    Redneck/Hillbilly vehicle options/mods

    I am just curious as to what strange things you guys have seen on a car or truck.

    I live in colorado, there is a guy out towards franktown that has a log for a front bumper on his dodge pickup...
    We have all seen the longhorns on the hood, that's up there for sure. Stuff like that.

    So, what have you seen?

      mexican manican in the grill of this one f450 that had a lift kit on it. Quite retarded since the person would have to jump to get whacked by the grill.

        I once saw a guy with dirt bike handlebars as a steering wheel.

                I wish I had dirt bike bars on my R1. They ride so much nicer.

                    We had a family in my home town hack off the back roof of a mid 90's Chrysler voyager so they could use it as a truck...

                    Picture below is not of the same van, but gives you the general idea...

                      theres some good cutstom fab suspension out there on the net

                      I've seen a scout 80 with a custom plywood cab converted into a truck

                      Seen a short bus with the top chopped to make it a truck

                      heard about a friends older brother making a bumper consisting of a rail road tie and lots of channel iron

                      me and my friend added a ghetto skid plate we welded up to his old chevy citation 2 to cover up the tranny pan. We also had to weld a hole in the tranny pan shut because we used it to hunt in and tore a hole in it.

                      someone cut out pieces of aluminum and riveted them to my Scout Traveler to add an extra set of tail lights

                      they did the same thing with aluminum and used self tap screws to install several different guages into the dash of the scout murdering the original dash



                      my shop teacher dropped a detroit 4 cyl diesel (2 stroke) into his originally 460 gas 90's ford 350

                      we put an international navi star from a ford into a bale wagon that still doesn't run/work dunno if that counts

                      I think someone on here (probably billybob) was using an old truck to power their log splitter thats kind of redneck cool

                      Edit: friend used to lift up the front of his truck via a forklift to change the tire

                      then the tractor ball 1 link suspension is pretty sweet/redneck

                        here is the citation

                        then he has a 400 Yamaha big bear and he cracked the frame in 6 spots and we had to weld it back together

                        oh and he converted the smog pump to go back into the air cleaner as a makeshift wannabe super charger on the citation

                        edit: I think the plate around speedo is actually galvanized someting or other, not even aluminum!

                        edit: he also disconnected the locking mechanism in the parking brake so that we could drift around dirt roads yeah we're smart...

                        edit: I'm sporting homemade light bar (which turned out well) and a homemade bed box made of angle iron and galvanized sheet

                        functional but looks like crap
