Reliable Rat
Sorry gang,my camera was on the blink when I saw this but it impressed me as an old school style with modern components.So I'l describe the truck and get some input because I would love to have one something like it.
Guy had a Toyota pickup that he had wrecked.He found a cab for a 37 Ford that was admittedly rough.He took the body off the toy and redid the body mounts.He now has a reliable,rat with modern engineering and tech that used the original concept of using what he had to build a cool reliable cruiser that gets 30 mpg,has r&p,auto,will smoke the tires and he ain't afraid to get the paint scratched.He's driving the crap outta it and it stays surrounded at cruises and shows. It's a rat,it has a Benz grille,undercoating for paint,a wood bed,an ammo box toolbox on the bed and decent tires and wheels.He told me he has 4 months spare time and 8 bens in it. Would you cruise something like that?I'll try to ctach him at another cruise and get pics.
