you've got no clue how many asians drive those things these days. I went to a show one day and it was just old rat rods like there and there were a good amount of asians there, the best were the ones all dressed up like greasers


But asians have gotten into hot rods int he last 10 years. I had this total FOB want to buy my suburban

"Happy Daze Louvers" they would louver a full hood for like $200.00. Are they still around?

Right, but that's also why you have to have an Acura in the garage. When you want comfort, take the acura out, but the rest of the time drive the rat rod.

I just love anything in black primer. The older the better

photohost has a 500k size limitation...don't know what happened. You could at least comment on the engine.

They lay clearcoat over the black primer no ??

I'm on the east coast, so while I do know what Cali Suede is, I'm not sure if it's clearcoat over primer by technical definition. We usually only have rusty rat rods. Usually just in primer.
