Features Roadster Pickup........picture thread

saw this in Folsom, CA

 

Mine after a engine bay color switch up, looks way better. JW

 

Gotta' love a red RPU!

 

Affirmed!

 

I could do without the tombstone tail lights, but yeah.

 

"Bub" Johnsons' RIP rpu is a long time Portland area fixture, and even though I'm not much of a whitewall/hubcap kind of guy, this thing is near perfection in my eyes.

 

Bump

 

Put some finishing touches on my RPU since I last posted in January. This one is for sale in the classifieds, btw...

 

Gotta keep this one going...here's some more pictures of mine

 

My work in progress

 

Nice Craig, is that Shellville airport with the warbirds ?

 

Yes it is...I was on my way home from the Nor Cal Knockout in Vallejo a couple of years ago, and whipped in there since the gate was open. There are some really cool old warbirds there.

 

Rick Bones' Lobeck built RPU

 

My banger powered 29.

 

That is really nice. Too many people don't know when a build is done. Well, they are never really done but after this point it's easier make things worse than to make things better.

 

I would put the hood shelves on it so the hood gap at the bottom closes up, but other than that, it's a cool little RPU.

 

Here is one I just finished. Real fun with the 5 speed. Wife thinks I should sell it, not sure I want to.

 

Sell it? What does she know

 

The bottom line!
Well, that and that other thing.

 

Maybe some day.....but then I would have a finished hot rod.....and I would probably get teased about that!

 

I love these two little pick ups. They were at the VHRA event at Pendine Sands in Wales, UK. These photos are from 2016. They look good, sound mint, and go like f*ck. What more do you want?

 

I've seen one of those RPU's before!

 

She thinks I have too many hotrods.

 

I thought that was your old truck, Dean, but it looks a little rougher than when you had it...

 

Tell her that’s like saying she has too many shoes or dresses

 

Deans old RPU still the one for me

 

Ya think!!!

 

The paint on the red one looks like crap, I don't think it will buff out.

 

Blueone tell me how this works at your house

More RPU photos please !! JW
