Grips the road, corners on rails, chopped, channeled and low dollar. If you get this done please send me a build sheet as I haven't been able to do it in the 68 years I've been building street rods. Choosing a pickup automatically penalizes the grip and handling and do you KNOW what channeling involves? Only the floor stays the same and everything else has to be re-positioned, modified, or scratch built---not a weekend project. The only easy chop is if you go old enough the windshield, top pillars, and rear window area are completely vertical---think Model A. How much can you do yourself because if any has to be subbed out it's NOT going to be low dollar. We have done a couple Atlas engine conversions and it is a good engine engine that a turbo will really wake it up to the tune of 450hp. The ones we used retained all the electronics including the drive by wire accelerator but several are working on a "dumb" version with carb(s) and distributor. Do a search on this and good luck.
