    All Hallows, skulls, and stuff

     



    I have American Racing Smoothies on my "Rot Rod" ghoulish '57 f100.

    Problem was, I didn't want the center caps. So I am running them open, and they look like normal "chrome reverse" EXCEPT for having two bolt patterns drilled.

    I found something to fill the holes!!!!

    At a party supply store, in their Halloween section, are these little trinket rings with a bloody skull in an enamel finish. The rings are metal or some sort, and I washed one a couple of times to see if it would hold up.

    I will cut the ring band, open it flat and braze it from the inside of the wheel. I will post pictures one day if I can ever afford a camera.

    I have "BHRS"...Broke Hot Rodder Syndrome. All things "not car" are put-off 'till later.

    not "rat rod"

     



    ROT ROD

    Think...what if Herman Munster had a pickup truck?

    "George Barris style" meets "The Addams Family"

    it would be a "ROT ROD"
