Constructive criticism: things that could be done differently
Everybody has their own vision of a rat rod, but some like the International truck cab/Grand Prix stick out like a sore thumb and make you wonder, what the heck were they thinking? I thought I'd start a thread with some pics of things that could be done differently. These are all subjective to your own views, what one person likes another will think looks like crap. Feel free to comment and add your own pics and thoughts.....
My biggest gripe-nose heavy out of proportion front ends-
Good looking truck, until you check out the front end:
The grill is way to forward to run fender less and hood less, making the whole truck look nose heavy. On top of that, the grill shell is taller than the cowl, again giving it a funny, nose heavy look.
Just a pet peeve of mine, is proportions. Add your own thoughts and things that you think might have been done differently, might look better or work better. It can be body or chassis related. It might just help somebody to look at something differently.
Everybody has their own vision, so it's not black and white and I'm not saying they're wrong and I'm right, just trying to add a different view on things.
