    .....the equipment ooperator was a co-worker. I had drove one of those sprayers all day myself. I know what he was thinking "how is that dickhead home from work already?" ha ha ha


    Shaggy....not yet...but I might have to to build my new garage addition on my house. I am coming up short...as always...

    the vicky isn't coming along at all....because this car is now sitting right next to it in the garage....which is why I need another garage.

    Larry, you are right, but I don't have anywhere to carry the cooler in this car.

    I have to be honest Aaron, I was a little bummed out at the video. I thought you were driving to the burger stand. That would have been rad. Then I could have drooled at the punk and the double cheese combo at the same time.

    Man! What an awesome ride that was! Thanx!

    Wish we had roads like that here in So Cal. We did....about 70 years ago!

    By reading the posts, I can now assume that 'wild-DONK-looking-tractor-thing' you passed, was some kinda "sprayer". I've never seen anything like that in my life!
     
  17. Two things Aaron:

    1) You are more than welcome to keep that ugly and stupid show rod in my garage if you need room. You know... Since nobody really drives show rods anyway.
    2) Have you ever taken it through a drive through yet?

    Hehe... Come to think of it, that would mak a great photo op. You and the punk sitting at a classic drive in and the hot roller skate waitress is standing there totally confused :)
     
  18. very damn cool indeed! thanks for the ride!

    large one in the middle, the "no blind spots" thing appears pretty bitchin!

  21. Christ! That top lift motor sounds like my blender on the "Frappe" setting. You think the "Show Car" driving public wants to hear that every time they make a run for groceries? What were you thinking man?

    On the other hand you are very considerate to allow right of way to those inbound vans carrying your farm workers as you provide a wake up call to your late sleeping neighbors.

    Showrod = form over function. What better way to be different than with form and function.

    Most show rods only have a shelf life of a couple years. So why not design them to drive when the new wears off. Love the video!

    It looked great sitting under the lights at the Winnipeg World of Wheels. It looks FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC through the windshield as it runs down the road! Thanks for sharing!
