WTFaNG Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 That thing was in a mag? I can see it now. "Look at how expertly he backed into a telephone poll to get those luxurious folds and bends. And just like a custom shaved tailgate, this one does not open either. But who would want to haul anything in a show PIECE like this...." Alls i got to say is Ponkotsu! and You shut face now! your complaining like magazines here dont do rat rods. ahh yea thanks. Quote Link to comment

ggzilla Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 'flyrat' is just ugly old cars like jellybean skylines... Ratsunny ... I'm glad he has fixed up the Sunny Truck a bit. It looked really bad back in 1995. Now it is up to our Ratsun standards. Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 What an informative thread lol, props to steroid on all that. That title is funny AND fitting too. "ponkotsu but beautiful" Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Ponkatsu means "junk" Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Ya, garbage, poor condition, scrap etc... Quote Link to comment
spiffinspudater Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Is it strange that that truck kinda makes me want to back my truck into a tree and take a baseball bat to it? I think it is beautiful! Quote Link to comment
Beau M Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 All I'm saying is if you want the same look, go to the nearest junkyard and pull out some wreck that was once an obscure vehicle that is 30 + years old. While I dig old cars, and junkyards, do some work to make it look decent. You can get the rat look without it looking like it was in a fatal accident. Quote Link to comment
jknc90 Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 I love true rat rods, but I don't see any significance to this truck. Not trying to be rude or anything, I guess I'm just missing something but this doesn't seem like a rat rod to me, just a truck that has seen better days lol. Quote Link to comment
zetozeto99 Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 That Sunny-Tora is awesome! Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 I think it only works in Japan, where that truck driving around would be unique. Here, we already have a bunch of beaters, so it would not be unique here. Quote Link to comment

jknc90 Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Maybe thats it, its unique and interesting in Japan. But here, unless its got something amazing under the hood...I'll pass. Quote Link to comment
