-Exactly, what a bunch of hyper-sensitive sissies. Radial tires on a fenderless hot rod = rat rod Lake pipes on a hot rod = rat rod Skulls,...
After 5200 posts on here you still don't know the difference?
I'm with southpark here...this is a rat rod. If you're going to post pics of a a rat rod on the HAMB you can expect to get flamed. We've been...
