    I love rods of all types {rat is not a type} ,
    At shows,I go to a lot of them,meet some great new friend.
    If they find out,I been building hotrods a long time < Started in the late 1950s>,I'll get ask now and then about something acting up on there rod??
    There a few things that are common things wrong,,that are EZ fixs*,most of them are very hard to get the owner to know how bad it screws up his rod,even more so if he built it!!

    Ackerman;>messed up/some even backward,,,Front tire off/out set;>bad front scrub,,, Poor frontend Geometry>bumpsteer,,,Poor shock mounts>so very little shock action,,,Steering wheel size under 13inchs>You can't control a big HP V8 in super low lbs. car with a go-cart wheel,,,,
    There is more,but those above show up way too much. :D:cool: I really do like,even the rods with those mistakes,as fix is not hard to do,after getting passed rocks between there ears....:rolleyes:

    The history of the 1930s +'40s overpowers those from before

    The official stance of The Jalopy Journal is simple: the Third Reich poisoned the swastika forever. I don’t care if it has older roots or if someone wants to claim it as a Navajo symbol—it’s been tainted beyond repair. You put it on something after 1938 or so, and it doesn’t speak of heritage. It speaks of hate, destruction, and losing—on a global scale.

    This machine kills fascists. Let’s not give excuses. Let’s move on before I have to delete all this shit.

    There is a solution; just "photoshop" out the offending symbol.
