Looks good. Any more engine compartment shots. I know it's taboo around here, but I'm not a big fan of chrome.

I need to take some more current ones. These were prior to having my inner fenders in and my AC hoses ran.

This is my first post, love the trucks on here. This is my 56, not nearly as clean a most on here, but my kind of rat rod bagged tri five. Body is mounted, bed is just sitting there. It's on a 96 s10 bagged frame stretched and widened. Planning to put a 12 valve cummins and a 5 speed in it soon. Here's a couple of pics.

:hi2:nice trucks... Question??? are most of these on S10 frames? or can you slam using Original frame. im looking into building a 49 chevy aswell. :truck: thanks

panelrodder81 06-26-2013 11:14 AM

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59
 
You can totally slam on the original frame. Seen it many times. My new frame will be nearly slammed (1" from running boards to the ground) when totally aired out.

Now that my truck is 99% complete, I decided to take some more pics. It is all cleaned up. Heading to a small car show in the morning with my youngest son.

young rodder - You know I LOVE LOVE LOVE your truck, right? I only make this comment looking for any small thing that MIGHT improve it.

Have you considered either polished alternator and AC compressor, OR gloss black powder coat them? I think it might be a dress-up improvement.

Absolutely NO criticism of your totally *****in truck meant.

You know it is pretty darn good when that is all you can pick out.:metal:

What do you guys do about gas tanks when dropping when you drop trucks that low? I've got to get rid of the tank in the cab of my '57 and it looks like the aftermarket tanks hang pretty low. Move the floor up and the tank with it?

Dan-

No worries. Yes, at some point I might get back into the engine compartment and clean/change somethings. I can tell you I'm more apt to go away from shinny parts at this point. My friend just build a serious pro touring Nova with an LS7 motor and his engine bay is all black. I really like this look. I won't take mine this far but I would like to incorporate more black into the engine bay. At times I think my truck has too many shinny parts on it as it is. That is also why I didn't continue the theme in the engine bay.

It really depends on your application. My truck uses a car frame (g-body) front and rear and I used a car gas tank and retrofitted it for my application.

I would ask other people with 55-57 trucks to see what they used.

Good luck
