This is a very heavy duty chassis kit that cost over $1,200. Due to the large engine. This was a very expensive build and just about everything is new except the body.From windshields to grill to window regulators, Guages, seals, stainless bed strip, wood kit for bed, all lights and more. This is not a backyard build by a first timer. I have been building car, most show cars for many years and just needed to build my version of a rat rod. But now as everthing I build it's time to go so I can start my next build.

Time and fabrication taken done to keep battery where it was put from the factory. Under the passengers feet in the floor of the cab. Also bed was not hacked up to lower truck as most do. All suspension lowering that way truck can still go to the lumber yard and work as a the truck was designed to. But with 430 hp under the hood it's a pure patina street rod.

Also the back window that's fogged out around the edges. It's like looking into the this old girls past. Yes she has faded paint with maroon and blue past paint jobs showing threw. Many scratches, dings and Patina but she draws more attention than the show cars and trucks at her very first car show. One old guy told me it was because this old girl shows her life flaws and hard work just like we do. She's real, and now I understand all the attention with rat rods. Now if I can only figure out how to go to the store without five or six people stopping me ?Only kidding I love it.
