1947 Ford Rat Rod Hot Rod Custom Coupe TOTAL CUSTOM

1947 Ford rat rod hot rod custom completely hand made Description

Up for auction is a toy that I built from "NOTHING". It started off as an idea for a hot rod coupe since at the time, really nice all steel coupe bodies were way out of my price range. Then one day I saw some really sharp body lines on a newer car at the junk yard and decided to draw up some ideas.
This creation is more or less parts of 129 different cars. The age range for the parts are from 1921 to 2010. Makes and models are Ford, GM, Dodge, Mercedes, Mazda, Toyota, Honda, and even Harley Davidson. This is a Steel car and NOT fiberglass, or a total bondo sculpture. I can attach a fridge magnet anywhere on the body.
I have roughly 3 lbs. of receipts for this car and that was just from when I was actually trying to keep a tab of what I was spending.
I have driven this car exactly 3 times total.

Thats about it. I am selling it because as long as it is there, I have no desire to move on to any of my next projects. It has gotten to the point that it is actually hurting my ambitions, so it is time to let someone else enjoy it. This car was "MADE", not modified. If you started with a car, then it is modified. This car was an idea that evolved into a running driving car. If you buy this car and someone looks at it and says "my friend has one just like that", you are officially allowed to call that person a moron in front of all his friends and yours. This car is 1 OF 1.
