This Rod Project Raised A Few Eyebrows

....when I pulled my trailer through the city loaded with this - a Ford Model T frame with a casket mounted on it.

A younger acquaintance got a wild notion to build something similar to Dragula, Grandpa Munster's car, then abandoned the project after realizing how flimsy T frames are.

The casket was in a warehouse that flooded, causing the bottom to rust out, rendering it unsuitable for its intended purpose. The repair would present no challenge for a good body man, if'n he ain't superstitious.

I had to put it in the storage yard, after the wife threatened dire consequences if the casket appeared at the house. I think I'll just slide it into my '63 Bonneville ambulance/hearse as an added attraction.

 

A lot of folks are just dying to get one of those...

 

"A lot of folks are just dying to get one of those..."

very saturday mourning cartoony. but funny nonetheless!

 

you can say that again .... and again!

 

That is cooool!!! here's a shot of one that an old buddy of mine has (and its for sale)....I thought he had better pics of this but this is all he has online....

 

^ wtf?

 

With enough detailing that could win the AMBR!

 

damned ohioans

 

LOL...that coffin car pic I posted, according to my buddy, was one of Elviras appearance or show cars.....

 

Jim, you of course were smiling when you typed that?

 

whats in the water down there?

'cause i want some!

 

Turn the casket into a trailer... ice chest in one end, luggage in the other. Should be a fun one to tote along.

 

hey, i resemble that remark

 

Now that's funny!
Sad but probably true. If someone said it started as a 1930 Ford roadster and after 1,000 body modifications this is what it looks like now the judges would have to give you enough points to win.
Say that some rich recluse commissioned it and $2million was spent on modifications and the judges will have to give it the title. But, can't forget some display too. Hmm.....Like maybe a roulette wheel.

 

Uh.......... there is no "good" picture of that one.

 

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha second that

 

The even funnier image is picturing yourself actually hauling down the road in that thing...sittin' all perched up with goggles on LOL

And I'm a thinking it will be for sale for a long time!!!
...Roach.

 

its been several minutes and im still dying laghing

 

i'm dying to forget this one...

 

I always kinda wanted to build a coffin go-kart

 

There is nothing cool about this

 

I thought the broad was supposed to be airbrushed on the continental kit?

 

You sure that thing was never used???
I see a couple Orbs in the pic HMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!

 

<~~~~~ slaps knee

 

PERFECT!

 

Breaking news!
Florida guys get bumped to #2!

 

How can I get this image out of my head?

 

somebody had a vision to build a cool car, and thought long and hard , spent tons of time and money ,and never had any idea that only small kids would find it remotly cool.. but hell it got him out of the house & into the garage so it cant be all that bad

 

Me, too!
