Rat Rod

I was on my way home from a friends house and noticed this Rat Rod which seems to be a trend here in the USA. A Rat Rod is a Hot Rod with a really strong motor and a ratty body (a sleeper).

 This truck is a Frankenstein of sorts with a General Motors body combined with a Chevrolet hood (bonnet) and a mixture of parts from other vehicles.

Notice the Pennzoil oil barrel that was sawed in half to repair the transmission tunnel in true Rat Rod fashion.

It just wouldn’t be right not to take a selfie in these hubcaps 🙂

Here’s To You !

Santa

We are finally done with our regular posting schedule for this year and now its time for Santa Joe to relax and have some milk and cookies, err…something to that effect!

I want to take this time to thank all of my hard working elves (aka contributors) for a wonderful 6 months, and all of our followers for being so gracious with your generous comments.

Beginning the day after Christmas we have some special posts in store for you, in fact we have a whole week of guest posts lined up.

 We hope you enjoy this special week of posts and all of us at Monochromia wish you a Happy Holiday Season and a safe, healthy and prosperous New Year.

P.S.  thank you Mrs. Santa for capturing me in one of my finer moments 🙂

“Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night”
