Josh's 35 Chevy Rat Rod Maiden Voyage

This is a video of my 1935 Chevy 2 Door Sedan leaving the shop for the first time under its own power. We are still not finished but Bump (the guy driving) was itching to do a burnout. It has a suidide front suspension, suicide doors, chopped 3 inches, channeled another 2 or 3 inches, airbag suspension, 3 trumpet air horn and custom steering components (connecting rods on steering wheel and pitman arm), 350 motor with camel back heads, 3 duece intake w/ Rochester carbs, 350 trans. and a ford 9 inch w/ 390 gears. Still working on sheet metal and a few other improvements (velocity stacks, etc).

The rear-end is a Ford 9". It is the widest one we could find... I think it is out of an old station wagon. It has approx 60" from drum to drum and has the original axles with a 5x5.5" bolt pattern. I still had to get wheels with the maximum backspacing and STILL only BARELY clears the body when lowering it! Hope this helps.

A 35 Chevy is what my Grandfather used to race in. I wish I had it now.

What rear end do you have in this Chevy? I have a 35 Chevy master with a Firebird rear end it is too short my wheels do not come outside the body like yours. Love the car!

great rat rod looks sweet,but the headlights are to high makes it look like a bug.

This was a hoot! Your friend, "Bump," what a character, really got a kick out of the big smile on his face at the end.
