Rat Rod build Part 6, Germany

This is my 1930 Model A Ford Coupe that has been chopped 4 inches, channeled 6 inches and runs a 1992 BMW V12. I stripped all the electronics off the engine and it now runs a homemade stainless steel intake with 4 Rochester 2G Carbs, homemade Lakes style headers and two Chevy HEI distributors mounted to each camshaft bank.

damn dude thats a sexy car about how much did it cost to build

[Karolilalu]

@zacman3577

Under $6000 grand total. Everything is built in the garage so that kept costs down. The most expensive was the rims since they are 16" This along with the wheels were $2000. The orig, car cost me $7200, but once I pulled the body, I sold the rest of the car (frame, engine, trans, wheels, fenders etc) and got around $8000 (6000 Euros) on German E-Bay. Engine came from my donor car that costs $200.

Clean wiring is a nice example for inspiration. The sunroof control and mirror mount area comes off looking real tidy. Ultimate clean job on the steering. Electric cutout and sunroof, very nice. Skull details, sweet. From your clean wiring, rake and chop.... this gets my head swiming with ideas. This build just inspires, great job.

awesome build. Nice hide on the booster, split dash is better than period correct, intake and exhaust-mighty fine and have a good match look, Great job on keeping the clock but vamping it with new guts. Fuel tank...me want one, looks elegant and tough which makes a nice combo. Interior looks fine, clean and custom but not crazy luxo.
