I am thinking about building a rat rod out of a 1965 ford truck frame and a 1950 dodge truck cab and I am looking for help with ideas for my project. I am a teenager with not too muck money so I am on a pretty tight budget.

Start with a tape measure. Is that Ford front suspension that double axle thing? Welcome to the board.

That "double axle thing" would be Twin I Beam front suspension!!

If it's a 65 4x2 it's a twin I beam. 64 Was the last straight axle.

How about some pics of what ya got?

Welcome to RRR! Like said before just take your time and collect parts as you go and start putting it together as you get the parts.
