Re: Show me your ratty hot rods!!!!

My paint is old and is starting to get that nice patina to it....The chrome is all bright and shiny though....



It's got plenty of go with a balanced 400SBC, ceramic coat headers, and a big Holley soup can on top...



And I went for that homemade look on the spare tire carrier....

Seriously yes!! When i buy my set of tires i will be looking for the simplest and biggest white lettering on the side wall. Almost thinking i want hoosier rotating my rims just for the look it gives

Even lifted trucks have that problem draggin. you could do as we did on my 4x4 K5, and run the pipes and inside the frame rails and mufflers rotated about 40 degrees or whatever so as much was in the frame rails as could fit, as for the long tubes.... get custom bent i guess or just drop the truck till they flatten out and re weld up the cracks!!

Re: Show me your ratty hot rods!!!!

lol i had that same type pedal in my 2000 chevy, until one day it got caught on my floor mats and caused me to run a redlight! It was soon tossed out the window.

It aint all that great of shape, it's been in a Michigan field for about 15 years. It'll do until I get a southwestern body and paint it up the same as my current scheme - orange interior, orange hood, flat black everything else...
