Thread: question about a 30's rat rod

Dave, If you dont have anything positive to contribute to this rat section, then why do you feel the need to post here? It would probably piss me off to if I had all that high $$ crap in my car and the people walk right past it to check out the cool rat. You act like making a car stop is some kind of magical acomplishment that only shiney paint and willwood brakes can achieve. Im shure in your minde, a touch of maturity and common sense only happens when you are well in to your sixties.

Look up, because what Dave said just zoomed about 10 feet over your head. I think you should read Dave's post again, because nothing you said has any relevance to what he said.

- Nothing positive to contribute? He said that a car should steer, stop and handle safely. Dang. Pardon him for being logical.

- Where was there a mention that a car had to be shiny and have high $$ brakes to be safe? Dave has Wilwoods, but he doesn't care if you have transplanted Yugo brakes - as long as the car stops. And why should he care? Because he has to share the road with you, and because all hot rodders have to live with the consequences of the few idiots that foul up.

- I don't care if someone walks past my car to see a rat - or to look at a Ferrari, and I'll guaran-freaking-tee you that Dave doesn't either. Since you would "probably be pissed" if someone bypassed your car for a rat, that pretty much puts you in the poser category, doesn't it?

- Your interpretation of Dave's comment on maturity tells me a lot about yours than it does his.

As Jack said, there was nothing negative towards rats in my post. What I said reflects my thoughts towards all cars. Have fun with your rats, it doesn't matter to me at all what you build..... As for the rest of your comments, oh well... Think whatever you want...
