I've got to agree with Jim 100%, just because they used a Toyota in the video doesn't mean that only a Toyota is a "Hillbilly Deluxe". I'm a born and bred West Virginia hillbilly, and my slightly customized 1990 Ford F350 4x4 dually is my "Hillbilly Deluxe", even with it's rusted front fender and hillbilly rust repair, DUCT TAPE! Really though, back to the serious side, up here in the states (since I noticed you're from the land down under Aaron) I've seen all different types of trucks that have "Hillbilly Deluxe" on the bug shield or back window or across the top of the windshield, I've even seen some big rigs named "Hillbilly Deluxe"!

Also, I don't know how I missed this CBP before, but I like it! I don't have a definite entry as of yet, mainly because I have tons of others that probably won't get finished for other CBPs , but I just might have come up with something for this one, maybe even go through some of my old trucking songs and get a big rig in the mix!

There ya go!....maybe ....mmmm...."Teddy bears answer"?....

Michael, the whole point of this CBP is to build YOUR vision of the car from the song, not what everybody else thinks it should be. You hear "Low Rider" on the radio, you see a '62 T-Bird slammed into the weeds, Fine with me! That's what you build! The idea of this CBP is to share YOUR vision of the song, no matter what anyone else says.

By the way, I like the Baby Moons and Gangster Whites too.

x2 on all points.

Nick, it's gorgeous so far. But then, I've come to expect that from your builds. I like my hot rods nice and shiny.

Ram Rod is Finished.

Hey, little dolly with the blue jeans on
I wanna ramrod with you honey, till half-past dawn
Let your hair down sugar and pick up this beat
Come on and meet me tonight down on Bluebird Street
I've been working all week, I'm up to my neck in hock
Come Saturday night I let my ramrod rock
She's a hot stepping hemi with a four on the floor
She's a roadrunner engine in a '32 Ford
Late at night when I'm dead on the line
I swear I think of your pretty face when I let her unwind
Well look over yonder see them city lights
Come on little dolly 'n' go ramroddin' tonight
Come on, come on, come on little baby
Come on, come on let's shake it tonight
Come on, come, come on little sugar
Dance with your daddy and we'll go ramroddin' tonight
Hey, little dolly won't you say you will
Meet me tonight up on top of the hill
Well just a few miles cross the county line
There's a cute little chapel nestled down in the pines
Say you'll be mine little girl I'll put my foot to the floor
Give me the word now sugar, we'll go ramroddin' forever more

She's a beauty, Nick! I'm glad to see that this CBP hasn't been forgotten. One I get a couple of my other CBP commitments finished, I plan to do up some more for this'n too.

[Jantrix]

That looks great Nick! One to be proud of.

Jim, I have another in the planning stages.

[Nick Winter]

I didn't forget just been busy and slow at the same time, haha

Thanks guys.

[CorvairJim]

Jim, I have another in the planning stages.

Just let me know when you're ready to pull the trigger, Rob, and I'll add your new one to the list.

[Gothic Kustomz]

WOW! is this still alive and going,been awhile for me, but I just couldn't leave the build alone, just a minor flair job, wheels look better under it this way, yeah still in the rough stage, but you get the idea...

Glad to see you still at it Michael. I'm waiting to be amazed.

[CorvairJim]

I check back on this every so often to see if there's still any interest in it. I'm glad to see you're still pluggin' away at your Mustang, Michael! Looks like we're soon to see some "Black Sunshine" in this thread!
