almost done haven't posted in almost two years and it's almost done. Won best of show at this year's Church of Chop at the Iron Horse Saloon. and the new project...

Thought about it but it's right in the corner of the window and wouldn't be able to have a lower hinge.

If you inflate the rear bags all they way they open about half way, can't use them but made them open just for the hell of it. I wanted to be able to use them but I needed room behind the axle for fuel tank, air compressor, and suspension valves....oh well

128" is the current wheel base. Factory was 103" and I moved the rear axle back about 10" so that should be about 15" of stretch for the front, or somewhere around there.

Thanks!.. Has a 12 valve Cummins in it, that's why so many gauges..lol

here's mine...not done yet!

Thanks for all the kind words! Sorry I haven't updated lately. Combination of trying to get the always broken boat in the water, playing with the new truck, and it's way too hot to be welding down here in July and August. Been buttoning up a lot of the small items. Just made another steel run...

Don't make the mistake I did, putting power steering on my Cummins build project. I thought I would need a reverse steer box so I used a Chevy Astro box, made the frame hooked everything up and......it steered backwards! After hours of staring at it turns out it was because I have the drag...

Thanks for all the great comments everyone!

Thanks! headlights, fuel shutoff, wipers, etc Knobs on the right are for HVAC......I know some people would probably kick me off some forums for putting A/C in a rat but the temperature routinely gets above 100 where I live with humidity that is insane! I want to be able to drive it year round...

Thanks for all of the positive comments! Car is going to be white, not sure what color to paint the air deflector, its currently brown (original color it think)

Thanks, Just barely enough room to fit everything I need...lots of measuring and planning with a few beers to help. It's a vintage air ac/heat/defrost. I know that's sacrilegious to some but I live on the coast of South Carolina and plan on driving it all the time, temps around 100 with high...

Rustoleum Hammered Copper out of a can, stuff takes a little work to get the technique down to make it look right but it's pretty bad A$$ looking when done.

Thanks for all of the comments, still not sold on the intercooler tubes up over the radiator....seemed like a good idea but now that it's done I think it makes the front of the car look too high in relation to the cowl, especially once the chop is done. May have to do some reworking..
