has anybody seen the new pest control commerical with the 2 rats playing gee-tires then getting in a rat rod? i saw it for the first time last night.
 
Doesn't apply to Rats, but I like the one where the guy smashes the spider on the phone!! GOT IT!!!

I don't even know what their advertising, but I laugh every time!!
 
My favorite is the Geico commercial

That was funny. I hate commercials, but at least like when they are creative,

with the Wood chucks..... as many times as I've seen it I laugh every time.... most of them (Geico Commercials are pretty funny).... one question.... is the guy in the suit supposed to be a Miami CSI Lt. Kain clone or like Rod Sterling from the twighlite zone?[S
 
the "real deal" on a "ratrod!" ha ha loved the car....anyone tell me what it is?

i'm thinkin an A roadster-maybe a coupe-turned roadster...but the grille?
or am i way off?:eek:[S
 
No, you are right on. I froze the picture and got a good look at it. It is either a 29 roadster or coupe-turned-roadster with a flathead with 2 carbs and zoomies. The grille is a 37 Ford pickup grille and the wheels seem to be 16 inchers off of a 38 Ford because of the wide 5 hubcaps. The wishbones are unsplit and it seems to have a dropped axle under it, and the tail lights are 39 Fords.

All in all, a nice little hot rod.

Think the back half, (most of it) might be handmade. Looks like a real deck lid though.
No doors, no windshield, the lip around interier looks little wide.

Whoever built it did a nice job!!!
 
don you are one very observant rodder...i didn't look THAT close....but it is a pretty cool lil ride-i wouldn't be ashamed to call it mine from what i saw of it...:cool::cool:

I thought he sounds like Robert Stack, kind of an annoying dork. Some of the insurance commercials are pretty good. I like Flo (Stephanie Courtney), hate the Limey lizzard. The woodchucks are great.
