    sar·casm - (särkzm) n

    1. A cutting, often ironic remark intended to wound.

    2. A form of wit that is marked by the use of sarcastic language and is intended to make its victim the butt of contempt or ridicule.

    Is the motor high just for kicks? looks like it could come down about a foot and still not be below the scrub line. I'm not judging ,just asking. Why wouldn't you bring the front of the frame back to level ? I like how low it is. Kinda looks like gasserfreaks old 27 that belongs to Daddyo now.

    I think there has been a lot of hard work and craftsmanship that has gone into this rod...........what kills me tho is that there are SO many naysayers. What's wrong with you people?? If I remember right, there is another radical hotrod built on the same concepts and EVERYONE drools on it.

    Difference is? I'd like to see this one move down the highway under it's own power vs a car trailer.:rolleyes:
