You build a lot of these type of roadsters, so I'm asking you for some ideas. All I have is the body and nothing else. So if you dont mind throw some ideas at me. ;D

If it was me, I'd put a big tire on the back. A little tire on the front. Mass horsepower engine. Then point it at something a 1/4 mile away and mash the breath out of it. Just an idea. ;D

Dave, I'd consider chopping it farther and opening the top, which of course would require a serious interior build up. Here is another option that I ran across on the Carnut website: Hosted on FotkiMore photos: public.fotki.com/dcfletcher/automotive/coupes/25-27-chopped-t/I agree with Buck, you can't beat Bigs & Littles and big power even if it's a flathead with Ardun Conversions and a S.C.o.T.s blower.

Man Fletch....that's a very cool looking Rod. I think I would paint it if it belonged to me...but...that's the "RAT" style I guess...eh? LOL The wheels look like the wheels in the 30 woody kit...don't they to you too? That would be a very cool build to do Dave....

Still triing to decide on it. That pic would make a cool build but I would have to come up with a lot of parts I dont have to build it. So far I'm thinking of the big rear tires, skinny fronts and a big engine, something like this...................

Hey Dave, I was looking through one of the Artwork folders in my Fotki and came across this one. No idea when I uploaded it but it's pretty cool. Little Hemi from the Ala Kart and '53 Stude wheel covers. Hosted on Fotki
