Hey there, here is my rat rod project, a 52 Willys pickup. This was my grandfather's hunting truck back in the day. It's been sitting in our woods for something like 30 years. Overall it is a pretty solid truck, rockers are pretty much done for and the floors are rough but I plan on channeling it anyways.
My overall plan is to use the original frame from the back of the cab forward with a Z in front of the firewall. Also plan on bagging it on all four corners, possibly using the stock 4wd front axle, without the internals, stuck out in front of the grille. I would like to do some sort of diesel engine, probably a Detroit 6.2 or 6.5.
Make sure you wear your PPE when cleaning out mouse nests! haha
Mouse motel!
All clean! Also, notice the fiberglass floor patches.
Just an idea for the wheelbase.
