In short: Jason King's 1947 Bedford truck "rat rod" turned heads at the state's biggest auto show. The 2024 Rockynats attracted thousands of car and bike enthusiasts from around the country.

The “rat rod” scene has been around the hot-rod world for some time. It seems the early-model custom truck culture has come to accept the “rat rod” truck trend and its lifestyle.
