Custom, Roth style, one-off, home-built, frankenstein hot rods...lets see them!

This is cool Jose85.

I could image a '58 Edsel grill stuffed in between the headlight pods.

 

Great subject and pictures !

 

If im not mistaken, the original color was red??

 

I like the look of this one!



Any more pic of it?


How did I make the picture so big?

What a great thread and some cool cars. This one has been on the HAMB before, but it fits this thread. It was built from a 38 dodge truck, 56 new yorker 4 door rear section narrowed 15 inches, 51 buick 4 door dash narrowed 12 inches, and a modified 38 ford frame. Some early versions shots and now with a little more horsepower.

 

Here's one of the front...apparently the front was still a work in progress!

 

Wait a second, that's this?

It's been done years ago.

 

Ghost28, first time I've seen that rod...just wow!

 

Did you not wake up this morning thinking this was another opportunity to mess up some bad guy's day? I did. Deputy United States Marshal Raylan Givens

 

That looks really sharp, what is it?

Yep, same car. I never did get a picture of it after it was all pretty. Every time I saw it, I didn't have the camera with me. The pictures I have are from the Hunnert Car Pile-Up back in 2005.

 

Pontiac Tempest I believe.

 

Here's a few pics of mine I'm building. A link to my build thread is in my signature.

 

whoops

 

This thread rocks. Keep em coming.

 

I used to think about using an X-19 Fiat body as a start, front engine with a blower, tires outside the body

 

These were at the Syr. Nats a few years ago. The Skull is a local car.

 

Maybe someone can buy this and help it be reborn, currently stuck between two worlds...

Here are several more.
Thanks for the kind words regarding my bizarro creations.

 

thats cool looking, and one heck of a huge shop

 

If I had the skills I'd build something like this for sure:

 

Christmas card bubble bellybutton idea a few years back

 

Got any pictures?

 

Whoa, I think I kinda like that thing. Ad is gone.

 

Saw this one at the local Denver show in November.

 

That sure would be an interesting build. i can see the apache hood and lights, but not much left from the apache after that.

with the mid engine would you go with an air cooled vw engine with transaxle. or try to run a radiator up front and build some sweet v-8?

 

this is the idea for my falcon parts car. T bucket frame, take sheet metal from rear and front and put them together, make a grill similar in shape, put the 200 six with three speed trans and falcon rear in it, molded headlights, etc. figured why not since its going to be stripped out and has a bad unibody frame.

Had a similar plan for a 61 comet with falcon nose. I will post a pic after I am done moving.

I have a couple renderings I need to post. I'm really considering making one of these my next project.
