THE RATRAM

[Arska2]

I know this thread will split the members in three groups, the ones that will like this project, other that will dislike it and the ones (like myself) that are not 100% sure !

Owner: Dodgeaxi (Forum name)
Truck : Dodge SRT10 RC
Project : THE RATRAM

Its quit self explaining what his route of mods will be, but he has some other aspects also in mind, like reducing weight, going with 20" steel wheels and loooooowwww....

The whole SRT aerodynamic parts will be taken away, he even considers to take away the bed :dontknow:, and some other parts.
Racing seats will be installed and some other goodies

Due to the fact that the truck is still in the container he started with the wheels..... Now you can imagine how the rest will look like....







One of his primary tools to work with :

 

[Arska2]

The first mod :

Wheels are assembled with tyres !
Color strip and clearcoated with whitewall tyres



MORE TO COME SOON !!!!!

I personally like RATRODS. I couldnt imagine using my Srt-10, but hey if you got the $$ and the balls I say go for it! Post pictures of everything!

 

[BlackVenom]

Ratrods are pretty cool looking but i dont think i can imagine a srt... maybe a flat black srt.. but not a ratrod... like he said above... keep the pics coming cause you never know,,, may look cool.

 

[fastestbrickonearth]

Looking forward to seeing this project

 

[Yellow venom]

This is going to be one different project! Will be interesting watching the progress, keep the pics coming!

 

[VPRPWRD]

Cool idea! I can't wait to see the finished product!

 

[ViperJeff]

[caveman]

I dig it! Cool idea.

 

[ARRESTmeRed04]

I like rat rods just can't really imaging what a modern car would look like as one

 

[BAD SNAKE]

I'm down with this project. Good to see someone doing something different. And you all know I like satin, matt, flat black paint. Keep the pics coming and do some werk!

 

[Arska2]

I must admit by the information i got so far on the project, it will be hmmmmm, ......damn ugly, but lightweight and fast....

I am also waiting for news on it. Once i have photos i will write up whats done and what the next steps are....

Alex (dodgeaxi) is really serious on this project and selling everything that has to do something with the look of an original SRT.

News to be updated very soon.....:rock:

 

[viperhauler]

link to the actual forum or build page? i'd like to see this...

 

[viperhauler]

new school ratrods can be very cool, IMO...

 

[Arska2]

Dan, the info is in my German SRT forum and i am sending the info parallel (live) to this forum in englisch due to language barriers of some of our guys.
We all want to keep track with you guys and i am the nominated one to
share the info in englisch with you

 

[viperhauler]

gotcha... i think it'll be bad ass... if he uses potato sacks for the seat covers, that'll seal the deal for me

 

[SRT10VENOMOUS]

maybe we'll end up with something like this

 

[ontariobee]

That does look cool, but it still looks like a camero. From what i'm gathering he's completly changeing the look. Be interesting what this things is going to turn out looking like.

 

[SRT10VENOMOUS]

he needs to do it correctly not half ass like that craparo ..

put the body on the floor, get the wheels up nice and high over the sides big tall white walls, chop the hell out of the roof, remove the front end just leaeve the grill and lights supported and lose the bed or shorten and chop it big time..

if its just a half ass like this craparo it will suck balls

 

[ARRESTmeRed04]

That's not a rat rod, that's a paint job

maybe we'll end up with something like this

These are rat rods:rock:
