Gearheadengineer Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I admit that I am not a purist and have modified my Galaxie with a modular V8 and a five speed. I admire quality workmanship and tasteful mods that make a car more drivable or improve the looks. This one ain’t that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 The use of the word "original" has gotten to the point where it has lost all meaning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supercub Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Pretty funky, definitely a hacker's creation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roysboystoys Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I read the ad as an Original creation, which it is. Amazing amount of work. Will take an amazing amount of work to " complete" it. It should sell for parts prices? Might be better if he took those awful wheels off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearheadengineer Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 It’s not really even “original” as in different. Rat rod cliches: - bubble gum welds: check - repro ad/sign used as a patch: check - drivable only on warm dry days: check - fake “patina”: check - wide open exhaust, exiting next to your ears and spewing fumes into the passenger compartment: check - painted or welded spider webs: wait, no spider webs? I guess it IS different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a new paint job, made to look like an old weathered paint job. If that’s not a waste of money not sure what is, but some people seem to like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmTee Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 A "one-of-a-kind original"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plymouthcranbrook Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 (edited) And sadly the nomenclature is wrong as well. P24 is a 1953 Plymouth. And I was so close to making an offer. But title issues... But there are 5 bids on it so maybe the title is ok that way.
