1949 Panel Rat update

Well I might steer the Panel Rat now and the engine is even in it, all fits...................
Just need a few adjustments and a support & should be good to go.

Thanks for the input from the rat website..........
Will be asking more questions soon.....................

NOW for the driveshaft...............
1967 chevy rear end to a 350 auto tranny. Of coarse it must be stortened.

mmmm, maybe I can stretch the rat a little[S..............

Later,
Jerry

Sharp angles on the steering joints. Hope those aren't binding on you. Looking for the rollout pix next.

I hope you don't have issues turning that baby!! Other than that, I think we need pics of the rest of the machine!!!

Steering Universals

I hope you don't have issues turning that baby!! Other than that, I think we need pics of the rest of the machine!!!

The "U" joints are in a better angle than pictured, and I still may have to move the steering column over some, time will tell. Putting the front-end back on so I can get the radiator set, and move it outside, too much water for the garage.....................more pictures then.

Thanks for your input.....................
