Wow Cookie the Opel is looking awesome! [cl I think it's been mentioned before but your fabbing is top notch [ Love the pic with your son, time with Dad in the garage is something the both of you won't ever forget. Love the last pic of the car too, it's getting a nice old timey 'Gangster' look to it..........you might need to by a 'Zoot Suit' for cruising

Thanks, Snake Farm.
This is all the result of years of watching people like you on forums like this.
So it's nice to hear that the people who inspire me like it too.

Exceptional job, Cookie! It's really cool to see a rod built from an unfamiliar bodystyle like this. You guys have some great looking iron to work with over there.

Thanks guys, I appreciate that very much.
As I mentioned before, this is my first time I build a RatRod so it's all new to me.

Perfect! A chop with fenders is classic.

That is the '58 Opel Blitz from a buddy of mine,its not a panel but the backwall of the cab has been set two meters back and filled whit sheet metal

The comments at the car show were very good,they liked it very much.
It was the oldest car at the show

Yes,it's a chassis from a LDV/Daf 400 British Leyland with a 2500 4 cil. turbo diesel engine.
The front of the car and rear fenders are Opel Blitz and the cab is 50 something Chevy.
