Hi people. I built this truck in Austin, TX to help promote my hot rod businesses, houseospeed.com and hotrodshiftknob.com. The truck's name is Ratiki and its numerous tiki touches are the handiwork of myself and a terrific local tiki artist by the name of "Crash". We have her artwork on our site as well as tiki style custom shift knobs if anyone's interested. Let me know what you think of the truck. Thanks for looking.

That is one cool rig! Do you drive it around town much?
We love Crash's artwork...and your truck is a perfect canvas. We won a Crash drawing in a raffle at last year's Tiki Round-up. Lucky us! Fortunately, Crash had a booth at the Texas Tattoo Art Revival last weekend and we picked up some more "Crashes" for our growing collection.

Very Nice ratiki

I would love to see it up close to see all the detail

You have going on the beast... Beautiful Work

Welcome To TC ~ Notch

Very nice. Good job.

Ossum, just ossum.

The bamboo headliner is too nice, grill tikis too. The IC/dash/whatever done up in wood and the other details rock. As an ex-photog I can't help but notice that someone who knows where to point the glass put extra zing in the pics.

You guys did alright. First class or better.

That is some BEAUTIFUL work! You should be very proud. I especially love the grill.
