ratty rocco

after all i've been doing to try and sort the rocco to make her all nice and pretty, by tracking doors, a boot a good polishing, new alternater, fuel pump ect.

the car seems to want to make herself a rat!

there is already a huge dent in the passenger side door when i got it, then a friend reversed into the drivers side door with a renault traffic, then the steering diconnected sending me over a bollard scuffing up the front, then a taxi hits the rear quater and rips off the rear bumper plactic.

been out today and got my hands on an old cb aeriel. anyone seen any ratty roccos about?

what you recon?

dont do it fella, i havent seen your rocco first hand but id fix it if possible we all have poop lluck now n then

if i recall theres a 2face rocco going round, i really like it as its mint one side but had the other half absolutley messes with,

looks pretty smart

i was going to remove the front bumper plastic, the front n rear body kit plastics, then go from there. i didn't want to do anything that i couldnt reverse!

thats the way to do it mate make it reversible so you can always go back when youve had your fun with

a bit like this:


it's a "light rat" i suppose, just about accessories.

MMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm, the "show n shine" scene is still going strong. there are differant ways to approach a rat car. they build the imagination

i think a car that has naturally gone ratty is better than one someone has forced into it. ive got a picture of a white rocco that has seen better days and it looks awesome. my computer has died. if the hardrive is ok (i fookin hope it is) i will get it off there and post it up. unless matty has it too.

heres my old gtx that i spent many hours welding up then painted matt black. it could have worked with the right wheels and a good slam but not really proper rat.

yup "ratlook" is sooooo gay now, as much fun as i had in my mk2 i wish i never done it was cool at the time though. its alllllll about patina paintwork

Don't do it. You know it's wrong. Yours is very shiny. I even think about painting my caddy shiny but it's far too dented and battered so it would look horrible. I think you it would be cool if you do it properly-ship it to a desert and leave it 30 years to cook for a nice sun tan

i wont do any thing a cant put back todd

was thinking the same thing, but i had noticed that since driving with no rear bumper i've not had anyone tailgateing me.

think it's cos they're scared something else could drop off, or maybe it's the steel girder they dont like the look of. either way its safer.


just painted my rear lights red, i like it!
