The body was pretty much trash but the frame was still solid.

Re: Daverods project 66

I could'nt just leave it there. I do have a bunch of parts ready for some paint. Bedsides, hood tailgate and front of the bed. I keep thinking I'm ready then I see a little somthing else. I know it's my first paint job but I want it to be 1/2 way good. I'll be happy if I get the painting done by winter. Over the winter I can work on getting it running.

Re: Daverods project 66

I'm going to use it. Before I die I will build a rat rod. I wish the body was better I would have taken it also.

Re: Daverods project 66

Kewler than mine for sure... The old race car is a little rough. the doors are welded shut, windows are removed and the the opera windows cut out (5 window) . Still has nerf bars, push bar and a full roll cage. You straddle the transmission and it still has a hand clutch.
Primitive race car from the 50"s , but it still a 33 plymouth!!

Still, it is a very Neat race car and will make a Great rat rod if I leave it kinda racey but just barely street legal.

Someday............... It is one of those barn finds you hear about, But it is our barn!!!

Re: Daverods project 66

They all had those kind of roofs. The hot rodders filled them with steel. On some of the sedan roofs they would put a roof from a doaner station wagon, or a van with the ribs.
