42 Chevy First Rat Rod

I am about to get started on my first Rat Rod . I have spend a couple hours a night for the past week cleaning my shop so I could make room for the cab and frame . I have to also make a small hooch for my Electraglide . I plan on using the stock frame . I will move the cab back on the frame 12-18 inches . I am taking 6 inches from the bottom of the cab . Most parts are be took from my 78 Chevy Scottsdale . Here is the start picture and a simple photo cropping of what I will hope it will look like . I also chop the top about 4 inches
