I love pick ups! Used to run a matt black Moggy Minor truck with a 1600 Twin cam motor -really should've kept it.
The cream one with the French flathead engine belongs to one of our Merchandise models I think. If not, it's very similar, though not sure it's the same grille. Check the Merchandise page of the main site -he's wearing one of the brown T shirts & leaning on his truck.
Glynn's beautifully ugly, (!), rustbucket was at the HotRod Drags a few months back at "Shakey", (Shakespeare County Raceway, formerly Avon Park). There's a few snaps of it in my photo gallery. Didn't think it was registered for the road -how the hell does he get it MOT'd? but I passed it on my way home. Luvverly.

Faux rust. Yeah, it's very much the "in" thing in rodding at the moment. Can look very cool on the right vehicle -implies it's been found in a barn somewhere, dragged out & driven just as it is. Takes a lot of effort to make it look that tatty!

This so me lol

Here is one radical and serious rat rod! chopped fiberglass 27 t-bucket, top has been chopped 12 inches in front, 10 inches in back.

lexan front windshield, body has been channeled 5 inches over custom 2x4 thickwall frame. 4 inch speedway drop haipin axle, chevy calipers, 48 ford spindels, chevy s-10 rear end, s-10 drive shaft, leaf spring rear, 305 sbc, freshened up, small rv cam, topped off with tunnel ram running 3 dueces, you talk about one attention getting machine!, radiator is a 68 camaro, grill shell from a international, tilt wheel, coker front ribbed tires on smoothies, general at tires 31x10.50 on rear, turn signals, brake lights, headlights, running lights all work, this car is a blast to drive.

Both doors work, it has model A door handles outside, speedway latches and handles inside.

This car is slammed, the roof in the back is the highest point of the car it measures 45 inches from the ground, the windsield is a dollar tall, top of winshield comes to my waist, Iam 5-10, I was going to cut top out and put a snap canvas top on but never got around to doing it.

I often wonder what the American registration process is like -do they have an equivalent of our SVA? Do they have annual MOTs? Our testers would have a heart attack if you turned up in that. Pretty cool though. Like the first & second ones.
