first time rat builder from PA

[starquestjoe]

whats goin on R R R ! Names Joe and i picked up my first rat to build. Its a 1929 desoto Model K 2 door sedan. from what i have seen on the web, the 2door is pretty rare bird. no matter to me tho it was cut up pretty good when i got it. my plans are lay frame, bagged rear, early hemi with 2x4's, 9" rear. after i gettin miles on her, i think over the winter i may chop it 2 more inches and section it 3 inches. its chopped now and still has big windows

welcome, I'd love to see more pics... I'm feeling like if you lower that top, with the width and length of that roof you might put it out of proportion... kinda like over chopping 60s-70s trucks...
