    All three together don't have enough weight to snap that chain. Working smarter not harder.

    Why do you assume that? Thick southern accent, the removal process, the way they are dressed........Does that automatically make them rat rodders?

    Don I was thinking the same thing. The droppings and mold gets airborne and it can actualy kill you. If the chain does'nt get you first. Great post though.

    I editted out my post because I realized some time had passed since the cars were extracted, so they probably already cleaned out the rat and mouse dirt.

    I don't think I have ever seen a shed with that much debris just thrown all over the place...........oh wait, my shop looks like that. :eek::D

    Cool find though.

  15. Agreed,just because they are Southern doesn't make them rat rodders! HRP

    Interesting. Probably just like I'd have done it. Just a bunch of guys doin what comes natural.
    Yes, I've seen chains snap. I was a trucker and fork lift operator.

    3 Southern Gentlemen, someone may call them by another name, a tractor, and a long chain, and I bet they could figure a way to get the Devil out of Hell.
     
  18. just because they are from the south dont mean rat rodder we have them here in ohio too

    of the three which one is the biggest money car? is the last one a 32 vicky?
     
  19. the last one is a `30 sedan and not a slant windshield...so it will have a lot of wood

    the first is a mis-match of parts/years
     
  20. come on up to washington state their are plenty of rat rods here!
     
  21. The first one looked like a cabriolet to me. No rear door posts.
     
  22. Didn't notice the guys having an accent. They talk just like everybody else around here.

    X2, that is why I asked someone to just post photos of the cars. Nobody got killed removing them, so just post some photos. Bob

    To me, it looks like 3 or 4 car guys trying to save some vintage tin. Good luck to them.
