Nice "rat rod" -- some great ideas in that build. I think in the US the Rat Rod craze has reached its peak and is beginning to wane. Went to a few shows last year and the number of Rust and Rat Rods were much lower than in previous years. Just like the motorcycle craze in the early 2000s, it's pretty much played out.

On the other hand, the vintage pickup truck builds are going through the roof. Along with the vintage 60s and 70s models, 1980s and 90s trucks are making a comeback and are being actively restored and modified.

Are you seeing a resurgence in pickup builds as well down in Australia and NZ? I know utes are always popular --

Yeah I’ve seen the 80s square bodied chevys selling for more than I paid for my 86 when it was new.

Nice shot would even be good in black n white.
Is the need enough? Or does the want suffice?

Most of time I can't sign in because the verification asks for a word for  tractor car bus which is in the city. What word they want?

Not sure the answer to the question but it will go away after you have five posts.
People who confuse etymology and entomology bug me in ways I can’t put into words.
