Ugliest truck contest
Last year I went to the Jefferson Wisconsin spring swap meet and saw what I thought had to be the ugliest truck I have ever seen. Last year the guy had a "For Sale" sign on it with a price of something like $22K. At the time I didn't have a camera to take pictures of it. It was back again this year and I had my newest toy with me, or as I tell the IRS, my new business tool, a cell phone with camera so I was able to snap some pictures of it. This guy put a lot of work into this thing but it just doesn't do it for me.
The is a cab and pieces of hood from a '51 or '52 Ford truck in there:
Here's the trailer he pulls behind:

Actually that thing has some potential to be pretty cool if the guy would get rid of the door ***** and do a little cosmetic work. So this is what they really mean by rat rod??? I would be tempted to build something like that for the fun of it. I think it would really be cool if it kicked everything on the street.

That thing is FUGLY! 
He must have a louver die, though. The door ***** are kinda cool.
This is one of those trucks you like to see and get ideas off of. I would just never think to put all those ideas on the same truck!

Bob if you took those pictures with a cell phone camera I'm totally impressed. My Motorola Razor doesn't do that good.

I agree with dave...although not realy my taste, it seems that the thing was built to display artistic interpretation rather than a total cool factor....some neat ideas none the less.
