Now Here Are Some Pipes !
This is certainly not a Cobra, or even a Ford for that matter, but I saw this Rat Rod shop truck in Temecula and have to say it's pretty cool.
Looks like a promotional vehicle for a local chopper shop and I'll bet you can hear it coming half a mile away. My guess is they will just let it continue rust, should look even more 'rustic' in years to come ;) Enjoy! http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...DSC_0006-1.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC_0007.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC_0013.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...DSC_0016-1.jpg |
Now that is a thing of beauty
Not sure if its just me or what, but when I see such a rat rod in the condition as shown I appreciate all the subtleties that went into its build get Goosebumps and can hear the rumble of the beast, friggin awesome. tin-man

I'm with you guys...I'm a closet rat rod fan. Does anything actually rust in California, tho? Joke might be on them.. ;)
and for the pyro in all of us... - Allen. |
that almost looks like some flex hosing? those look like hose clamps as well. i wonder.
neat! i like the easy access to the engine :) |

Thats not a shop truck, it's a street sweeper.

Here's one of my son's Rat Rod. He and his identical twin brother built it themselves, '29 Model A body, hand built chassis w/four link rear and it
it's on air bags. Skip |
Well doggone it....the file size of each photo is less than 39 kb but they fail every time I try to upload them. Any ideas guys?
|
I like it!
What are the tail lights from? |
I think the tail lights are old olds or buick. --

Here is another photo of the tail lights ... I think PANAVIA is right, GM and tin-man nailed it, 59 Caddy ... Also think a beer keg would make a pretty cool gas tank :cool:

Here is another Rat Rod truck with some serious pipes! 1929 Dodge Pick Up with a slightly more recent 454.
Saw this at the second annual Saratoga car show … went with fellow BACC south bay members Dave and Lane. Very nice show, about 130 cars. Check it out :cool: http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC_0315.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC_0317.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC_0318.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC_0319.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC_0320.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC_0322.jpg |
