New from Portland, OR
Hi, I am 17, so I am bringing new life to the sport. Between me and my famialy we have lots of project rigs. I have a 1932 Ford AAB 1 1/2 ton stake side truck that is almost complete. I have drove it down the street before !!! I also have a 27' T bucket fiberglass body on a custom I think rolling chassis. I also have a 73' Dodge D-100 with a big block 400 that might be come a choped up rat rod.You can never have too many projects. Know I just have to work on them

Jawman,
Nice looking truck. Is it powered by the original engine?

thanks everyone. the truck is powered by the original 1932 4 banger model B engine. it is almost 100% all complete. I wish I did have a better shop. wait I do have a 28'x40' garage, but I have a lot of tools, shelving, and a few cars in there so there is no space for my truck
I don't know exactly how I want the truck to end up, but I do know I want to ''Hot rod'' the engine a little. I would like it to look like an early hot rod, but in a 1 1/2 ton. the problem is I have all the stock sheet metal and the body is in nice shape. if it was a little bit more beet up I would leave the fenders off and make a suicide front end with the stock axle, chop and Chanel the body, and maybe even Z the frame or something to give it a different look with a big viser. I would like air bags too.
