george 53 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 WoW Jo, it looks like it'll be a monster so far! really like the suicide doors.Where'd the engine come from? Is it resin? Either way it looks like a REALLY good start! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjadud0667 Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 Here is my current truckster project. It will be a rat though not old school, but mean n nasty. that looks pretty cool so far . i prolly wont make the doors like u have it because im not to good with models ive only done like 4 or 5 so far .. im prolly going to make a really chopped top rat rod .. something like this maybe http://farm1.static.flickr.com/19/110652906_308a0fbc66.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet isnt it To give you some info i think its either a 30 or a 32. It is channeled over the frame. Is chopped. Probably z'ed frame in the rear and looks like it has air ride because you cant drive that thing that low. there is another site car site called "the hamb" but their cars arre not rat rods, they are traditional hot rods but they are close, but much cleaner. If you want to go to that site let me know and i will post the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
