Newbie from Southern Ohio

[Dhamblin]

I used to love washing/ waxing my cool car and watching it shine, but the stress of it all really sucked. I took notice of all the fun the Rat Rod guys were having driving and experimenting with their rides. I finally found me one to call my own. She's a 1950 F1 on a S10 chassis with a 350/350 set up. I don't plan on doing much with the exterior. I am looking for wheel /tire ideas and interior ideas.

Welcome - Dayton here as well. Good looking truck but you are right, the wheels suck. Can't go wrong with some steelies and poverty caps...

 

[Sam_Fear]

Welcome to RRR! Agreed - the wheels gotta go. Cool truck otherwise. What's the interior look like?

Welcome to the site.

 

[Dhamblin]

Thanks for the warm welcome

Thanks all. The interior is just as patina'd as the exterior. I like the steelie wheels. Thinking of experimenting with some big mags out back and steelies in front?

Thanks. I got the car as is, so I have no pics of the build. I think I will see if the guy I got from has some. I would like to see what it started like myself!

If your gonna do mags on back see if you can find some slotted Americans or some other vintage mags. my 2 + the others 2 and you have about 12 cents

You have just the right amount of chrome ,door handles/grill that a set of mags would look good.I had a patina truck like yours and tried alot of combinations and ended up with chrome full moon hubcaps,really made the truck.Vintage hubcaps are cool also imo. Wides in the back,thins in the front,chrome.Do what you feel looks best,you'll know......

 

[philobeddo]

Decided/found any wheels yet?
