this doesn't say hot rod to me.....it SCREAMS farm toy ! a lot of old hot rods came off farm land like this....started out as "fun buggies" to drive around back roads and through feilds and most that drove them were underage kids. my mom used to do that in the late 1950s when she was about 8 years old lol
i don't think i have seen another ride like this, i think it's neat...but IMHO... the look it has, the skull and iron cross are a little out of place...everything else is just right!

Obviously the skull and the Iron Cross were added when someone's grandson pulled it outta the barn and got it running again last year...

BTW: I love the rails the seat is on to 'move' it back-and-forth, that is a great detail!

by the way, i just noticed the shocks , they look good. not many people pay attention to that detail painting... they look used and as if they are greasy that way. where did you get the seat?
