    Thanks for the update but we will leave the past in the past.

    I wouldn't mind one piece headlights, gives nice clean lines up front, but not sure my skills are up to pulling it off.

    I like it, now all it needs is an EF9 front bumper.

    the part i respect is the fact its just straight metal. or else they painted rust on there. lol.

    any douche could do it with body filler and a file, but manipulating metal like that, and it looking clean after, is impressive.

    wouldn't you just have to wipe it with a rag soaked with stripper and let it eat threw the clear coat and paint. then expose it to moisture???

    Dont think body filler/plastic can rust :wink:

    Means that the mods were all done in metal with no body filler (very impressive), unless it is painted to look like rust, then it could be filled with paper mache for all we know

    How hard is it to do the one piece headlights? Any modifications?
  • MrM3MrM3 Council Member
    Yes you would have to modify the fenders and hood.

  • DarinDarin Wagonist

  • HaydzHaydz Moderator
    Discuss this thing? Disgusting? It might just be the next big thing..
  • ThaClutcHThaClutcH Senior Wagonist
    Love the hood and fender work to get the headlights to fit. I wouldn't mind doing this at all.
  • OddMarzOddMarz New Wagonist
    Not much good to say about it, hellaflush look = wack and useless, VW looking wheels look cheap, VW style of rusting car is horrible, lowrider pin stripes just don't look good on the wagons bodylines, ONLY thing good about it is great body work
  • 666DAN666DAN Wagonist
    I like it but it's one of those vehicles that you either love or hate. Would I rock it, no but I apreciate it for what it is.

    Looks like the owner is going for a "rat rod" appearance. It would fit the rust and pinstriping.

    From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat_rod
    Paint and finish
    Typical "rough" finish of Rat Rods.

    Almost by definition, rat rods appear unfinished, with primer-only paint jobs at most. Satin or matte black and other flat colors are also common. Other finishes may include “natural patina” (the original paint with rust, blemishes, and sometimes bullet holes left intact), a patchwork of original paint and primer, or bare metal with no finish at all in rusty or oiled varieties, honoring the anti-restoration slogan that "it's only original once". Many rat rods also have free hand pinstriping done by the owners with a pinstriping brush. Contrary to tastes of many car builders, rust is often acceptable and appreciated by a rat rodder.
