Hotrod pickups

anyone have any pics of any barebone's hotrod pickup cabs late 30's early 40's kind of like this style? anything would help thanks

 

My old 37

 

Thankx PFF she looks good, so does the chick next to your ride lol. Anyone else got two pennies to throw in?

 

i'm making a truck in a similar fashion with a 41 chevy cab. (don't have any pics yet) i don't think i've seen one much better looking then heyitsnate's purple 36 truck. that one in old skool rodz was pretty cool too. i can't find any pictures of it though.

 

Here's a couple of a barebones, hotrod International I owned a few years ago. I know it's not traditional, but it was pretty quick for a daily driver. It ran 7.25 in the 1/8th before they invited me not to come back until I put a rollcage in it.

 

You mean a "Rudy" wannabe?

Yea... I got pics...

A friend of mine who is getting into the old hopt rod thing saw a picture of Rudy's truck and wants to "build something like it"... so I say, why? "Everyone is doing it"... he says "how come I've never seen any at car shows then...

So I started saving pics of them to show him how many are out there...

 

Rudy clones. damn I don't think Rudy knew what he started when he buit that truck

 

...and more "Rudys"...

I know copying someone is the biggest form of flattery... but Rudy is such a humble guy... I feel bad for even ***ociating his name with some of these piles... especially the last "abortion" pictured... ****ing Rat Rods ****...

Yea... and not one of them looks better aesthetically than Rudys...
Sam.

 

There's a few I pictured that are cool trucks though...

agreed sam. I think rudy's sat right. The lines flowed good. some of those heaps look like they were just thrown together. NOw does anyone have a picture of the real deal

 

I kinda dig the choppers inc one

 

here is a link to a post from a couple of weeks ago....

I think I said that same thing about 2 years ago and got my ***hole handed to me on the HAMB. But that's about the size of it.

What the hell's wrong with just keeping the fenders on post 1934 trucks and lowering them a little with bigs and littles?

Why must everything be a cartoon?

But this one kinda rocks. Lotsa cool details

Sam, I would gladly trade my firstborn for the bare metal, red-wired, w-headed monstrosity in your second post. Who should I contact to seal the deal?

And which truck is Rudy's? Sorry, I should have been paying attention.

 

My head's still realing. I don't even remember who was there.

...and imagine my nervousness when I actually got to see Rudy's shop and had to tell him that to his face. I figured he knew who I was already and would've thought I was a chump if I changed my tune in person. I was right I think.

That little Chevy is one of the things that came out of the HAMB that makes the HAMB what it is today. It ads a tangible result to all our arrogance. It's one of the things that kinda says, "put-up or shut-up."

Cleatus' kustom as well...

 

Check out the Rumbler's (Fla) recent thread,a couple more cool 'toon truck's.

 

....cause life's a ****ing joke.

Greazies rule....

 

yea, who's Rudy?

 

Again, the Search function is a thing of beauty.

 

not his truck but heres one of his creations

 

there it is in its current form. anyone got a picture before the rim change and the door panting. are you the current owner?

 

EDIT: Steve musta posted while I was.

 

Well, that one was built by our very own Lukester... and he had it up for sale here on the HAMB... so how come you didn't buy it?

The black primered one is another cool HAMB truck... as well as the red oxide one... and a couple of the others...

Sam.

 

I like hotrod Pickups.
