curt raitz Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) Upcoming NNL West Theme: "Wagons and Wings" Here is what I came up with. Took the body from the '39 Wagon Rod and dropped it on a '41 Chevy Truck chassis, thus replacing the UGLY front end of the Wagon Rod. Dropped a small block in it, lowered the ride height, added whitewalls, part box wheels and "ratted" it up bit. Thanx for lookin' Edited November 27, 2018 by curt raitz duplicate photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis Lacy Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 This is awesome! The truck front end really works yet I don't think I'd have ever thought of it myself. I love the lightly weathered finish and the hubcaps are different in a cool way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Great idea on the front end swap and the ageing looks just right as if it's in constant use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
