Default "New" rat rod

5th gen Camaro "rat rod" with 1,000hp under the hood.

1,000 HP Fifth Gen Camaro Rat Rod - Autoholics

Personally, I would cry doing that to my paint job.

Awesome. Emailed to my dad. He's in that phase where he's trying to decide if he should get rid of his Z28 for a 'family car.' (Even though we are all officially over 18 and well on our way.)
I say no way. I just got rid of my Camaro, he can't get rid of his too!

I hear the phase after that is called "regret".

My dad used to have a cherry '69 Roadrunner 4 speed. Key words there are "used to". He talks about it every once in a while and I can tell he wishes he still had it.

wow, what a shame. especially after seeing the "before" shot. I wonder if the interior got the distressed look too. Would be odd to have bright and new interior with a thrashed paint/body. Thats not a ratrod, that is a catastrophe.

Being an owner of a "rat bike", I like it.
