    I'm buying it, driving it straight to tijuana, getting hookers painted on the doors and spilling tequila all over it.

    This guy had a 28,000 price tag on it when I went to the Pumpkin Run near Cincinnati. Hell you could build Three of them for that price. I liked the tequilla logo better. Still a cool looking truck.

    I heard his Mom made him change the whorehouse street art. Don't try to clone this truck. Create your own ideas, be original! What a concept.

    "The body is all orginal steel, for the most part is nice. I perfered to leave orginal, gives it more character"

  14. it's a cool truck no doubt. but couldn't a guy build this thing for 5 or 6 grand? i guess flat motor stuff is high. but hell there's nothing else there.

    Man, that was short lived. First his ole lady (mom or wife) makes him paint over the too cool art work, now he's selling it. Glad I don't live in that household!

    ............uh................started what?.............Im confused
     
  20. Petejoe, you couldnt build that truck with any amount of money

    Justin, take your pickup, your fairlane, and your volvo and blow them out of your ass

    Has anyone ever seen the bottom of that truck? Did anyone bother to look at the finished product in person? Rudy can work a circle around just about anyone on this board.

    does anyone know what your fucking name is?

    All the truck needs is black lacquer, red tuck and roll and a bunch of chrome and polish and it will be done....I'm not kidding, I think it would look great finished.
     
  22. you forgot to call me a scooter fag bigmouth........

    did i ever say i didn't like it?
    i think it's bullshit that eveyone tried to copy it after it was in all the "cool" mags- all the while i hear stories about how the builder himself is making fun of all the corners he cut. i won't dispute his talents though- i've seen his work.

    what are you defending anyway?

    oh, and i just got the joke..........

    There isnt a shitbox within 10 miles of that car unless he drives it to paso.

    I'm a bigmouth? Check yourself son. Maybe try reading a few of my posts.

    Your Making alot of assumptions Low and loud....
    I have seen this truck in person and it is well put together.
    Rudy no doubt can make anything he puts his mind too. I admire his work. But don't ever tell me what I can and can't do..............Jerk
     
  26. blah blah fucking blah..............
    you guys need to settle the fuck down, it's just a godamned hotrod, no reason to get all pissy with each other
    Paul, you're right, Rudy could work circles around most anyone here, 'nuff said
    Skip
    PS- if you don't like my comments, GO FUCK YOURSELF!

    PSS- if anyone doubts the quality of the work on the truck, I have a CD full of detailed shots showing every little detail, be happy to email em to you, just so that my good friend Rudy's name doesn't get dragged thru the shit!
    once again, if you don't like it, GO FUCK YOURSELF!!

    Pretty cool truck, however I would hate to try to fit my 6'1" fat assed body into it! I am tight fit in my stock cab......oh to be a little shit! It does need a coat of flat black w/ a red & white pleated interior. Some cool red & white lines would be also be great. It sure seems like a lot of dough!
     
  30. Yeah Hatch- I think they want to achieve an "identity"/.or "claim to fame"/ [based on owning it]-Huh?why dont it occour to em to just set out to build a better mousetrap of their own? [​IMG]why not be an original-Damn it!~
