Welcome from Texas, Mauro! I have always been intrigued by the cars in Argentina. I've read articles about some great US cars that were made there that most people in the US never new existed. Your pics didn't load. No worries everyone has trouble at first till they get the hang of it. Is it a D-100 van? There is a recent van thread if you do a search. Has some old D-100's in it. Word of advice, use of the term "rat rod" around here offends some folks. We just call them hot rods.
No soy Argentino, pero estuve dos anos en Cordoba. Soy hincha de River y Talleres! I'm just a pasty white guy from Minnesota, but Argentina was awesome! I still drink my CBSe mate everyday! I really miss the people, the Tatin Triple alfajores and sitting down outside the kioscos enjoying a cold Coca chica on a hot day!
now im working so i dont have photos of both only of the RT the d100 as you now like sweptline was made from 1971 to 1981 when chrysler was sold to vw about the rat rods, im sorry if the therm offends it wasn´t my intention, i was trying to separete the way of building because here in argentina restoring or hot roddin is very very expensive, so we coul rat to the car made cheapper and with that style so post war but im here i will them hot rods lackluster!! the tatin are in extintion ajajaj im glad you drink Mate!! thats means you dont think its a kind of drug jajajaj
