This is no joke. When I am finished building the T, I am going to build a true rat rod, for the sole purpose of selling it on Ebay. It won't be crappy in the safety sense, and will be constructed as sound as possible, but it is going to have all the elements these guys who are paying huge sums of money seem to want.

It will feature a rusty body and a haphazard paint job on the frame and undercarriage, and I am going to use all of the parts I have been saving that are really too ugly to use on any car I want to drive. It is going to be a ground scraper, use some unorodox V8 with homemade intake and exhaust, and generally be as "Mad Max" looking as possible. I figure it will be a great way to clear out some of my leftover parts, and make a few bucks too. I'm thinking Cadillac V8 power maybe.

When I see people paying upwards of $ 12,000 for crap, I figure a good running, safe rat should be very sellable. So, sometime in the future, look for "Project Rodent" to begin.
