Vehicle Detail
Recent build and a fanstastic driver. This is a simple traditional rod. It does have all glass and all windows crank in and out smoothly to include windshield. The pop-up vent also works smoothly. You will get plenty of air on you on hot days! I also wired in a 12V 10 Amp ciggarette lighter outlet so that you can plug in a small heater for cool days also. This has all lights including a thirdbrake light I got out of an old school bus which is lined internally with LED's that illuminates the word "STOP" as a third brakelight. This truck is registered, Titled, and inspected here in Mass as a 1940 Chevrolet truck. There will be no registry issues with this Rod. The exhausts are internally baffled and able to be removed when you feel the urge to be loud. I am currently building a 64 Fairlane Gasser and would like to free up some capital to build it further which is why I am selling this one. It has a very unique chassis which is 2 inch round tubing propely gusseted and square. The truck accelerates, steers, and STOPS great. This is why it's not a Rat Rod. It has a speedway radiator 19" fan and is thermostatically controlled. It does not run hot or have problems. The cam is lumpy but provides plenty of vaccuum for the 7 inch power brake unit. I pulled the engine out of a 79 Impala and went through it it does not smoke, choke, cough, or anything. I put a 2200 RPM Stall converter in it to accomodate the Thumpr cam. Please call if you would like additional pictures or would like ot discuss the truck. I have many build pictures. 401-601-0311 Jared Here's detaill on the components that went into the build Tubular Chassis 1961 FORD F100 FRONT AND REAR END Rear end changed to POSI 3:50 Ratio June 2011 Rear wheel cylinders, all 4 drums, and shoes changed June 2011 305 ENGINE Engine code 1978-79 GM came out of Impala with 38K on odometer Performance parts below installed July 2011 Comp Cams (Thumpr) 279-TH7, Comp Cams lifters, and Comp Cams springs Edelbrock 600 CFM performer series carburetor Edelbrock Performer series 2101 Manifold 60,000 V HEI Cloyes Timing chain and gear set (not the noisy set) TH 350 TRANSMISSION from 1978 CHEVY IMPALA with 38K on odometer B&M 2200 RPM Torque coverter installed July 2011 Speedway Motors Corvette 1” Master cyl w/ 7 inch power brake booster Speedway Motors 11 GALLON FUEL TANK .
