after switching to a spring behind setup, I needed to roll it outside to look at it. its a bit of a pain because my driveway is steep, but I have a small winch to help. cardboard bed to visualize. I think I like it so far, now to setup the pedals and steering. It's going to have a heavy rake on...

inspiration, I stare at these a lot.

I still have the '38 flathead, going to take it apart one day to see if it is any good.

I am doing RHD just for fun. I went to Japan and all of the american hot rods there are left hand drive, so I thought I'd do the opposite lol.

still working Doesn't look like much progress, but I'm still going. my garage is crowded. have to move a bunch of stuff just to start working. busted the old tires off the wheels. this is harder than it looks. woodys wheel works mounted the new coker tires for me. Donor car, my old 71...

someone on the hamb slipped them over old ford drums for the look with just a little bit of brake lathe work to make them fit. ended up looking pretty good.

speedway 4" drop kit with hairpins, suicide perch, '40 juice brakes

I don't name anything of mine. My dogs are lucky they had a name when I got them, otherwise they would probably just be "dog", and "other dog"

cool, the garage is getting a much needed cleaning now. making a plan to get my donor camaro brought over from storage so I can steal the drivetrain out of it. and going to do some welding on the chop to finish the gaps. Just needed some motivation to do stuff, thanks fellas.

Build a frame from rectangle tubing to your specs. I found that saving an old frame and z'ing it on both ends is way more work and money than if I had just started with new steel. That or buy a bare frame from speedway and build from there.

Ok so at the moment I have $0 to invest in my rat. The frame is roller status with the cab just sitting on the frame. Anything I can do in the meantime to make progress without spending money? Maybe Im just feeling lazy because I have "builders block"?

nice work! and only 5 days to heal? you wolverine or something?

35 ford pickup cab, 38 ford frame, 71 camaro rear, 70 chevy truck engine, and 94 ford ranger leafs so far

I remember reading about that in a sci-fi novel when I was a kid, and now it is reality. cool stuff!

mustang 2 subframe/suspension conversion with disc brakes is an easy one, but not so cheap. you could also clip it with a f body or g body clip if you can find one cheap.

so far during my build, the worst part is me changing my mind on things. it gets more expensive every time.

my 35 ford will be 110"

not too bad, I have seen plenty worse than this
