Because he can.

Why build this?

i like the connecting rod "rear bumper"

I thought the answer was: "to get the taste of dog food out of his mouth"

At 22K, and few pics, no wonder there are no bids. I would think the rear connecting rods came off a BIG engine, probably a diesel of some kind.

While I'm somewhat attracted to Rat Rods, the biggest question is how does one register it? I know this varies by state, but, this would be a nightmare in Ct. The few I've seen around here had Mass or Georgia plates. The few with Ct plates were very, very mild "rat" rods.

I thought the answer was: " Because he can't make a fist"

Question- How does one get into that beast?

I thought the big question is "Why the berkeley would someone consider, even for a moment, paying $22,000 for that?"

One of my favorite jokes.

Q. Why does a dog lick his balls.

A. Have you ever tasted dog balls? Theyre delicious!

I've seen some ratrods chopped that low that had a hinged roof instead of a functional door door.

Hmm... tires are not actually above roofline. I detect fail.

I'm going to start making "un coppin'" kits. When this shock rod fad is over, there will be tons of undrivable freaks around that real hot rodders will want to be able to drive. I'll make a fortune.
