Wheelbase question???

[ratrodney]

Hey Rat rod lovers!

Cant remember and feel free to post the link if there was....But Im wondering wat the wheelbase on everyones rydes is???

Mine is gonna be about 144 inches long. No biggie since the frame is sturdy enuff to handle a nuclear blast. lol

This pic is were it sets now, but the wheels in back will be moved back a little farther. Just curious??? RR

That's pretty long. Don't plan on making any U-turns.
Mine was 124" or so.

X2 on that. Hope you have a ten acre field to turn it around in...

 

[cycledog]

...113"

 

[Gastrick]

106" on my coupe


90" on my Anglia


The next project 34 Ford Tudor will be 112"

 

[sneakysnake]

112" on mine

110" on mine. I had it at 106 but decided the rear wheels needed to be moved back to look right. 144 seems pretty long and with that old truck axle it will take a big circle to make a U turn as mentioned.

137". Someday I'll get around to dropping it to the ground where it belongs. I'm just way to patient.

My next project will also be 112"...'34 Ford.

LOL

I dont care bout u turns. Just looking as bad arse as I can!!! Im using a 1 ton dually rear with huge semi rear tires so as long as I can turn in the usual manner (malls, parking lots, right on red) Im kool with it. RR

120" is working for me , as long as it is porportinal SP and looks good , wheel base and wheel location can make or break the overall look .

174!! ok so it is still stock and not rat rodded yet![

That truck looks just right the way it is. I love those 9 foot beds, have my eye on just such a truck.

119 on my F100

125 for my Olds

It all depends how tight you can get the wheels to crank.

I have one now that is 134". Handles just fine.

Hey Woodman

I have one now that is 134". Handles just fine.

That must be the '39 Ford. Last I measured the '23 T, it looked about 117".
