Unique? How about a 4dr 48 DeSoto and a 392 Hemi and all MoPar running gear? I know someone who built one of those. Can you imagine what he was thinking. Originally Posted by Dave Severson

If people can't order everything for their ride that comes out of a box and gets bolted on, most don't build it!!! Guess I just miss the old days when people did the majority of their own fabricating and not just jump on the net and see who makes something to bolt on. There are some very creative guys here on CHR, lots of very unique cars which is the main reason I like it here.
Funny you should mention Euro-Trash.... I keep scanning the ads and eBay for a BMW that needs to be adopted and hot rodded!!!! And I'm still waiting to find an old E-Type Jag in my price range!!!!
Maybe I've just been at it so long that any car that isn't totally one-off just doesn't excite me anymore. I still have an endless list of potential projects I'd like to build or see built someday and not a one of them will be a store bought body sitting on a store bought frame with 350/350 power!!!!!! 
I hope he enjoys it, because there is no way anyone would buy it.

I'd buy it, Jack. If it wasn't worth as much as my garage and all my stuff in it. You have one of the best looking rides on this site.

Why even worry bout puttin a tag on ur ride, just build it, race it or cruise in it. If it's different so much the better. Just keep it safe......

Q: What's a rat rod?
A: The latest fad, like lace painting, vans and welded chain steering wheels.

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
