Dave told me about this several weeks ago and now the news has gone public. I've been preaching about modifying the 33 chassis to make a Phaeton with a small kid sized back seat for years. Rat's just happens to have such a body. Things that make you go "Hmmmmm???" ;)

I used to be pretty "in the know" about such things but lately this is more my status:

Had no clue. I wonder what else they have ready for SEMA? It seems to be their big "coming out" party every year now...
