    I think they don't like the color.




    Think about how long it took someone to build that thing. Really think about it, he not just dreamed it up, but actually built it all the way to being finished. Painted it and everything.
     
  4. Isn,t there a "build" shot of that somewhere on here, someone may or may not have inserted a Boyd in the pic too.

  6. That looks like a one barrel. I think a 4-bbl would be more interesting.

    Haha, no kidding. I think he may have realised it was a bad decision half-way through the project, but thought he had come that far, and mide as well finish it off. :D

    Unless he's totally nuts and thought it was a great idea from start to finish. :D

    I don't know what's funnier in this pic, the DONK wheels on a Pinto, or the fact that it's pulled over, broken down.

    This kick-ass picture is brought to you by the guys at www.Chevybombs.com which is really a great site for early style lowriders, someone just happened to score this picture at the gas station.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a day, not too long ago, that Ol' Rim-Fu walked out of the shop and said, "I don't know what happened... I got stoned, turned around, and when I turned back, there was all this weird shit welded to it."

    And who needs a lift kit when we've got a Sawzall?!!!

    I'm sorry, but that really was some funny shit that day. Don't deny it...you know yer laughing about it right now! :D

    I remember reading in a magazine a few years back about a guy buying one of those wacky show rods real cheap because no one wanted it.

    He promptly dismantled it for parts. A Hemi, two blowers, some wide mags and assorted other stuff before he threw the rest away.
