I agree... I think we can continue on with the movement if we ignore the bad comments

I still do not have the wheels on the car. I was waiting on tires from a sponsor but now I'm just going to buy some.

Uh oh, we cant have 5 posts of random, thats unheard of for ht!! Get back ontrack or you never get to talk about the track again... thats like saying eat your dinner or you never get dinner again. Come on mod, let the kids chat a little. From the looks of it, some kid posted his obviously NOT rat rod inspired honda, someone told him to stfu, a few kids exchanged a few posts, none of which were even that hostile and now the threads at risk of being locked. Come on.

nice looking rides. Subscribed!

Re: Let's see those rat rod styled Hondas/Acuras

I LOVE that you can see the tire through the headlight opening:

It would be nice to see some flip-up light preludes/accords and just older Honda's done in this style.

Re: Let's see those rat rod styled Hondas/Acuras

So let me get this straight: when the Westcoast sets trends - it's shaved engine bays, custom brake lines, k swaps, powder coated subframes, and full wire tucks.

When the midwest sets a trend - it's rust.

Okay, proceed.

Re: Let's see those rat rod styled Hondas/Acuras

yeah get off your high horse, the Westcoast doesn't start as many "trends" as it thinks it does. it just publicizes them, and brags about it.

anyway, when you mix Tractor parts, and Honda's you get this:

Re: Let's see those rat rod styled Hondas/Acuras

Oh hell yeah, that's like my two favorite things in the world right there... rat rods and hondas... I just googled rat rod honda cause the idea came to me and found this. I'm in shock. I got a 95 accord wagon beggin for some 50's hub caps+white walls and a drop. And my 90 Civic wagon def needs some rust haha, all these years on the look out for non-rusted old honda's and now this. I need a beer and a grinder right now. Great way to **** off the JDM fan boys.
