wheres the minus? just looks like a shiny ratrod to me.. the car would have been a great looking T , it appears someones just cashin in on the ratrod vibe but also keeping the streetrod crowd happy..
im not hating just looks like an after thought to me..

"Minus the rat" as in no rusty, bent, worn out, broken, ill fitting, falling off, non automotive parts.....

It's just perfect as it is. I wouldn't want anything sticking up any higher than there is now.

I have no personal interest in the car, just thought it had the "rat" influence that was nicely done....
Come on now, you've seen the rusty, bullet hole riddled road sign for floor board POS. Which would you rather drive?

I love the car, very good stance and a different look. I am not much of a photoshopper so dont laugh, but it gives you the basic idea for a blower.Last edited by mooneye777; 07-05-2008 at 07:12 AM.

I would think that you of all people would know what a Rat is. Apparently any car made with "parts" is a Rat? Originally Posted by flh4speed

One "trend" I've noticed is quite a few of the ratrod style cars are going through major renovations so they're becoming more pleasing to the eye. I've always been "middle of the road" as far as rats go because among them i've seen some very well thought out ideas and cars but I still like 'em painted-shiny or not. I've also seen some really scary welding & engineering (there's no shame in asking for help) please keep them safe. Oh yeah, bitchin car!Last edited by rc57; 07-05-2008 at 05:15 PM. Reason: add pic

Dude, you didn't have to go there at all. You are the one that said "minus rat". Take a deep breath and be nice here. You can be ugly at the other place. I am a native Texan and have lived in Austin since 1980 and until this year never heard of the "South Austin Speed Shop" or the HAMB. I think I have too many degrees for that place. I look there but I won't tell. Originally Posted by flh4speed
