RAT ROD FRIDAYS!!!!!

Since it's actually Friday this time, I'll post this little 29 pickup I built back in 2001. Monogram body from the parts box, 32 frame from Revell kit, 49 flathead, scratchbuilt headers, floorboard, seat, fuel filter, carb breather, inside door panels, and firewall. In retrospect I would have dropped the floorboard and made a tunnel for the driveshaft. It's kinda un-drivable with the floorboard so high.

Steve, love the rat, the scallops really make it!

Travis, that rat is awesome in every way, kind of funny how many details are very similar to my own '29 rat build. I must have seen it in 2009 or 2010 and absorbed some of the ideas.

Chris, yours is way cool! It would be cool to see them sitting side by side. It's possibe you could have seen this build before. It was published in one of the mags when it was built. looking back on the photos, I'm wondering if the rear end is correct. I know I ZZZZZed it heavily but cant remember which parts were used.
