Ratting Florida style. Love it or hate, you gotta admit- it's "SKANKY". I especially like the shopping cart seats.

Why not??? I thought you guys down under were a lot less anal than that. Hey, if it passes inspection for safety it ought to be allowed on the road. What ever happened to the Mad Max thing? I guess freedom of expression is still alive in the States. At least it's putting up a good fight against the likes of Bush.

Kusto,

I've seen that one on the net, it's got to be a very close 2nd to the one I posted. I would like to see them side by side, especially if I ate something bad and needed to exspell it (man, I have always wanted to use that one)

What a difference a coat of paint can make. The idea is similar tho.

I kinda like this one. Except that Fugly grill.

I thought about pointing that out but I was certain that someone else with a keen eye and a politically correct mind would follow shortly and do that for me. On the other hand I tell my sister what you said about her being a pork chop......LOL

As for driving these things, I don't think that is the builders care or concern, it all about mobile art. I never thought much of Van gogh but look at what his stuff is worth.......

As for the grille on the green stubby, I think it is actually from an IHC KB1 or similar unit.

I like major mods if they are done with using your brain, like bobbytnm's mods on his '49. He's come up with some really brilliant ideas but has been able to keep his truck looking "tasteful", at least IMO.
