WARNING!,Pics may be disturbing to some viewers

Ok guys you asked for them.
I agreed to take 600 off a guys bill for this Rat and now you have been warned...
[IMG][/IMG]

Hokey wrecker boom exhaust, rubber rats screwed all over the place, vulgar sign on back.

Mad Max steel sheet mask covering the front... Note there no headlights
[IMG][/IMG]

It does have a couple of things I like, like the tilt front end but its a hack job and forgive me but I kinda like the early ford rear fenders and the wood bed ain't horrible...
[IMG][/IMG]
[IMG][/IMG]

The strangest thing was when I tilted the front end..... That sure is weird valve covers on that small block Chevy. Uh...wait a minute... thats a Mopar!!!
360 to be exact. Motor does run well though.

What about the neat plaid GMC V6 valvecovers on the hood in the first pictures? They actually look like they are in good condition.

Re: WARNING!,Pics may be disturbing to some viewers

I have seen way worse combos of parts. Since you got rid of the pipes, it is not that bad looking. It has potential. I like the rear fenders too BTW..

Re: WARNING!,Pics may be disturbing to some viewers

Thanks everyone good and bad....lord knows alot of drinking and other stuff was involved when they put this mutt together. I figure it was a few guys that worked at a local junk yard that assembled this freak. But I have a soft spot for mutts.(I have 14 stray dogs and love them all). The mopar motor is an early 70's 360 and runs sweet, got a 12 bolt under it. The wood bed and early ford fenders are different also. Its gonna be a fun project. I don't want a truck that looks like everybody elses........I think you would all agree that I got a good start in that direction.

Straydog.
