Almost Done

#1

Post by K_trip »

This project didn't take long to throw together, but it's not done yet.

Staring with a '68 Datsun 520 that had been wrecked, the very front sheet metal was cut off the cab.
Actually, that's about all that's left of the Datsun. The rest was too far gone, so time for RatRod action.
That's a grill off of an old International - it looks KILLER doesn't it? :thumbs:

It sits on a S10 frame, since there was one available, and it's powered by a Ford 302 V8 :twisted:

Yep - the stacks are for real ... Look Out - It's a driver now. :fu:
I think I will go fender-less, so I can roost those who follow to close!

Awesome. When are you installing the tag axle and steam locomotive cattle guard?
When the only tool you have is a hammer every problem starts to look like a hippy.

Maybe all that seller needs a babe that's into the Rat Fink scene to sell it?
