sob
+1 for the full face helmets and Ike's motorbike leathers from the last run, keep it safe. Integrate a seat so you have back support with some wheel guards on the rat cart, cam the motor. Love the show and content.
That kart has always been my favorite! The rat rod build is the reason I subscribed to this channel!
And you should get the Frankenstein’s racing mower back out I’m building one and I need more ideas thanks, IT I’ll BE FINE
What about the black widow go cart
Those rear tires really complete the rat rod look
Last time I watched cars and cameras was 2 years ago and that’s because I was in hospital and forgot about you guys but I’m glad to be back. The last project I saw was that crazy mini razor thing lol.
Guys, I'm an old man, turn 70 last week. I heard you say B&S engine parts were hard to find? Are they belly up? I remember powering my old mountain bikes with Briggs engines, there larger 7.5 or 9hp engines were great.
Mike Hale Happy belated Birthday!
Thanks for your comment, greatly appreciated.
Mike, Briggs is far from belly up. For any parts, just find the part number for what you need and search on the internet. Many parts can be bought on eBay and Amazon. Don’t think we will see a shortage of Briggs parts in the next century
Stock parts are available just fine. Hopped up racing parts have pretty much been phased out in favor of OHV engine parts.
Do a 80cc 2stroke swap and swap the tub for a wheel barrow tub
That build made me subscribe to this channel. Wicked build
Keep doing the track stuff when you can! It's awesome to see so many things on one track! Build it on a budget! (bring back the race mower!)
Put some fenders on the back of it🤔
I love y’all
your "magic box" looks like a 90 degree PTO box, glad to see this project back running around, sweet build
Fox Nakamori it is a pto box
Thank you for bringing this back
