41-46 hot rod?
Still considering my buddy`s 46 chevy project but I think I want to do something like this,
http://www.ebay.com/itm/RAT-ROD-Z-FR...-/280999576484 Dont know if I`d go that big on the tires but I like the early-mid 30`s grill set up. Are they hard to find? Do they make aftermarket ones? I really like the chopped bed too. Just looks mean. Anyone got anything like this? Post some pics if you got them.

Re: 41-46 hot rod?
I'm not 100% sure but I don't think the eBay guy is the guy who built that truck.
Here's the original build and I think he sold it: http://www.ratrodsrule.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22220 The plans are for 2x4 and that truck was built with 2x3 I think. I haven't read this whole build thread in a while, but you might want to go through it to be sure it's the actual builder who's selling the plans.

I just noticed that the builder has a link to his website Hughsratshak, so I was wrong, it is the same guy on eBay. His name is Gus, so I'm not sure where Hugh comes in?

Re: 41-46 hot rod?
Thanks. I`m not sure where Gus comes in, lol, but I have contacted Hugh and have been chatting with him a bit. Pretty cool guy. Gus may be his screen name? Not sure. I clicked on the first link you listed but not able to view the pictures. Looks pretty straight forward, alot of measuring though. I`ve done a MII set up but never a full chassis. Should be fun s hell though.

I think it takes a day or so for them to actually activate everything in a new account
