Man I'm posting a lot today! Had to sit and wait for the furnace repairman… he finally came and fixed the POS - I was freezing…



I've always thought how much fun it would be to find some old car in a field and drag the thing home and make a project out of it… EYE DEE HO might just be the perfect place to find such a thing! But first I have a fairly large amount of time I'm going to have to devote to building a house project… then moving - then getting the new shed all squared away -- and I seem to have picked up another track car that needs some seat time as well as getting the Mustang back to a reliable state…. But a rat rod would be the perfect first project once things settle down a bit.

Wrong tires.:badidea:




Wrong tires and wrong color.

:lol:

Both of those make me puke….



I'll get a shot of the '40 I'm thinking of next time I see it.



I'd probably rather actually do a '37 -- but after seeing the way this guy did the '40 -- it's pretty right on. Ordinarily I wouldn't look twice at a '40 Ford - but there's something about the way this pick up looks that's just Sun Valley perfect.

It's not rat rodded as much as it is -- "worn" like a good old pair of jeans… so it looks solid and the body is perfect - but he did the patina paint - and the faded door advertising.. and it sits low with poverty caps but then you look and it has some tire under it.

BTW -- Some nasty ass gold colored hot rods might be coming to market from the rumors I'm hearing. Will be interesting to see what they'd bring - and my guess is - not much. But what do I know.

Greg,

That will be interesting on how those gold(en) oldie$ do if sold.

Wrong tires...good patina.

Take this color -- mat it out… ditch the wheels for steelies and dog dish… Give the wheels some color… Maybe cut the lid just a little…. Faded brushed out signage -- Stella in the passenger side … Mountain bike in the back

........and Hemi under the hood......might as make another confrontational (Oops, meant conversation) piece out of it. The lines on those trucks are some of the best IMO. :D

That's the bomb in my book. Like it Love it and want to build it also.

$$$GW$$$

I know I'm late to the paint party, but that painter can spray. Looks great and I like the color... getting the Vibe now. I can't wait to see the finish product.
