    Its funny but I always think of just what I want before I build a car. Stops one from ending up with a confused POS.

    If it is a 1980 Volvo, I'd call it a mistake. :D

    If it is a 1950 Merc, well, you know what to call it. ;)

    How did you DRENCH those taillights? In blinker fluid?

    Sorry...when I see a small mistake that I didn't make...I must point it out. I think you're building a hot rod - unless the base car is an MG Marina.

    Confused
     
  15. A "Street Rod". Taking the billit off and painting it flat, uh mat doesn't make it traditional. :rolleyes:

    I would guess with your mill and all the body mods it would be a modern day rendition of an early custom. Early customs normally were not all show and no go.

    A picture wouldn't hurt a thing here.

    As to what you call it I had a car we called Ralf once. It was homely as a mud fence but it was fast.

  21. Damn and I thought it was one of this Pacific Islander words.

    I would like to see the car just for grins. But from the description it just has too much going on for me.

    To me they are all Hot Rods. As far as I remember, back in the day the customs didn't have the kind of HP your talking about.

    lol "Da Kine" is the local pidgin equivalent of thingamajig, whatchacallit, jank, etc. "Howley" is spelled haole but pronounced just like you spelled it.
