Not Mine.

I like the idea, but I don't like the realization...

69 Chrysler 300 old skool rat rod. Lowered with shaved handles and trim. Solid body in flat black. This is a pretty rare car, with only 1933 ever made, you won't see another one at your local car show. Strong running original 440 rated at 375 hp. 727 tourqeflite trans shifts perfectly. Convertible top works great. Feel free to call or text with any questions. 586-322-6708.

I just don't think C-Bodies look good in ratrod mode...

every day, every night. It's like a curse. But could be worse ;)

It is a stretch, but I see it for what it is so it doesnt bother me

The earlier models 65-66 can pull it off, but a verted 69 doesn't work at all. Somebody was trying way too hard.

It's definitely different !!! :lgm:

Certainly caught our attention.
Mission accomplished.

When I look at cars for sale I just look past the personalization, in this case the unfinished paintjob, wheels and interior décor.
Are the bones good, what will it take to get this car to the point that I would want it?
If the price is still good then go for it otherwise start dealing.
What I see here is a $4000 project, is it worth $4000? Maybe.

PS. flat black paint, red wheels and wide whitewall tire do not make a Rat Rod, just a car with and identity crises.

I wonder if it's really 375 horse? A lot of guys claim that but the VIN says otherwise

 

[polara71]

Excellent PS point

It's back... 1 Grand cheaper.

Still a dog. Shoot the poor thing and put it out of its misery....have the owner put down also.

I love that he was doing his best to make it it's own. Good for him for being adventurous and taking chances. I like it, but then again, I don't have gray hair. haha.
