    I agree and I think it takes a lot of creativity to make these cars, more than cutoms even. I know it seems kinda dumb, but there are even sorts of rules in rat rodding and its hard to make something that would normally look like such a peice to look so cool.
    Not to mention most of em are fast and loud as hell

    That's what I thought!

    I would love to have it to build a more traditional street rod from.

    I've been doing a lot of looking at the price of old iron recently......

    I have been thinking of a nailhead powered model A or T but a vintage Buick with the straight 8 stuck in it would be a cool start.

    I like it.

    Apparently others do too as it's got a pretty high bid on it. You'd be the only one at the car show with that sucker!:TU:

    Diggin It! that windshield is crazy!
    Always wanted one of those. I think they are a cool work of art, plus you never have to worry about people leaning up against it and scrathin the paint!

    What's amazing to me is the amount of work that goes into making these look like no work went into them.

    Totally cool, but I agree it's definitely a marriage ender.

    Joyce states, the present owner must be getting married, the new owned definitely won't be married, and I definitely won't be married if I bring it home.:laugh: I still like it, maybe I can hide it in the barn and she won't notice.
