Re: Project "Black Betty" (bam-A-lam)

About 3 months or so ago my dad bought a rat rod. It belonged to a guy he works with, & the guy was in the process of moving. He got tired of messing with it, so he decided to put it up for sale. Dad told him to get it running & he'd buy it. Well, they changed the fuel pump & had it running. After dad bought it, it began having some issues again. It's not getting fuel to the injectors for some reason, but it'll run if you pour fuel down the throttle body. It's sitting at his friend Mark's house until they get it figured out. It's a 30's Olds body that was chopped up & put on a '94 Dodge Dakota chassis/drivetrain. It needs a little TLC for sure. Dad said he'd like to build a wood bed for it, & it needs a seat setup. He said he wasn't fond of the wooden roof either & would rather have metal. I'm not sure how much money he'll actually put into it, as it's not something he plans to keep.

Here's a few pics:
