    Question BilletProof carshow vehicles & people

     



    l went to the BilletProof show in centralia washington last year. the club that puts on BilletProof has shows all over and l see a trend; all the other sites that hate rat rods seem to go to this show and really are hyped about it. l have been to 8 different "rod" sites to gather this info.

    --------------HERE IS THE QUESTION:--------------------------

    how can they hate/dislike rat rods and tout this as the premier hot rod show when a lot of the rods look like rats????

    on these web sites people are showing pics of there traditional rods parked next to other rods and most of 'em look like the rats they don't like

    not a fact, just my view of the world, others may vary, no warranty, no returns, no refunds and not slamming any others sites or persons opinion.

    our rodding world would be real boring if we all drove 80's hondas, 55-57 chevys or old fords.

    Me, l like everything from ratty model A's to million+ dollar rides, dragsters, circle track and everything in between.

    typed BilletProof in search engine and pics l got---

    I think the rub comes when "they" say "they" are doing it like it was done "back in the day". Now I ain't quite that old but, I've never known anyone who WANTED a rustycar with ugly rot and welds showing! Like you, it's just my opinion and while I can appreciate the creativity! I can't stomach the insane rooflines and some of the "crazy engineering"...
