My kinda frame...box tubing...not my kinda design, but Ratrods are the builders expression not the spectators...this is why I'm more neutral. How much chop U thinking about...8'' 7''...either way you got a good rat there...Aoha, Keone

@TUTUZGARAGESERVICE I am still up in the air about the chop, at most it would be 3" to 4" max. Thanks1

but why vw rims? old wire wheel steelies would really set it off

[ericksrods]

@cappy6921 . Thanks Cappy! I think it is gonna be cool when is done. FYI: Those are not VW rims, they wide 5's off a 36 ford with adapter plates to fit a 4.5" bolt pattern. I like them with the hub caps on them, It does look kinda stupid right now with the adapters showin. Plus I got them for free! Down the road I may swap out, we'll see.

Dude, that thing is nasty!! I got a '46 ford i want to build. What kind of grille is that?

[ericksrods]

Thanks! It is much further along now than what you see in the vid. The grill is from a 36 ford truck.

Nice , im working on my 37 ford rod , They look close in the build , same frame and mounts , i did a 4" chop and a 383 stroker with a tunnel ram , adding Nos later on ..shes gonna be a runner . Keep the vids going , want to see her run.

This has some serious potential. I hope the rim/wheels will work with the design because it is great to see their flavor. I know you will probably paint later but man I like that 40s green undercoat look. Post us some update shots.
