But this is an ugly truck thread. How can you have 90% Ford and ugly truck?

 

No more pictures of the beast and critters then -- how would I keep it running?

 

I think Dick needs to eat a Snickers bar, you're just not the same when you're hungry...lol

 

I watched the newer show "Vegas Rat Rods" for the first time. They do some nice work and spend a lot of time on the details. They didn't destroy a perfectly good truck to make their creation rather used bits and pieces from various scrap yards. The end result would not be my choice for Top honors in a car show but they did put a lot of thought and work into it.

 

That would surely eliminate me!

 

You'll be okay Drew, all your pics were on Photo-bucket and no longer can be seen...

 

That's true!

 

That's really too bad too Drew, lots of very good information lost there..

 

I think this bug got squashed...

 

When are the clowns coming out?

 

This jewel was at a local cruise in. I would call it a creative storage of vintage memorabilia rather than ugly. The gentleman that owns it put an old Cadillac drivetrain with the 500 c.i. in it.

 

I have to look at this stuff as art, at least someone's interpretation of art.
Functional transportation, not so much.

 

They are accomplishing their goal of the build

 

Don't laugh - I almost went and looked at that! It was on my local craigslist a while back. It is a 1953 Chevy cab that is chopped, nosed and decked. 1960 T-bird box. 272 Pontiac Inline 6 motor. 2000 S10 chassis. Ad said it needed finishing. I think it was painted to look like a patina finish. Thought that it would benefit from a new paint job. They were asking $5,500.

Agree that some of these have some workmanship into them. I may not always like what was done, but can appreciate the work. This thread is starting to remind me of a decal I saw recently that read: I didn't build it for your approval...

 

more metal mess
