I'd say pretty much any domestic car build before 1990 that doesn't have a V8.

Less to do with bad engines, but bad parts availability to keep older/uncommon engines running.

V8's still have a ton of aftermarket support. Older 4 or 6 cylinders, not so much.

Cool styling+updated power.

That's a good one. I'm partial to the Jeff Healey version.

Drove the old tractor down to my folks place to help with some yard work. It's only about 10km away so not too bad.

Ran for about 4 hours non-stop and never missed a beat.

Also my first time using it in high range. Hit a whopping top speed of 15km/h! 😂

I think it turned out pretty good. I got it 15+ years ago and it's still holding up. 😅
Yes, I made a basic (outline) drawing of what I wanted first. But he did all the shading and whatnot.

Well I've only got the one.
I went based of a friend's recommendation. She knew the guy, and had multiple tattoos done by him.

And it was a reputable shop.

I was kinda wondering that. When I got these, I bought 2 very small ones that were supposed to be the same. I planted them about a foot apart, last 3 times it bloomed, one was white and one was purple. Now I've got this. Just kinda odd.

I guess it gives me something to look forward to next year. 😅

Old truck out doing old truck stuff.

Planning to leave it with just the bridge pickup?

I thought about doing a build using only a neck pickup, since I usually bias towards the neck anyways.
