    Hey, now wait a minute!!! There were no bad drugs in the sixties, just some slightly better then others!!!!! I tried most of them, and my strange ideas don't come anywhere's near being that fugly!!!!!

    Good thing I don't see a lot of these alleged trend setters in person with the owner present, got an idea I would become quite unpopular if I were to express my opinion...... Not that I have a tendency to tell people what I'm really thinking or anything!!!!

    Hey Uncle Bob, that pig you got a picture of, she was uptown last night!!! Went home with some dude who had a couple to many cocktails....... Her twin sister was there, too!!!!!

    I guess even top builders and shops like Posies and Foose turn out some duds now and then. I am not nuts about the two cars pictured, and feel the same way about some that Coddington has done. And let's not even talk about some of George Barris' creations.

    But, as you guys have pointed out, the magazines react as if every car that these guys create is some ground breaking, trend setting car. Sometimes we car guys look at them and say "what the h*** was he thinking."

    I still think this is one of my favorites though, and it came from a little known builder. He did have one asset you guys mentioned though, LOTS OF DRUGS.

    I dont like it at all.. It looks wierd and nothing matches. And if your going to build a ride like this which is going to be seen by many peoples then how the hell can you miss the gaps between the two plates on the roof? Anyway Posie have built quite some rides before but the last projects havent been in my taste area.

    @Henry: Isnt Foose car named P-32? and not P-37? I've some vague memorys of that..
    Nothing beat cubic inches...

    I know I'm far in the minority here, but I actually like both cars. The only thing on that Chevy that I'd change is to add some color instead of primer gray.

    That's what makes the world so interesting - dull place if we all agreed - (even though you're misguided about Posie's car )

    It may be a Chebbie, but has real power - a Roush six banger Ford

    The funny thing is the more I look at the Chevy the more I think he could made just as big a mess and saved money starting with a VW Bug.

    Well I am for one glad I didn't see the car at York this weekend. WIth the heat and seeing that thing, I would have definitely gotten sick. His last several cars have been interesting, certainly not good lookers. Weird might be a fitting description. I think that the Extremeliner may have been his last nice one. Enought weirdness, Ken, time to move back from the edge.
