Going into my second year with "Judy" the ole Junker 1939 Plymouth...the more I work on it the more I wonder...what the heck was I thinking when I created this thing??
I have built a lot of rusty junk in my day but this Judy car is the biggest dung pile I have every created...
I sat in the seat the other day and I am like...this is the scariest thing I have every attempted to build...
Junk in its purest form...
It is based after my childhood memories of what I went to watch run around in circles and I gotta tell you...I know now why I thought those guys were larger than life...these cars were scary...to climb into one and then mash the gas to the floor and rocket around a dimly lit 4/10 mile track...
Those guys were crazy...they had more you know what than any of these guys do today...I drove roundy rounds for years and those I at least felt safe in...
This build is insanity....I could not even imagine guys that put big honking V8's in them...this is one step safer than a motorcycle...
Those guys were hero's in my little childhood head at least...
Still shaking my head when I work on it....
They don't call them Rat Rods for nothing...
