he had a show on cable called hard shine one of the cars they built was his ute he wanted to paint the whole ute black but got talked out of it by the boss of the so-cal speed shop.so he just re did all the welds on the chassis re did the body the same and put green canvas on the interior.another sight for some good rat rod photos is streetrods-online.com over 350 photos of oldskool rods worth a look when you get time.and some photos of the mainline would be nice. my brother owned i think was a 27 chev ute was flat black with acme explosives sign written on the front doors 283 chev no carpet just a very basic bench seat number plates wereKAB.00M.he eventually painted it flat mauve colour red wheels whitewall tyres put 350 chev and 350 auto on gas kool old ute.cheers gary

There's story in a Rodder's Journal mag a few years back about a (crazed) painter who had one of those as his work truck (in So Cal in the 50's). I think he had a worked Cad engine in it. Anyway, the guy would never pass up the chance to street race, towing his trailer, ladders on board the whole lot....
