This build uses Lindberg 34 ford pickup cab and box. Shortend 34 box, and has been notched out for transverse leaf spring suspension Used the 32 ford frame from Revell kit, modified the rear frame to except the transverse leaf spring set-up from Revell 29 ford pickup kit. Front frame rails were shortend and pinched to except the 32 ford radiator shroud. Used quick change rearend assembly form 40 willys coupe kit, alot of kit bashing envolved. this picture shows top view of transverse spring and modifications to frame. tire set comes from 29 ford ratrod kit. The wheels are form my parts box. Origin unknown, feed back on wheels would be helpful. Mock up of truck and chasis isn't the actual ride height, just wanted to give you an idea of my ideas on this build. The paint job I will be shooting Tamiya semi-gloss black. Chasis will be same color. The engine will be the 34 ford motor that is supplied in the kit. It will be topped off with a blower from parts box. Exaust is going to be scratch built zommies made from aluminum tubing. Comments and feedback are welcome.
