hey guys this old honey comb radiator I salvaged off an old 36 volt generator put some lights and tires on it and hung the old heavy crusty critter on my garage wall. I have no imagination and would like to make it look better than it does now. Anybody got an idea How to make it look better..

yea I thought about making the head lights work and that's a good idea led takes less power and I could leave them on without a big electric bill. Thanks

that's a good Idea it would look like a rat rod. I can use go cart tires to match the size of the radiator.

yea Bob I think your right it's at the 10 foot mark on the wall and already weighs around 60 lbs and you can't see it in the pic but the fan blade and pulley is in there too.

It should be soon Treblig I think the only problem now is how to launch it off the wall and I need an old timer to teach me to crank it over
 
I like it. No imagination you say? I disagree. Want an idea for the tractor?

Add zoomie headers. And behind me the zoomies, more tire tread. Just a long flat up and down. It will look like a tall tire behind the zoomies.
Hey! Maybe, if your brave, you’ll can figure out a way for them to shoot fire! LMAO!
