Hot Rods one bad model a tub

anyone else have pictures of this car? its freakin wild. built by lee osborne. you can find him in the guiness book of world records under the raddest ****in dude alive.

 

that is indeed, one sweet ride.

 

Cool car ... what's the grille off of?

 

everything except those cheap turn signals????? How could you mess up on that one thing and get everything else right?

 

i think he said it was a dodge pickup but heavily modified

 

I'd rather have the green truck in the background with all the wood on it.

IMHO customs look good that low, HOT RODs ..not so good.

 

Anyone know what the wheel covers are?

 

Same here! Man what furniture I could make with a stockpile like that!

 

Caps look like '32 Ford

 

Looks good.

 

Look like wire wheel covers but are different than some I have seen.

 

Nice lookin tub!! Bad lookin picture download!

 

grill might be 38 desoto ?

 

heard that he got rear ended coming back from Pa a month or three ago, know anything about it?

 

Now THAT is a nice looking hot rod.

 

There's a line or two about in the newest Street Rodder in the coverage from a rainy day show last year. Driver was OK, tub didn't fare so well... but they didn't say just how bad it was.
The silver sedan beside it in the first pic is his old man's.

 

I like em... and the fact that you could pick one up at any truckstop or parts store makes it even cooler, especially after you knock one off hitting a chipmunk!

I likes it too. Too bad if it got popped.
Really looks like a gas to drive.
Could the grill be off of a tractor?

 

I saw it at the Northeast Nats this fall. Lots of cool details. I liked the shifter and the old washing machine badges. Personally I would have given it some rake. Here are pics from the show coverage.

 

Cool lookin' tub. With all do respect I'd like to redo the pipes, to flow.

 

39 Dodge, I agree they do look tractorish without fenders. I wouldn't like to meet it oncoming at night.

 

It was punched pretty good in the back on the trip home from Pa.
Rather than knocking it out because of how bad it was, The damaged area was replaced with a 'new' section from another car.
I saw this one going together..It IS a pretty wild car..
One of the thing's the owner wanted was for it to be LOW AND drivable.
It get's the wheels driven off it.
Gary (the owner) drove down to the Jalopy Showdown with us last year..
in the rain, ALL the way there and back!
Sorry no other pics Mat..
How you been anyway?

Figures, the heap's got a small block chevy in it and someone notices cheap turn signals?! It's got the generic motors mill in it, what could be more boring?

 

???????? Sure looks like an Olds to me.

 

That's funny....Look again.
It IS an Olds.

 

I agree 100%. The how low can you go thing is for customs, low riders and race cars.

But I do understand it's all personal taste.

I'm also sorry to hear of it getting wrecked.

 

I like those wheel covers.
Big Pictures are good too!

 

Looks like a 40 dodge grill. I like it. Looks good.

 

You said it all, The car gets driven. Who cares what kind of turn signals they are?I bet that they are harder to see when the car p***es at 70 MPH. I dig it.
