I built this thing about two years ago, when the reissued '41 kit with the crappy custom wheels and the 'slingshot' two carb adapter was released.

I pretty much took the '41, and chopped away everything that wasn't a hot rod. Though it's a Chevy, it's powered by a 392 Chrysler Hemi (AMT Parts Pack with '25 AMT Model T Lincoln Headers), and painted in Ford colors, and the whole mess is supported by Lincoln tall wide whites.

Like I said, I built it a few years back, but juging from comments on the Fotki page, e-mails I've recieved, and what people who see it in person tell me, it's one of my best efforts.

Very Nice....I like the under-slung front suspension. ;)

Evidently, at least one other modeler did as well- while I was building this one, I saw another '41 Chevy pickup rat rod with the same setup in the other magazine! I stole the idea from a mid '20's Dodge roadster featured in Hot Rod a few years back.
