Odd, yet strangely loveable.

 

Looks good. I like the big headlight look.

 

The interior sheetmetal work on that car looks very nice. I too like the big headlights, never been a fan of the smaller ones, even the E&J's don't look right to me. Gotta ask, what's the grille off of? Tractor? I like it.

 

it almost looks like it's winking at you.

 

I love that thing. Can't quite put my finger on why, but it's *****en.

I like your, uh, steering...lever, er, grips, er...thing too.

 

It looks like that cuddly alien dog, what's his name?

 

Grille is off of a lasalle firetruck and yes it appears to be winkin at ya because I have the reflector out of one tryin to convert it to halogen bulbs and sockets.

Looks cool. Too bad it won't be ready for Goodguys. Are we taking bets on how long that lowest grille bar lasts?

 

Its comin off I figured I would wear the length off Just like I do with my pants.LOL
No I cuttin it one bar at atime.

I like it dude, different is good!

Pete-

 

That grill is ****ing sweet.

 

Is it hard to drive with that vice grip steering wheel? WOW!

I like the lights!

 

I have got my buyers out lookin for a matching vintage pair so I can put them on and it will be like handlebars and remind me of my bike. All the big guys will see the vise grips and it will surely show up on the discovery channel.
Thanks for the comments.

I like 'em but I think Rocky still holds the size record. but we all know size doesn't matter.

 

lights look killer shoe

real nice work on the floor

 

Love it!

 

Are you building that thing at a Chrysler dealership?? Looks good! Got any pictures of the back of the body? Nice progress man...

 

I dig it. The stance is killer. An RPU with a Lasalle firetruck grille isn't something you see every day.

 

SHHHHH be very very quite that is top secret. Yes I run the collision center there and I had it up at work makin motor mounts for it after work and before.Got alittle more room there cause my shop at home is full of retirement projects.LOL Heres a couple early pics from the rear of the truck and my hand built bed.This is pretty much bein built from stuff that most people would deem unusable.

fuggin' cool man!!!!!

 

Car looks great-good stance & proportions! The grill looks nice and different too. Makes me excited to start on the Model A cowl I have stashed(which is now 3rd in line)

 

Shoe, I dig the car man. I've got some killer steering wheels from the old boat yard here locally. I owe ya one for "cart storage". Let me know if you need one.

 

Those have to stay for sure!

 

Scoob I might need one but I think Randy D has me covered there He has steering wheel collection that is unbelievable.Thanks for the comments you guys the pics make it look better than it is.I have built most of this with a sawzall and a grinder the finish product I guess is all thats gonna matter.

i love it

 

Sweet ride....

and the box on the back makes it... practical...

 

You may want to put a cow-catcher on the front of that thing to push away roadkill.
That thing's got a cool look.
Yep, I'm all for big "headlights" as long as they're not droopy.

 

I think it looks GREAT!! but really though how far will you drive it before the front ends ripped off? its a little to low isnt it?
