i have been collecting parts here and there to build one of these open engine "ugly" trucks just for the fun of it. All cast off parts, 48 F1 cab with the floor already raised and the firewall cut out from another builder's abandoned project, a beer keg, bed from F1 truck #1, 64 C10 chassis, 350 / th350 with a tunnel ram and dual 4s, oval track wide steel wheels, etc..
Since it will be a 48 F1 build it will have to be posted here too LOL! Cant wait to hear the responses to that one.

Sometimes I think people do things just to offend other people sensibilities, like walking around with your pants below you butt, showing your underwear.

Oh come on guys. You don't like it when other people at shows cut your trucks down. And you don't do it to people here that you might know. Ya some of this may not be your taste, but it is someone's taste. Not my taste either but very creative for sure. But I am not a rat rod guy either.

At a local diner I witnessed they asked a man to leave for wearing a tank top shirt but they
had a customer at the counter with large holes and gauges on each side of his nose. I would of rather seen the arm pits than the inside of a guys nasal passage. Maybe he owns one of those cars.
