34 chevy dwarf car

l had a dwarf car l came up with and since l don't race any more l decided that a street car it shall be..lengthend the frame eight inches so the engine sits straight, not sideways, power will be a 1100cc 1989 honda motor V twin. l think the twin will sound more old school. hope to have it done around spring time,,does this qualify as a rat rod?.. l am leaving the numbers and the rough looking paint on it.. in my state you can run under the fair wheather law, no fenders or wipers, gonna be a blast l think,, let me know what you think ..... J

You know what I think. I have always it would be a great Idea. Remember when the fiberglass bodies for volkswagons were so popular? I would not even worry about the "rat rod" thing. Rat Rods are hot rods with unconventional builds.......bingo. It is too bad you have to do so much work on it. But If I had that start, I would be all over it. Which ever way you go, keep us in pictures.

do it

you already know i think it's a great idea,....

I think it's a fun idea. I say do it.

And just as a side note, check this out a1966post. It was posted here a while back.

Gastrick, That is one trick truck! Around here we'd use snowmobile engines!

a1966post, Last summer a guy brought a dwarf car to our Friday night cruise (there are over 500 cars every week). He let all the little kids sit in it. The kids were really excited. My first thought was, "street it". Glad to see someone is doing it and RRR will be able to see it.

Just do it!!!

66,
Do it!!! That would *definitely* b kool! Let's see some pictures!

Gastrick,
After I saw that car last time... I have that on my list of things to do! I'd like to cut down a newer Ford cab like Don posted a while back... it'd make an awesome roadster & I bet it's b pretty fast & get awesome gas milage... especially when gas gets to $5-$6 a gallon!

BoB

I've been wanting to see one streeted. How will you back up. Oldschool sound?? School must not be that old for you.

Nike 1:1 Just Do It.

It's been done. There's a local guy here that built one using an ex Scotty Cannon Pro-Modified body. I'll post a pic of it later when I get home from work.
