Pim Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) this was originally going to be a panel van but I had a complete change of ideas to turn it into a rat rod the plans are to shorten and decrease the width of the body and mount it onto a Hilux chassis with modded suspension and escalade rims. haven't got much of an idea for motor yet but I have got a supercharged Pontiac motor lying around................

Pim Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 well today I finished narrowing the body and started work on the engine which will be the motor from a '72 gto with a Chevy trans and most likely a blower but we will see pics later on today it's near 2 in the morning and I need sleep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pim Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 Sorry for the long time between updates but I have had camera problems. I have finished the floor and firewall using only scrap pieces of plastic next on the list is drivetrain and interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pim Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 Managed to get a little progress on the interior today it is only a rough mock up but it gives an idea on how the interior will look. I also finished the trans and engine mounts for the supercharged 455. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pim Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 Working on this interior I have used the floor from a '69 mustang and seats from the parts box the dash was cut from a foxbody dash and I have started to work on the fuel tank and system. I wanted this to have a rough feel about it so I have made some "welds" and am really happy how they turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pim Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Slowly finishing up on this thing I have painted the body I really like the combination of the black and gold following the body lines.the engine is a 1\25 straight four out of a mustang with a few V8 parts from the box and an intake trumpet made out of a pen.
