57 Chevy Wagon Rat Rod

Will do...!

 

So I just asked the Boss about adding a new section to the forum regarding Hi-performance, Restomods,Ratrods, Customs, and Racing...so lets see how it goes!

 

I like the creativity that is put into these cars/trucks. It impresses me how they manage to acquire specific random parts put them together and make it work. Not just run but run very well, so well that folks stop and admire them, award them trophies at shows like mine. For whatever reason they seem to bring out the back road, no rules, fun, inspiration in most people.
But I just have one question. It only has one head light...is that street legal?

This one has been at our show and won a trophy or two. He has it up for sale now on Kijiji. Fun little truck.

 

Im thinking there is a second head light obscured by the tire?

 

I agree. It's just the angle.

 

No reply from the powers that be..so perhaps there wont be a new section to the forum..but it didnt hurt to ask!

 

I'm a huge fan of factory stock original, but I have to admit I'm liking that 57 a lot. Somebody really talented put that one of a kind wagon together and I'm positive he's darn proud of it as well he should be.
It's so exaggerated it reminds of an old time member of this forum. I can't remember his name, it might have begun with an E, but he was an amazingly gifted artist and he did these very impressive renderings of long rooves with over emphasized lines and angles and such. Anybody remember him?

 

I'd be all for a high performance section. Tom Cotter of Barn Find Hunters found a stock '67 Country Squire with a factory installed 428 4 spd manual. That had to have been high performance if ever there was one.

 

It's meant for driving on one-way streets only.

 

perhaps

 

On my 68 Mercury the brochure shows a 428 Cobra Jet was available with a 3 speed floor shift..man i hope to find one of those in the bone yard someday...
