That's cool. What is it powered by?

 

[MercuryMac]

Yes very Cool. We will see some more 'Build' pictures, won't we? What power plant?
My next ratrod is going to be a '34 Dodge Brothers, with Dodge power.

[lazarat]

Although I always steered towards the 50's body I am getting more interested in these types of rods. Nice

Not a Dodge, just the hood. Started out as a model A sedan but when I sandblasted it the left quarter an back panel just fell off ! So I made a pickup. Homemade bed an running boards, boat trailer rear fenders, 28 plymouth front fenders, 36 Chevy grill shell chopped 10 inches an homemade insert, model A bumpers, 46 dodge hood (had to use the emblems cuz I forgot to close up the holes before I painted it !) 215 Buick motor, S-10 5spd, 92 eagle talon irs, all sitting on a 87 Toyota pickup chassis that was shortened down to a 89 inch wheelbase, I have no idea what the steering rack is from, a buddy of mine had a pile of racks and I just picked one. LOL

I love the process, it's very cool [cl

If you could fit ! I’m 5’8” 140 lbs an I was all knees an elbows. I traded it 6 yrs ago and it went through a few different owners, then turned up at the Bloomsburg national last year for sale at 24 K.

 

[Bruce R]

I guess somebody didn’t like the skull hood ornament.

 

[MercuryMac]

Whooa! I liked the whole dang thing. I wanted to put a sun-visor on mine so it looks cool like yours. How did you make the grille slats for your insert; I have to do that for mine? I might have to use Plymouth front fenders on mine too, as mine are really rough. Your truck is much like the dream for my truck.
Right on.

I’m having trouble posting

 

[Bruce R]

I’ve typed a long detailed answer to Macs questions 5 stinking times and every time I hit submit it tells me I have to login. I already am, otherwise I couldn’t answer a post. ! Anyway I login again and everything I typed disappears !!

I'm not sure what you're problem is, but I'll tell you what I've experienced...

- I'm always logged in, sort of. Ages ago, I ticked the "remember me" box when I logged in. In that regard, I'm here often enough and I never have to log in because I'm always "remembered".

- I've screwed around too long and I've had my post/pictures evaporate. I don't know what the issue is, but if I preview my post in a reasonable amount of time and keep the cycle alive, the forum keeps my post in memory and I carry on with more blabbering and sometimes, more pictures until I'm done.

I can only surmise, you're "timing out"... the site reloads and your post is lost in cyberspace...
