I want to build a Mad Max style rat rod, what American car should I buy for this project? It's gotta look cool and not be crazy expensive.
>>27585973might wanna ask in /ccg/ >>27585606
>>27585973based project op.i always wanted to do this.The more famous Pursuit Special is a heavily modified Ford Falcon XB GT, built on a vehicle originally assembled stock at the Ford plant in November 1973. Maxwell "Mad Max" Rockatansky (Mel Gibson) is offered the black Pursuit Special, as an incentive to stay on the force as their top pursuit man after he reveals his desire to resign.i saw a indie documentary of a guy in the US who built one off a Ford Gran Torino i think

Chargers are kino
Depends 100% on whatever 70s coupes are for sale around you and if you can afford any of them. If you're too retarded to even use fb marketplace, ebay etc there's nothing we can do for you besides calling you a fag
Either a ford Torino or maverick
>>27585999thank you ChatGPT
>>27585973>I want to build a Mad Max style rat rod, what American car should I buy for this project? It's gotta look cool and not be crazy expensive.Crown Vic Police Interceptor.
>>27586910Based
>>27585973>It's gotta look cool and not be crazy expensive.Chevy Monte Carlo. Pontiac Firebird. Buick Regal, Buick Lesabre, Buick Park Avenue. Ford Thunderbird. Ford Crown Vic. Mercury Grand Marquis
>>27586396If you can find a rusted out shell for less than 50k then yeah, its a solid choice
>>27585973Get something small and good on fuel. Like a diesel Chevette
>>27586457>If you're too retarded to even use fbChill out anon, I just wanted opinions on what would be the best cars to look for. I remembered reading about that one you posted, found the story again (google Ghost Camaro). So badass, I hope it's real. Definitely the coolest car ITT.
>>27586954>something small and good on fuel.Ford Escort maybe.
>>27585973None. Stop ruining classics, you fucking nigger. Unless it's a complete basket case rusted to absolute shit.
>>27585973cheapest pre 75 american v8 rwd car you can find. whatever tickles your fancyI would just find something with the running gear you want and that runs first. then modify it. imo less is more when it comes to mad max aesthetic
>>27586857Fuck off torinos are a terrible choice
>>27586857Seconding this. Swap the nose and you've got a perfect Interceptor clone .
The front end was an aftermarket monza style body kit You could just build a interceptor out of a Chevy monza
>>27586910THE GENERAL LEE
>>27585973Dodge Neon from the local trailer park. The previous owner likely already did half the work for you when it comes to looks.thank me later.
>>2758597370s plymouth fury
>>27585973>Mad Max style rat rodIs this 2015 ? Those are almost always stupid over-the-top larpmobiles for geeky faggots. >>27587250 is right. The only way to make something alright is to salvage a scrapyard find, and make it road-worthy while not touching on the looks.
Someone in Australia built one with an S10
>>27586910this is the most practical answer, you can even get one of those retarded donk suspension kits for it and throw some a/t's on there instead
>>27585973You could use pretty much anything. XB Falcon, 69 Camaro, Model T, an old 50s land barge. The latest movie even had an R32 Skyline
>>27585973Pacer
>>27585973Im going to make one out of a 3rd gen Camaro
>>27585973Dodge dart or plymouth duster.
>>27589429Here it is. From Fury Road.
>>27585973New one uses a 60 Valiant, which i think is based
>>2758597374 Roadrunner. It seemed to work for the Information Society guys.
>>27592497here's a clean pic of it
