Description One of the pleasures of cruising in a nice hot rod or rat rod is destination. It's kinda like off-roading in a way. Senseless if Ur not going anywhere. Even if it's a simple pick-nick at the top of some hill - U has a responsibility to be going somewhere in the old Ford Rat Rod T ~:0)This great old Ford Rat Rod T - I really enjoy saying and typing 'Ford Rat Rod T'. There's something very satisfying about that. There goes another digression. I knows some sticks in the mud who berate me for my digressions. Personally I find them very Capra-esque - Ha!Anyway this great old rat rod is the very essence of spare. It is so simple and clean it brings a tear. The mill is a simple straight-six with a couple of nice carbs with proportioned chrome air cleaners possessed of a jaunty angle in their mounting. A very refined look in the open engine bay. I'll do a pix featuring that end of the rod soon. And the rear end is a real bewdy! There's nothing there!! How cool is that? And that fuel tank is a big fat work of art. They've welded up two halves of something to make the thing. And that's saying something with that quality of weld-work. Every detail on this Ford Rat Rod is quietly spectacular. I guess that's what they call 'Zen'. ~:0)So - here we are at one of me fave sunset spots. When are we there? We're there at sundown. What are we doing? We're having a nice time. We had wine. (and Ronald our designated driving robot for suchoccasions- Ha!) - - - for U blue-noses out there - we were there for the night. The place is a bed-and-breakfast. It's a popular destination - so there!So there U have it! Great looking! Great Driving Ford Rat Rod and a Great Destination. U should try it sometime. There's something to be said about going somewhere cool in a cool ride. Don't forget to get urself and Ur loved ones nice prints of this little bewdy for Ur walls. - It's a Good Thing ~:0) VivaChas!
