Loud, Rude, and Obnoxious. I need ideas
I figure I should ask here before I get too far into the project. I need ideas and if someone wants to PS this I would be grateful. this will take me about 5 or 10 years to complete the way I figure it. maybe more, maybe less.
it is a 67 Chevy (may end up GMC, I dunno yet) short step small window here's what I have so far. flat black with red scallops on the doors and hood. red stripe on the hood side coming back to include the bed rails. chrome dish slots and some meaty shoes. 6 or 8" front and 10" rears some kind of late 60s interior. must have a shoulder high beer tap shifter for the 4 speed (NP A833 overdrive) 68 Caddy 472. that WILL stay in the plans. side pipes ? basically this will be an "in your face, what are you gonna do about it?" theme which may end up being labeled Loud, Rude, and Obnoxious. it will most likely end up being my mid-life crisis. car shows? maybe. mostly just cruise around scaring kids and women while making other gear heads grin in acknowledgment saying to themselves "yeah, I get it". any ideas or changes? feel free to join in, pass the pipe, whatever.

Re: Loud, Rude, and Obnoxious. I need ideas
Im not big on the red scallops, but I'm diggin the rest of it. Instead of side pipes though, I would look into some kind of Zoomies stickin out the sides, kind-of like the Cherry Bomb Dodge.

Re: Loud, Rude, and Obnoxious. I need ideas
Headers with exhuast cut outs for the LOUD!
Use Flourescent red and do the wheels too.

Bolt some glasspacks straight to your headers, and go with the flamethrowers like special K mentioned! Fun Fun

Re: Loud, Rude, and Obnoxious. I need ideas
Those tri-rib Radirs on the Dodge would look great too, 8" and 10" wide 15's with a nice lip to give em the deep dish look.
Tuck & roll interior in black/red or black/white could work. A blower on the Cad would be fun too.

Re: Loud, Rude, and Obnoxious. I need ideas
Oh, a huffer sticking out the hood would definitely fit the bill. :O
You could also leave the inner fenders out and run some fenderwell headers. ![]() ![]()

Re: Loud, Rude, and Obnoxious. I need ideas
I say go for it! I'm running straight pipes with a 454 and dropped about 4 inches. It drives some of the old timers in my car club crazy and some are in love with it.
I say to each his on. Only one rule though....please do not call it a "rat rod" Good luck. |

Nothing like the sounds coming from a detroit locker racheting around a turn in a parking lot

Re: Loud, Rude, and Obnoxious. I need ideas
I'm down with the tuck n roll seat and beer tap shifter. I also like the idea of louvers, side pipes (or lake pipes). A big 'ol Impala steering wheel would be cool too.

Re: Loud, Rude, and Obnoxious. I need ideas
hey now I have a Harley and I can tell you right now damn near every drunk redneck driving by my house all hours of the night is louder than my Harley. I live out in the country and do not have emissions tests so you can pretty much run just straight pipes and no one will say anything.
