Description

took this at the Goodboy car show.the truck is a 52 Ford and the engine(78' Caddy v8 stolen from Aunt Bea's Cadillac)was placed behind the cab.almost everything else was hand fabricated including the chassis. the "hood" over the engine is from a 57' Chevrolet. the engine caused the ground to reverberate when he drove by. check out the door handles!! this is a particular style where the owner does not provide good paint. there were several vehicles in the show of this no slick paint look, in fact many are rusted a lot. the mechanical parts however are in excellent condition thanks for looking and any off the wall comments are welcomed

I personally think the "rusty nuts" look is awesome! Picture it pulling up beside a tricked out street machine with all the perty paint and shiny goodies....then blow it's doors off!

Awesome subject! Someone has great mechanical/esthetic imagination and talent to pull it off. Love the tongue-in-cheek humor all over the vehicle! (The radiation sign cracked me up.) Definitely a head-turner! Thx so much for capturing this character and sharing with us! =)
