Sweet, seems like maybe a Texas truck or maybe..... oh nevermind
Is that what you call "Rat Rod" or is that the grey side???

I actually like it ............ although I would put the front clip back on, and reroute the headers/exhaust...... but each their own.

I,m with you Sparky, I kind of like it. I wouldn't pay a bunch for it though. I think it would be fun to tool around in.

Nice. Not in love with the exhaust stacks or the tractor grill but looks like it would be fun to drive.

I think it's just Fugly. And the "Buy it Now price" cracks me up.

Well, I already have a good cab, so.... Since just before back to the Fifties, I have been talking to a truck driver that delivers the steel to my workplace. He has a couple old Chev pickups, and just about everyone in his car club (Frankensteiners CC) has Chev rat rods. I keep thinking to myself without admitting, "keep cutting up those Chevs", lol. They're an odd bunch, entertaining, but odd.

Oh man! I thought I found the ugliest truck at the Jefferson Swap meet but after seeing this ghastly amalgamation I can’t decide which is worse.





I would have to say it’s almost a tie but I think my contribution took a little more skill to build, all be it misplaced skill. Both are a waste of Bonus Built parts.

I have to go wash my eyes out now and take something, maybe Dick has a few extra blue and white pills he can let me have.

Well, at least they didn't chop up a '48-50, that would be sacrilege!

Hmm, for some reason I don't think I wanna ride around too long with the seats... metal tractor seats bolted to the floor with what looks like a couch cushion screwed to the back wall.. I think it you ditched the grill and the headers though and did something using the original front sheetmetal, it would be with looking at.. but its no where near with the BIN price, or even a fraction of it.
