    Have you looked real close in your picture? A GHOST IS PUMPING YOUR RIG'S DIESEL!!!!!! Did it pay? Your rig looks like a great big Model T with no cab. Got any more pictures from the front and side? Glad you got up and running after some set backs. Mark

    Rat Deuce project 1

    Sorry you had the set back on your progress on the Rat Rod project. Your idea beats the low riders with military rubber stuck at each end. I have seen Jeeps, M35, m37 and Korean war 6x6 slammed to the ground with tires sticking out both ends. I have not got excited and got out the cutting torch...

    I like the shifter box. Hope it is not a shin eater like my M925a2 shifter with pto winch controls that is right where my leg wants to occupy.

    You have me stumped as what you are up to? I built a SAR truck (some assembly required) 1946 International KB-5 chassis, body built from 2" pipe, dog kennel tubing, bed frame angle iron, garage door track and sheet metal from local auto body stamping plant. Flat head 6, 4 speed and 2 speed...
