Rat Rod

Rat rods are not for everyone. First look at this car would make you think "piece of trash" but the more you look, the more details you find. This car wasnt just slapped onto the road to hobble to its destination. Rather, it was carefully thought out to give the car the most character possible. You can start with the obvious rust patina on the outside, move to the rebel flag using the supports on the underside of the hood, the flame thrower side exhaust made from rectangular tubing. A huge Patron tequila bottle handles coolant overflow duties while the copper tubing ties in with the Ole Smoky Moonshine logo in the rear of the interior. Beer taps adorn the door handles and gear shifter, while a keg sits inbetween the driver and passenger. The whole land yacht lays down on an airbag suspension. This has to be the longest convertible ever made.

 

Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale

This past weekend, I got to meet one of my heroes. Not a sports star or rock legend, but instead one of the most raw, purpose-built street cars ever produced. The long name and hood stripes hint that this isn't just a rare Italian sportscar, but something even more special.
