It's actually kinda cool from a rat-rod standpoint.

The bottle of Jägermeister is priceless

back in the day the lisence plate was about the most commonly used material to patch old rusted out floors and trunks for cars from the 40's and 50's//stopsigns were a close second tho

You're showing your age today.

Mike J · 02-25-2010, 09:41 AM

im a lefty but I dont think Im that lucky!! I see 2 NM plates!!

culp7 · 02-25-2010, 08:44 PM

$850 to buy it now ain't bad!

Leviticus · 02-25-2010, 09:04 PM

The funny part is that floor probably cost more than a complete weld in replacement, unless he already had the plate collection lol. People pay big bucks for classic plates out here in Cali and make em wall hangers.

Cool floor though.

Leviticus · 02-25-2010, 09:07 PM

Well, after looking at the pic again, I realized they aren't classic plates.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 02-25-2010, 09:24 PM

Kinda neat...

Dark Knight · 02-26-2010, 12:09 AM

He's got his engine sizes wrong. It's a 250. The fuel pump is in front of the motor mount. I kinda like the rat rod theme. It's different. I'd roll it. Maybe...

**fine69** · 02-26-2010, 12:28 AM

And no title sucks. North Carolina has titles for vehicles. Not bill of sale.

Other than that i don't honestly think its a bad buy.....

The sad thing is that I have used license plates to patch holes before in one of our yard truck!
