    Think we all have our own idea of what constitutes a traditional rod, and those I do like!!! My main complaint is these clowns who insist on using "traditional" as an excuse for shoddy work, unsafe components and /or workmanship, poorly planned projects, and trashy paint jobs!!!! I remember the cars some of my Dad's pals had, certainly wasn't nothing left half done or cobbled together on their cars---and they had to fabricate a lot of their own pieces, not just dial up 1-800-Hot-Rods and bolt things together when the parts came!!!!

    Good thing the horse is dead, at least he doesn't feel the pain from the continued floggings!!!!!!!!

    Absolutly (said in best Rocky voice). But it does sound better than Rat Rod....... And don't get me started on "Patina" as a final finish............ As for shoddy work..........I resemble that remark...........
