Lol nice driveway

 

yeah, the good ol' days...

 

that pic was taken in the spring of 2003 I think. I had cornered the Brat market in Iowa :lol:

 

oddly, of the 6 soobs in that pic, I still have 3 of them... though the wagon has gone and come back a couple of times since then :)

 

The '86 Brat is the only one that hasn't really changed....

yeah' date=' it's been a great experimental platform for me over the last 8 years... unfortunately, there's not one straight panel left on it...

A nice clean Brat should be kept stock due to the fact that theres not to many out there. Theres plenty of beater rust buckets out there to tamper with. I say leave the nice ones alone. Just my opinion but what do I know anyways..:-\ I love the pic of the drive way.. Looks like a Brat party going on there..:lol:

While I understand and agree with you I think in this case it was best to start with a rust free (majority) example. Putting that much welding, fabrication and good old heart and soul (not to mention cash) into a rusty brat would have been absolutely stupid. This brat was and now still is incredible.

 

Even if it is Orange.

Sorry... My bad... I didnt mean rust buckets to the extent of not worth fixing but rusty enough to maybe modify instead of restoring it. But to each his own. And yes I agree great Brat either way I just liked it stock better.:slobber:

I know what you are talkin about my Brat was real nice at first but over the years I had to fight rust and very little wheeling damage.......
