New Guy with a 47 Dodge

[Ta2Don]

Hello Guyz and Galz!
Just pulled the trigger on this old Dodge sitting on a S10 frame… I'm currently building a 65 short stepper Chevy C10 and decided that a rat would be my next project… I couldn't pass this one up… It has an Escalade seat, an Ididit column, and an uninstalled Painless harness… No motor or trans… While I continue on my truck project I am gleaning ideas from various rods I see, either locally or out here on the web.

Here's a pic of the project sitting in my friend's shop...[

Hi and welcome to RRR from northern Alberta. There are quite a few guys on this forum that are doing those war-time Dodges, so you should get some ideas from lots of reading. Good Luck.

more pics

Here are a few more pics… and one of the reason I stopped by this shop… I spotted the old 5 window body and dropped in, only to find that the owner of the shop happened to be one of my clients… the 5 window wasn't for sale, but that's how I found the Dodge...

And here's a link to my 65 C10 build… http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=533920
