PeterMack Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I saw that truck in Peoria. I didn't even bother taking a picture of it. To each his own, but that thing is ugly! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 They should rat rod the more deserving of autos.... the foreign ones fit the description best and we would appreciate our era be left unmolested by the millenniums to fu@k up since they do that the best of all previous generations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyT Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Patina belongs on rat rods! I spent too many hours of my youth repairing rust and hand rubbing lacquer to make it shiny to like patina! I would prefer the high binder as a single axle tractor with daytons and a 318 Detroit with a 4 by4 or 13 speed! I actually like the little pickup,looks factory! Like the wheels, hope it's not an automatic, but the majority of street rods are! There was an article recently in Street Rodder a well known painter devoted the whole article showing how to f up a clean 57 Chevy by enhancing its patina! Instead of wet sanding it down to 1000 grit and putting a nice shiny paint job on it! Just my opinion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyT Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Back to the high binder p.u, I believe it should have " period" mirrors off the door hinges or rounded west coasters ( like the mack ones,only plain!) With custom brackets putting them closer to the cab! One thing the builder did right was leave the cab and fenders stock,but the late model mirrors mess up the "look."

BillyT Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 High binder, that is exactly what I mean! Like the viser as well! The engine doesn't matter,I've driven a lot of Detroit's, just like the sound! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
