This is a sweet ride :cool:

Gonna turn it into a las vegas mexican pimp wagon complete with headcloth tassles and whore house match boxes on the dashboard

No, it's not.

I think you will find it is and you have no idea about ratted vdubs so walk out the thread

[TW]Fox · 14 Apr 2008 at 00:34

Last time I checked this wasn't a VWdub enthusiast forum so as such I'm entitled to my opinion

It looks like a ****ing heap.

And what in gods name is that stupid thing sticking out the passenger window? :/

The_One · 14 Apr 2008 at 00:36

thats what ratted is about

Its actually mint behind that "aged look" paintwork and has no rust, its concourse infact

It could look nice with a lot of work, but it looks awful in that state.

Does it say Penski-Light on the side?

I don't see the point in deliberately making a car that is supposedly 'mint' look like as big a heap of **** as you possibly can.

Another ratted vdub

At last, I can drive faster than your car

[TW]Fox · 14 Apr 2008 at 00:43

Let me get this straight, the old suitcase on the roof is an asthetic modification?

Lovely woodgrain effect wheels on the blue car.

Where is he taking that barrel?

mmmm squarebacks

I concur with Fox, barrels and suitcases on top of your auto mobile do not constitute aesthetic improvement. Neither does fake rust nor wooden alloys.

Looks nice. I take it the running gear and engine are sound? Nice sign writing on the side, any interesting stickers on the back?

A proper rat look isn't usually made to look like that. It just does look like that through genuine ageing.

Kinda like someone who has a 20 year old worn pair of jeans versus someone buying a pre=worn,preripped pair from the high street for £50.

If you care about such things, one of the above is 'cool' the other isn't.

Literally burst out laughing at that

I can just about see the point when penski posts some tatty looking car because all the moneys been spent under the bonnet..

But paying for your car to look like that? What's the point? It'd be cheaper to get it looking concourse.
