Ace-Garageguy Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 No-talent dweeb hack mashup conglomeration of ugly, dorky, and stupid. Pity. That much effort could have produced something worth having. Of course, that would also require a basic understanding of proportion and line...sadly lacking in this horrible mess.
espo Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I guess I'm just to old. I really don't get this Rat Rod thing. I'm not dissing it, just don't get it. In my early years I had a few Hot Rods. I've had a T-Bucket, but it was shinny and went like stink. I have had many sedan fully enclosed type cars which are my personal favorites. I had the good fortune to be of an age when you could go into a dealership and order a car that could turn 13s and below right off the showroom floor. While there was times when I had to put together an old car with what ever I could scrap up and paint it with Krylon flat black spray cans, it still looked good and functioned as an every day driver. I look at Rat Rods as a kind of an expression of one sense of humor or something.
Greg Myers Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) So don't move this post to the "Definition of a rat rod post" thank you? When I saw this car on line i thought it looked better that most and was wondering what others though? Ain't lookin' fer no definition here. Edited March 25, 2014 by Greg Myers

When I saw this car on line i thought it looked better that most and was wondering what others though? Ain't lookin' fer no definition here. It's all rat rod discussion. Same disagreements, same inability to define them, same opinions of them on both sides.
tubbs Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I brought something like this up a while ago and it still stirs emotions up. i have not gone thru this entire post but I don't get them, can appreciate the time and effort, just do not get all that time and effort to make something look like BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH!
Psychographic Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Oh boy, a tribute to a bunch of yuppies pretending to be rednecks for a fake TV show. I think hotrodding has hit a new low.
johnbuzzed Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) The automotive equivalent of this... WTF ??? That looks like one of those e-mails that lull you into a false sense of security until, suddenly, someone with a mask of some sort or something else meant to be frightening pops up, accompanied by a loud snarl or some other noise. Man, that's just freaky. A rat rod is a connecting rod from a 396/400/427/454 Chevy motor. No? Edited March 26, 2014 by johnbuzzed
