my '49 Ford

[Dirtheadz]

So, akaFrankCastle has informed me that I need to put my rat rod I'm building on. Not sure if this is the correct place to put it, but here it is. Its a '49 Ford truck, chopped 3-1/2" and the body is sectioned 7". I built the frame with 2x4x.188, Z'd 12" front and 15" rear. Has a 9" out of a Granada (spelling?). 351 cleveland/ FMX trans.'35 truck grill. I fabbed the bed sides/ floor boards and some of the interior panels with a home made bead roller. Let me know what you think.

Awesome man! Don't you live near Stetson hills?

Yep... Come on by. Gonna brew a "vanilla porter" this week. Sorry the 4 tap Kegerator is completly empty, no more pumpkin ale!

The layout for the wheel base... Notice the cab is sectioned now

The frame, before cutting and sleaving the front holes (FYI... anyone wondering, yes that is a pain in the a$$)

The rearend 3 link setup (ol' skool) with Ballistic axle brackets and heims (rod ends for you young bucks)

Here is some tin work, done with my home-made beadroller & dies. This is the door panel insert and the dash piece.
