Yes, it is a big project. All that was available was the cab and hood pieces. And nothing else but rust. Lol. Thats why I decided to rat rod it.

Good luck. Should be a sweet looking truck once you're done. Just started a project myself.

Whenever you leave behind failure that means you're doing better if you think everything you've done has been great you're probably dumb

Hey ShopShark, saw your 46 posted on Stovebolt a couple of years ago.
Question, what size wheels and tires are you running on your 46.
thanks,
Bill

Newbie tip: Shop shark is just a meaningless title, my actual username is directly above that.

15x10 rear with 31x10.5, 15x8 front. Don't remember the tire size. 215/65 maybe?

I thought I would add my project in HERE and also HERE and here

The truck had a great patina as it was covered in carpet early in life and it all rotted off leaving the glue patterns , the bed and fenders are the same , but I do not have a matching hood ohwell

It will be powered by a 475 ford engine / auto trans from a 1958 Edsel

I put it away for the winter and am finishing up my 53 panel , the other 66 truck and my 1929 A street rod truck .. they are INSIDE my shop ...

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

Same here.
In fact I can't get either Recycled Rods or Neverdones links to work.
