Post a image of your preference for the ideal classic hot rod ever designed applying mag wheels. You can selected a historic car or truck or a modern-day make, but it has to be traditional.

A dialogue of what is and what is not standard will only demonstrate your ignorance, so do not go there. If you have uncertainties, you are disqualified. If you simply cannot determine, you are disqualified. If you have a best two or three, adhere em all the place the sunshine don’t shine. Have some fortitude. Decide just one.

My selection? Very well, it could possibly surprise you… It’s a 1955 Ford Thunderbird that was designed and styled by Bob Hoshiko and is now owned by Dave Simard. A great deal of men and women confuse this automobile with Doane Spencer’s minor photographed ‘bird of the similar era. Even so, they are essentially two various autos. Bob and Doane were being close and when Bob acquired prepared to establish his have Thunderbird, he used Doane’s for inspiration.

And even though I do love Doane’s car or truck, it is the tiny specifics on Bob’s that carry it to the top. For case in point, those little bumperettes produced of steel rod? Come on man… Way too very good.
