I've been pounding a little Roadster on the streets for the past couple of years and I've been asked many times... "What color ya goin to paint it"?

I tell them I haven't decided on a color which is true... every time I decide on a color I'll go to a show and see 58 cars painted that or similar color!!!!

Meanwhile I've put 15,000 miles on that car in 2 seasons and still contemplate on the "Perfect" color...!

The bad thing is that in the meantime... my car is constantly referred as a  ratrod which seems to be the buzzword these days... No disrespect intended but in their minds... anything that looks rough and is driven is a ratrod.

Aren't unfinished A roadsters allowed to drive anywhere without being called that?

One thing for sure... it doesn't matter what they call it... I call it pure fun because I built it and I'm the one having fun driving it everywhere!!!

Didnt they call them beaters back in the 70's? Cars that were not 'finished ' but very driveable. Nice car by the way ,whatever you call it.

He wasn't anonymous when he posted that. I accidentally deleted his account when I was cleaning out a bunch of spammers.

No, our administrator was cleaning our spam out, and got you by mistake. I'm glad you made it back.

Is there a way to get my name to replace "anonymous"???

Will this enable me to find my other posts that I submitted earlier?

No need for colour , looks great as it is and certainly no rat Rod !

Thanks TJs Dad...

I sold the car last December and it's all painted with a custom interior and it looks outstanding however it's still called a "ratrod" (?)!!!! LOL...! :shock:

I did retain the grill shell and I'm gathering parts to build the "191" Roadster for my 191st car![/img]

The interior is to "DIE FOR"...

"Not bad for a ratrod"! Hahaha...!
