My 1937 Plymouth Rat Rod project. I traded my Sportster for it, the cab was already chopped and front and rear in place but not finished. Cab was not attached to frame and no wiring or fuel system in place. Just like I like em. I have a 383 Mopar for it, with a 727 trans. Original rear end and tube front axle. Wiring harness, relays, and fuse panel will be mounted in outside of cowl, under a door taken off a Air Force APU unit. Coors keg gas tank, old Chrysler taillights, fold up ignition switch and light switch panel. Exhaust, carburetion, headlights and windshield still up in the air. Attachments:

Ya I didnt realize who you were until read your other posts, I read this one first cause projects are cooler then into posts. I thought a forum like this would be a good idea, but its been slow growing for a while. 75 members but not many view it often or post much. I think in time it will be a good resource for the local crowd.

Worked on it all weekend, hopefully the engine is in for the last time, rear shocks are on still going to need airbags in the rear though. Bed is mounted, grill and radiator mocked up but I hate it......going to try and give the grill a lot of rake this weekend, may ultimately have to buy a different radiator. Mounted my Edelbrock Torker and still out on the carb air scoop. Attachments:
