'52 Dodge Rat Rod...Gathering Parts!

[Garage-Bound]

Just wanted to post a drawing of my build concept my friend, Mike drew today. Also, having a relative going to the wrecking yard tomorrow to see if the Winnebego dually with disc brakes is still available. If it is, he's going to put a deposit down on it and I will go after it this weekend. Once I have the rear end in my garage, I can start planning the frame around it. Plan on using 2 X 3" squire tubing that is 3/16" walled. I will purchase 24' of this material from my work for $75.00. The rear end is set to cost me $300.00 and I am going to see if the old man will throw in a set of leaf springs. If not, they can surely be found somewhere else.

Found a man in Ohio that may be interested in the original flat head six and fluid drive transmission...possibly the rear end and the radiator. If I can get it running, maybe those parts will bring $800.00. This will help in the build.

Cannot upload either picture of the dually rear end for some reason.

Make sure they don’t exceed the size limit, if they do, open them in Paint and re-size them. [P

I'd take a quick width measurement on the rear end, some of the motorhomes had insane widths which might be tough to fit
