Re: Rat rod style trucks post em up
No mine are 15 X 8 6 lug wheels. They run a 10.25" cap. The 67-68 3/4 hubcaps looked like this also, so you should be to find them.

Re: Rat rod style trucks post em up
Thanx to all who are posting up pics.
To all of you hung up on the term rat rod, READ Im not calling them rat rod trucks just a rat rod style witch most people will call them a rat rod anyway. I dont like how often its used either, but majority rules. |

Re: Rat rod style trucks post em up
My truck lol. '69 with a flat bed. Multicolor paint. A mean bad engine, see sig. Disc brakes all the way around, rear tank conversion, stock car style wheels. All all the little things. Some day I would like to do it and make it nice. But that requires a lot of money that i dont have... LOL. Right now I am making it what I want and using it as a driver.

Re: Rat rod style trucks post em up
I agree. BTW, I wasn't trying to be an ass, I do like beater trucks. I guess I'm just a little senstive about the rat rod thing.

Re: Rat rod style trucks post em up
AHHH "Sneaky Pete" is the name of the semi rod. Its awesome, I dont remember the engine or trans, but it gets crazy high MPG. 1950 peterbuilt, they used a front axle from a garbage truck, alot of custom work and somewhere around 10-12" chop top. If your into semis and rods its one awesome toy.

Re: Rat rod style trucks post em up
Ok the new direction will be to find a SWB 1/2 ton frame and step side bed. Probably still go with a satin black or a "hot rod flat" and borrow some of the style from this thread. Air bags most likely and not much bling. I still prefer the low buck look rather than too much billet and shiney stuff.
