The first photo is awesome - some other good ones as well. I'll never understand the concept of the super-chopped, ass dragging rats or the tractor Vicky though(WTF?) - A total waste of time, money and tin IMO. What happened to making cars look good?

The 34 sedan has history they were built as swamp and farm field cars back when old cars were not as rare usually during the war when tractors were not available . A waste of time can only be judged by the person spending there time doing what they want with it.

Looking good is a matter of opinion.Who says there is any style that has to be the one that looks good.They are all someones idea of cool or useful and that is a good enough reason to build it there way.Who am I to judge what looks good. Ed
I didn't know the tractor wheels was actually a vintage kit, and in that case its historically interesting. The rat craze can be interesting for its creativity, I'll give it that. I think its a concept best left for paper or art however. Extremes don't do it for me (sky high 4x4 or monster trucks, LA style lowriders, slammed pickups or the most radical rats) Its like a race to be bigger, badder or more radical than the next guy or something.
Restored, mild street, street rods, resto-mod and Pro touring are concepts that make sense to me. Something that's hell on wheels to drive is not.
Just my 2 cents and efforts to wake up this sleepy little "discussion" forum...lol
