Does it have a big ass motor? Yes it has a V8 shoved in the back.

Does it have a crappy paint job?? Yes look at the picture of it and you’ll see.

Does it have after market wheels??? Yes 16 inch American racing wheels.

Is it lowered???? Yes it is lowered.

So the question I’m asking is, is my bus onn it’s way to being a rat yet. If not what else needs to be done.
Thanks

you got to get a retro old school 60s bullbar to hold your radiator and a bit of spray rust "check the rats on american sites i got a guy that can make a copy bull bar for you.
And how about a big "say" tony hawk or powell peralta transfer stuck on the side like an old skate support bus and spray the black over it and sand it back so it looks like its been weather worn from the early 80s
anyone got my vision?

Yeah get some mad transfers on the side ... maybe an independent sticker down the side ...

Lose the bullbar ... and maybe get a chrome 3" nudge bar ... mmmm sweet

What are some other sweet transfers?!?!?!

maybe i am wrong, i thought rats were all about original worn and faded paint and interior with to many accesories and a wild hidden running gear so poeple think that you are in a worn out old crapper and when the lights go green you can stick it up those fire crackers from japan.
none the less i like whats happening with this aussie rat looker. on bays i like the look of the sun visor, and i have seen somewhere that you can get front door window visors for bays that would be cool ,oh and a spoiler like the one on the indians panel got to love that

if you're keeping the bullbar (eeegh) mebbe spray some shellac fake rust on it with a squirt bottle and see if it helps at all. definately go the matt black, and a huge sticker on the side, either old commercial style or funky skate motif.... hell this one's even making me want to design it....
😀
and post progress of course..:thumb

Uhh.. Flaps = Whitewall inserts.

Not female genetils.

Smoothies are normal dome style hubcaps.
