    newbie from Ohio

     



    Just saying Hi. From Akron, Ohio. Just scored a 41-46 Chevy cab,doors & hood. Lookin' to do the rat rod thing. I've built several "contemporary" style '70's muscle cars. Now I want to switch it up a little and turn some heads with rust & muscle !!

    Welcome to the forum. I'm building a little Dodge bobber truck like you describe, I like the look of these.

    On that drag racing show "Pass Time" the other night one guy was racing a cool little truck like that, done rat rod style. He distressed the paint by sanding it down to expose a different color underneath, and it generally looked really good.

    Post some pictures as you go along with your build.
