31 nash rat 4dr

[boostedcleveland]

well i figured i might as well start my build on here.here goes,
31 nash 4dr sedan. i am going to keep it a 4dr so the whole family can ride. was going to cut it down but decided with the help of my wife lol to leave it a 4dr with the suicide back doors. i have the frame built 2x3 tubing. going four link fab 9 in rear. going with coilovers on all four corners. powerplant is a 393'' ford cleveland with twin 70mm turbos. yes it will be for the track also. i got pics will get them loaded in a few of the progress. long way to go but it will be worth it i think. well atleast my 5 year old thinks so.

Working on getting body to line up so I can brace it all off and build some supports in it. Hope I can then put the cage in it. Been a headache trying to get all the panels to line up I didn't have anything to go by.. but just eye view

Did you get the grill too?

Nashes are cool looking cars!

 

[boostedcleveland]

nope i wish i did. i was building a mustang to run in the 275 drag radial class but got burnt out. guy came in made me a offer on the stang so it was gone. always wanted to build a ratrod so i thought this was my opportunity. i've built several bagged trucks and cars and also several mustangs, so this is a little different direction. but it is fun. my 5 year old boy absolutely loves ratrods. hopefully i'll get some more pics tomorrow.
