Emblem Ambivalence



Ambivalence, a noun , the definition as per the Webster Encyclopedic Dictionary of The English Language...

"Co-resistant of contradictory feelings about a particular person, object, or action."

This rat-rod had several marque badges attached to it. Pontiac, Nash (and no, that does not stand for Fearless) and another badge that Sam and I can't remember. It was a very ambivalent car as to it's true lineage. On the plus side, I think styling wise that this car could just as easily have been labeled with G A R or Chris Craft (look 'em up, seriously) marine emblems. Suicide doors on today's rod too kids, classy, but subdued. Well turned out. Style.

This vehicle's personnel area's were split by two distinct cockpits. They both had their own windshields, some shared controls, and complete gauge clusters, on their separate dashes.

According to Sam, "Two cars worth of dashboards, that's a way cool car."

Word.

I admire anything that's had a lot of time and effort put into it. Even a pile of crap takes a certain amount of intake and exhaust.
