I think you've under-estimated your budget dude...What's the cost so far?

[1964corvan]

uhhhh no i only spent about $600 and i got most the stuff now

i think your truck will be on fire from the quadrajunk on the 350 out of the impala

fuck yeah! its typhlosion! i haven't played with pokemon shit in years!!! but this particular one i have always loved cause its freaking badass just like my rat rod and creates fire just like my truck will do! and looks killer like my truck will!

Fellow rodder,hate to ruin your money plans buy no way will1.5 k build a SAFE ROD i.e. will not expode ,will stop reasonably quick, good tires,seat with a floor and tunnel that the broken driveshaft from the burnout won't break your legs in 14 places ! The 3 to 5 k is more like it. Building one myself , figured 2.5 k begged borrowed and stole and there is no way it's getting done for that , at least to be a sorta safe driver. Axles drilled ,driveshafts shortened, tranny adapters kill the budget!

How old are you ? :D

@jzero32 Well,if you are starting from scratch that might be true but he stated he already has tons of parts to start out with. Only he knows what all he has right now so I guess that makes it a little hard for others to decide how much he needs to invest in his project. Stop trying to discourage people. Everyone is always trying to rain on everyones parade and they did it to me too. I have one of the coolest rat rods around and have a total of 2g's in it and drive it every day!

I like your honesty as I am a newbie myself. I found a 1927 4DR. Model T, touring body ,grill,fenders etc.for $500.Thought drop on my $500 1985 LWB S10 frame,then bag it= poof done! After researching,found out the "cheap rat build" was NOT so CHEAP. Frame wouldn't work and I don;t know shiz about all mechanics needed for a project that big,the space needed,safety items for old car to pass inspection,and the money involved is WAY over $1k (even for a crap-rod).
