I have enough trouble trying to make my truck drivable. I just don't understand why anyone would do this.

But, hey, it's a free country... at least for another month.

I noticed it there. But I just kept right on walking. It is set up as a gasser dragster.

I don't believe NHRA allows copper fuel plumbing, for good reasons.

What a waste of a jailbar. The owner should be put behind real jailbars!

It's bad enough on the outside, but what's more important is what is in the inside. I've never seen a rat rod I'd want to ride in or have driven toward me on the open road.

Sometimes you just have to wonder what goes on it some peoples heads. It looks like a terrible waste of some decent metal.

I love the tail lights. Have used them on several builds. Them and early stang lights work well.

Can you imagine if some country dude with a big chew of tobacco in his mouth walk up to that thing at a car show and use those spittoons for their intended purpose.

But like somebody else said, more power to him if he can sell that to some rich dude with no common sense.

I seldom weigh in on something where I can not make a positive comment. The craftsmanship looks to be nice but the end result product, IMHO, is a downright ugly POS.
A waste of good components.
