Hot Rods

July 17, 2011 by 3 Comments

Hot Rods are hot..while Rat Rods are…..well, cool.

Like this Buick.  We always called the ‘potholes’ or ‘portholes’ in Buicks “Connies”.

The Buick Roadmaster was one of my favorite rods when I was a teen.  Heck even now.  Just a mean looking car starting with the grill and the wide stance of the car.  Not quite Caddy but close.

They are ‘Kustoms’ not “customs”.  As in the Count’s Kustoms in Las Vegas (the guy seen on History channel shows Pawn Stars and American Restoration.  Definitely one of the best kustom shops in the country.

vs this Rat (nice one too)
