My fascination with rat rods began back in 2019 when I was hired for a pre-parade photo shoot for a small Mardi Gras Society in South Mobile County, Alabama. I was immediately captivated by the eclectic mix of vehicles creatively rebuilt with vintage parts, each one more unique than the last. Picture this: classic cars adorned with Mardi Gras beads and streamers, rolling down the street in all their quirky glory. Since that unforgettable experience, I've dived headfirst into the vibrant classic car scene here on the Gulf Coast. I've met incredible car enthusiasts who pour their hearts and souls into building these masterpieces. This coloring book is my tribute to them—a celebration of their creativity and the art of transformation.
