A bit of Rat Rod History: :D:D

Modified CCSR's, known as the Snow Rats, were used as ad hoc fast travel vehicles during the Battle of the Bulge.

Welcome, nice truck. Like to see more pics. of the front suspention. Thanks!
i will take some pictures of just the suspension next time i get it out it was the hardest part of building the truck for me to do,it was a lot of trial and error to get it right. its a basic design with the spring across the front,i used two trailer springs thanks
