dang it man !!!
several years ago i bought 2 rusty old chevy trucks with good 454 motors and running gears with the intention of actually doing a chevy car .. i wanted to build a 70 camaro tribute car in honor of a long passed away friend who influenced my love of all things hot rod .. i looked for years trying to find a good candidate but never found anything within my budget.. i`m not paying 10 thousand $ for a rust bucket body .. but anywho i recently sold all the chevy stuff to a buddy then come on this site now and see what some of you folks are doing with these rat style rides and think " man " thats the coolest thing i have seen in years .. but now iv`e nuthing to work with .. but all is not lost .. i would gut my 351 pinto in a minute to build an old piece of rust and there is plenty aroundiv`e used up all my sick days at work .. can i call in dead ?

I just painted a 49 Chevy stake side very similar to that one. Came out great considering I had to remove the previous 4 blue paint jobs.......Instead of being part of the problem, be part of a successful solution.

Love them Rats
The last time I mentioned that I was building a Rat rod style F100 I got my butt chewed off......I was given a backyard education on the definition that a Rat Rod is nothing more that a unsafe and dangerous ride that hazardous to everyone around it.........Well, I got over it and sold that truck to Anders in Sweden and started another Rat Rod Hot Rod. Yes it's safe....proper welds, disk brakes, IRS ect.
