Theres good and bad in all of them I mean my dad had me into Dodge trucks when I was a kid but I finally saw the light and now I have 2 Chevrolet's now you can say what you want about the junkyards the reason they are full is because Chevy could actually sale a vehicle thats why you hardly see mopars/fords at the track!! And usually if its a mustang what do they have in them now SBC/BBC because they are cheap to run and cheap to build and last a good long while!!! You can get a good amount of HP per dollar with a chevy and mopar/ford well frankly they are high to build and if you buy a mopar body usually they are high if you find a good one the reason chevy bodies are cheaper is because they are more plentyfull because unlike chevy owners the product was to good to be crushed like a mopar/ford they'd rather crush a mopar/ford than let a chevy body get crushed so they just put chevy's in junkyards!! And another reason you don't see many mopars/fords is because the quality of the metal is to poor that they just rot into the ground!!

I have posted this before but it is worth repeating since the thread went that way.

The funniest thing I've seen on a car was a guy that had a holley carburator bolted to the center of his hood with a big chrome air cleaner on it. :lol:

This and you telling us about your first trip to the drag strip are the funniest things I've ever seen on RJ. Maybe any forum!

Well men,

I try to stay out of the brand comparison or bashing ... here is why:

GM made the Citation/Chevette...
Chrysler made the Aries "K" Cars...
Ford made the Pinto/Escort
Pontiac even made a "GTO" after 1972... not cool w/me.
Buick... seen some very undesirable rides.
AMC they made a "Matador/Hornet" ?????
Olds made all those 80's front wheel drive cars that nobody wanted.

As far as the good muscle produced from all of the above, I like them all. but they all came up w/ some bad ones too.

Post up if there are some other good names for these timeless & amazing white trash jalopy's. Keep in mind, if one of these species tries to tell you it is a "Rat Rod" they drive, we can't let them get away with that nonsense. These vehicles are in their own class... they really need a good name.
How about

"Jackass"

Are you saying call 'em " Jackass Rods"?? LOL

I say call 'em Rot Rods. They're not " hot" rods and most are probably half rotten! lol
