Allow us to introduce you to the world of Rat Rods, epitomized by our own Ford Steampunk Pickup – a true work of art. Rat Rods and Hot Rods have been vehicles of personal expression for ages, with Rat Rods being especially enigmatic. These unique creations often feature a bare ladder-type chassis, open wheels, and a weathered metal body with a rusty appearance, coated with a clear finish. Their engines are typically powerful and exposed, matched with wild exhaust systems.
Rat Rods come in various forms, from Minis and Beetles to vintage Fords and Chevys, even extending to bikes and trikes.
Now, let’s dive into our Ford – a head-turner whether cruising streets or beach boulevards, but truly stealing the spotlight at car shows or malls. The attention to detail is astonishing, with intricate features like pressed copper plates and conrods holding the gauges.
Under the unconventional hood lies a 302 Ford V8 with electronic ignition, a hefty Four Barrel Holley Carb, and a blower-like intake. The exhaust system resembles Gatling guns, complete with hanging ammo chains. This setup pairs with a 3-speed automatic gearbox, providing a thrilling drive. The chassis, though unknown, ensures this Steampunk Overdrive mobile handles well and is equipped with reliable disc brakes.
The cabin is equally unconventional, featuring a chain-made chrome steering wheel and uniquely designed seats that offer a sensory driving experience. The artistic theme continues with a rifle and two handguns as part of the decor, enhancing the Steampunk vibe.
Finally, the body of this Overdrive Machine, a 1940s Pick-Up, is a true masterpiece in patina. From the rusty hole in the roof to the Rat in the truck bed, and the scattered ammo casings, every detail adds character. Even the handcrafted grill is a work of art.
The Ford Steampunk Pickup is so captivating that you’ll discover something new every time you gaze upon it.
If you appreciate the extraordinary and don’t mind standing out, consider investing in this remarkable truck. It’s sure to make you the star of the show.
