It is an interesting aesthetic.

One wire alternators are lazy.

Fight me.

That’s all you can find to say about this vehicle? Go fight yourself.

It is twice as much work to use two.

I’d like to see a tidier engine compartment, but it’s a clever presentation and probably worth what he’s asking for it.

When my car looks like that, my next step is usually primer, not clear coat.

Not a bad price. Some more cash, cleaning, and a new paint job will make it awesome.

I dunno man that engine bay looks pretty tidy.

When my car looks like that I ask, “Who attacked my car with a grinder!”

Those “effects” totally look like blended body filler, right?

I kinda like this other than the finish and the steering wheel.

And is that a bottle opener on the grille? Sweet!

But it seems to me that the rat rod aesthetic is to build your own, not drive someone else’s work.

It looks like a giant slice of summer sausage.

Nope, just the first nit I wish to pick

Is that the fuel cap behind the door in the bed? Terrible place for it. And you can’t slide stuff across without hitting it, thanks to how the door panel is raised. Yeah, I suppose this is supposed to be form over function , except for that puzzling eyesore of a battery box. I’m not sure I really understand what they were going for here.

If you’re gonna make a truck you need a usable bed for fuck’s sake!

Yes, yes it does.

This is just someone’s attempt at creating patina. Done quite poorly too.

I think not as tidy as the rest, but like I said: I think the price is fair. Nice truck.

They must have thrown practicality out the window a long time ago, and just wanted some sort of truck- like aesthetic. But it’s just not cohesive. Every time I think I start to grasp it, something else sticks out like a sore thumb.

Oh, and that circle next to the (fuel?) door looks like an abandoned hole-saw attempt. Measure once, cut twice!

This is bad and they should feel bad. I hate this manufacturer rat rod garbage.

Galvanized corrugated steel signs. What is this a Chipotle?

And several layers of paint.

Both times, I already knew the answer, me. My Charger has been repainted like 6 times, twice by me. I have seen this look before, after I get a bit aggressive with the orbital sander.

I guarantee they don’t feel even a little bad.

Also they painted it like 4 times, ground off a bunch of it then painted it one more time. Efficiency they does not has it.
