The orange Painless Pick-up is my pick for top Rod. Truely a work of art.

Hate to say it because I love V8s, but the best and most important rod at the 2009 SEMA Show was the Detroit Street Rods '34 with the EcoBoost V6 (http://speedzzter.blogspot.com/2009/...uture-get.html).

I'd give an honorable mention to the spotless DOHC Modular-powered '34 roadster that was parked near the EcoBoost '34 in the Ford display.

I did like the Painless car (which is based not on a vintage tin, but a late-model truck cab) and the guy from Painless spent a lot of time talking with me about its construction.

I thought the orage truck thing looked like ass...I hated it all except the wheels and engine...

These were my favorites



this may not be everyones cup of tea but man I loved this car, the color, the engine, the stance...everything...



I wish the ass hat did not walk in front of my picture on this one...I liked it alot.

But the thing about the Painless truck is that it can be built for much less than a traditional street rod.

Street rodding is too expensive for many younger builders. The average age of street rodding participants is rising.

It's good that some folks are trying to develop ways to cut the costs and make street rodding not so dependent upon vanishing supplies of vintage tin.

The Painless FI on the flathead was pretty sweet too!
