rusty car owners please stand up

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by tankwilson, Nov 25, 2006.

  1. Ya know... Some of these cars I see look like someone is just out to purposly build the shittiest lookintg car they can, add some skulls and shit to it and say "look at me! I have a rat rod!"

    Whatever.. they're retarded...

    As for the rust? Well.. I live in Detroit (rust belt) and the cars I find can have quite a bit of rust around here. My 70 Dodge has some rust. Bad enough that Hot Rod magazine would call it a total loss and junk it. People in my area say "holy shit" and "I can't believe how great of shape this car is in!" Yes.. It's an original Michigan car from the lil' old lady original owner. Sometimes I like to to do mild mods to my cars while still keeping some of th ehistory of the car intact. Even if it means the rust and the blatant screwed in side molding fix (hehe). While being anything close to a religious man, I even deceided to keep the palm tucked in the headliner from a Psalm Sunday many years ago. It's the history of the car ya know? It's good karma :)

    But I do think this other guy's tryin' too hard to be cool or something (shrug). Whatever.. It makes him happy.

    thats exactly what I meant too, seems like a lot of folks just get them for that reason. cool tattoos are cool. stupid ones are fun to laugh at. But It seems like over the last 10 years fully-sleeved heavily tattooed is more accepted now. Thats all you see on stuff like MTV etc.
    Writing "fuck off" on the back of your car is asking to be messed with..

    In my neck of the woods we concider rat rod to be synonymous with poor engineering, poor execution and poor quality. Paint or no paint is up to you. And yeah it's a kick in the gut when someone mislabels your car as a rat rod. Especialy when you come from somewhere with rust problems and you've spent countless hours putting stability back into the body of your ride. But you know what, it's all based off opinion, geography and understanding of history. If it offends you, be a man, step up and tell them why your shit shouldn't be labeled as such. I know it's weird to imagine, but mom was right. Communication works.


    As for the "fuck off." I would agree that it's tactless and a cheap and I wouldn't want my younger siblings it. And I know for sure my Grand-dad would be ashamed to see hot rodding coming down to that level.

    But it's your car and you're the best person to judge it, so who cares what anyone else has to say about it?

    Tattoos are traditional.....if you are a GI or an ex GI....that served in the orient....and got it while you were drunk. Also traditional if you got it in jail.

    Tattooing in the USA is a new artform, not a traditional one. It may become traditional after a few decades of the Discovery Channel.

    I just calls em as I sees em!

    So what have I been practicing the last 30 years.I got started from my moms first cousin.I know second and third generation tattooists.The artform is not new.The discovery channel is whats wrong with tattooing.If tattoos and hotrodding were made illegal tomorrow we would find out who the real tattooists and hot rodders are.I got heavily tattooed and drive a rat because it so easily offends the collective you.Did you know that zoottattooz spelled backwards is zoottattooz[/QUOTE]

    Why do you want to offend?
     
  13. Excuse me, but my natural tendency to try to make sense of things and tie this thread together leads me to ask this: Can tattooing an acne scar make one look like rust? That would be the ultimate RatRod™ accessory.

    Maybe you should rename this thread: Rusty face owners, Stand Up!

    When a herd of sheep walk by the big bad wolf,I have to be that black sheep standing to the side ,flipping off the whole show.If no one takes that position then the herd is lost to the wolf.I guess I should of said the collective ewe.

    Man you crack me up!
     
  16. Here's a news flash, city boy. When the wolf see the lone sheep, away from the herd, he eats THAT sheep. Upraised finger, or not. But the sheep dies with dignity, no?

    All the sheep are on their way to die.And yes to stand up to the wolf no matter the out come is the only way I'm wired.It's brought me this 56 years.
    I think what is being discussed is why someone would drive a rat and have offensive slogans on it .Maybe it isn't that deep and he's just an ''idjut.''
