Garbage Wagon


Now this is the exact opposite of a bob job, but I've always had a special place in my heart for these Coney Island Parade Floats. Seems to be an east coast thing. A common trend with old cars as well. East coast, add on stuff. West coast, take it off. This is a historical observation not a modern phenomenon.

Pardone! There's quite a few of those loaded motors out west, now and then. But since we didn't really start populating out here till the 40's the east just had more of them. They were truely the first customs.

Now now Rich let's not get all butt hurt over this. I said I had a soft spot for them. They can tend be be a little much is all. I think you can build a least to bob jobs out of one of them :)
