ER0L Posted June 9 Posted June 9 Inspired by Sérgios fine rods presented here lately I remembered an old rat rod MOC which came out when the Friends lipsticks emerged. I kept the rear part of the vehicle but rebuilt the whole front section, changing inter alia the lipstick ignition into lipstick exhausts. Those glorious old parts really make the rat rod, there's even still a bit of dust on it. The old Chevy Impala convertible which was seriously damaged was fixed recently, it has a custom chrome free chassis now. Another pic: Thanks for looking! Quote
Sérgio Posted June 9 Posted June 9 Oh wow! First of all its a honor, that something i did inspired you, because you also inspired me a lot! Both look awesome, and that natural tire weathering fits the Ratrod vibe very well! Quote

Glad you like it. 16 hours ago, LEGO Train 12 Volts said: The black car with those old school wheels is awesome! Thanks a lot! I'm adding a pic with another revived rod from back in the day called "Baby Blue II". Front and middle section were overworked, guess the two might go well together on the Route 66 layout. Hopefully there'll be some more rods in the future, however it's much easier to overwork an existing model than to create something completely new. Thanks for looking! Quote
