While I'm surely running afoul of rockabilly nomenclature by even mentioning the phrase "rat rod" in regard to this ride, I don't really care. Seriously, unless we're talking about bourbon, I'm about as far from a "purist" as you can get. So I'm not going to say sorry until somebody with sleeves and slicked back hair threatens to kick my ass. Anyway, this gorgeous creation was parked in the Firestone Industrial Products booth, and I had to stand back to keep from drooling all over the sheet metal. How dope do the motorcycle tires look up front? Since it's running a Chevy 350 mated to a Tremec six-speed, I have to admit I was a little confused by the Peterbuilt badge about the grill. But that doesn't make this creation any less awesome. Check out a bunch more glamor shots and the full specs after the jump.
