Hello from the LAND OF ENCHANTMENT

[I-R-POPS]

Hello RRR members,

Found this site while killing time and looking for info on building a rat rod.
I retired from the 6am to 8pm rat race after too many years and I'm finally in a position to do what I want to for a change.
I love the look and the individual expression involved in a rat rod.
So here we are in the process of starting this build.
My grandsons (ages 7 & 9) think this is the best idea I have ever had. We will
have a blast I'm sure.
Starting off with a 48? Dodge Lighthouse cab. Anyone tell me how to identify
Year with no ID plates or #s?

pilothouse dodge trucks are fun, plan a couple extra hours in you're day when it's done. lots people never seen one and will talk to you about it.

that's half the fun of having something different.
