Title: Saw this setting outside a restaurant the other day
Post by: coyotehunter_1 on June 13, 2010, 07:04:33 PM
I’ve always heard you can tell a good eating establishment by the vehicles parked outside… like this custom street rod?

They also have Rat Bikes as well.  I've even seen contests for the worst Rat Bike too.
