Yard Art Model T parts mated to dirt racecar chassis/ RESULT-RPU race rat thing

[skull]

WELL BOYS & GIRLS HERE WE G0 AGAIN-------

this was my yard art, now it'll be [S

l am letting my bored friend who helps us a ton around here who said he needs something to , as he puts it, keep busy between working on all the projects we have to finish. he is major hyper and never slows down and this will be helpful for him and turn some "junk" we have around here into a running/driving rod.[[

the guy l got this pile of T parts from was scrapping them, one man's junk is another man's hot rod

chassis

since the this chassis l got for street legal race car was not used, basically got a better one for what the plan was for the race car, this one will be used here, l got a ton of parts with it and be a shame not to use all the stuff around here to make something cool.

l watch all these "hoarders" who let he parts/cars and other cool things rot into nuthin' l can't do that, she'll be ugly but at least she'll be running around.

0F course a small block chevy and auto trans, hoping to get a 2OOR4 or 7OOR4, and using a dodge truck 8 3/4 rear-end from a 1975 1/2 ton that was parted-out about 5 years ago.

this one will have fenders and a hood, l got six to eight hoods and a bunch of pieces to splice together to make one big hood to cover the front-end, several sets of front fenders and several running boards & pieces for the running boards on this one.

there are 7 or 8 cowls to splice and make one long enough to cover the front dash area.

updates as we get them,

the one thing l need is several old grille shells to make one big one to match the hood lines.

One of my all-time favorites, and yes you should finish it! But just for S&Gs, what are you asking for it?

10.5K, new parts galore, all rust has been removed but needs a new paint job.

progress

decided to go with leaf spring for simplicity, cut a few passenger side bars to get a bench seat in. a little welding and fabbing here & there and soon the body panels will start to be mocked up to give people a ides of how the final product should look.
