    You can bet that, if Foose's name is on it, there will be little "rat" in the rat rod. It will be "spectacular" (a phrase from Seinfield show).

    Getting "it" feels good don't it?



    BTW, at SEMA 2004 Ford had an F150 in their booth that Jimmy Shine did up for them. Had the silver paint scotch-brited to dull it down, some red spoked wheels, and little stack looking deals on the hood. It had his iron cross decals on the doors. If you go to his site, click the internal link to "customs" you'll see a pic of it; http://jimmyshine.com/

    really whats the diff. the problem is the more people hate something the more attetion it gets. well if foose is building one that just shows hes got class and hes not out campaigning how much he hates them is even better. he gets it im sure

    A prefab 'faux' Ratrod! Now that's amusing!!! Kind of like spending a bunch of money for designer jeans that are already ripped.

    Honestly I think you people would worship a human dung pile dropped on a skateboard if Foose did it. OK OK it wouldn't stink though ...............

    Can anybody say "OVERDONE"? I mean damn ............


    Yeah I had bad day ................

    Now correct me if im wrong, but most people buy a new car to have it all shiny and new. Not to have it look like someone who can only paint with a rattle-can(Me) wandered out and quick covered the farm-truck. I think the only thing on this whole truck that looks decent is the rims, and their not spectacular. Also, would Foose cover the warrentee, or would Ford? "Yes, excuse me, my 12-spoke rim seems to have shattered. would you happen to have an extra?" Comeon Parts-guy, turn that one up

    He also gets a really big check to sell things that make money. Weather it's a Rod, classic, or a Rat. He is known for all his designs, and ideas.
    i was thinking out loud again
