After reading http://www.riceboypage.com/ I was inspired to build the ultimate
rice-boy hatchback.

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=4902

This rice burner is loaded:
  lowered;
  chrome, extra-wide rims;
  chin spoiler;
  side skirts;
  giant spoiler;
  extra-wide fenders;
  racing seats;
  pinstripes;
  racing stripes;
  windshield banner;
  gaudy headlight covers;
  dual chrome exhaust tips;
  and last, but not least, a touch of yellow for that extra performance boost.
If I were less pure/lazy, I'd prolly cover it with stickers too :)  And, as
always, the doors open.  Please LMKWYT!

(...) Except I think the seats aren't leaned back far enough. The way you have them, you'd be able to see the driver's entire head, whereas they're supposed to be leaned back far enough so that you can only see their eyes. ;^) Nicely done. ~Grand (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.build)

I was diggin' this puppy in the Brickshelf showroom earlier. It truly captures the essence of "Rice Burners". I would recommend clear tail lights though. A lot of them have those. Otherwise, I can totally see me driving that. No, wait, not er me... (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.build)
