32 ford rat truck
This is my first try at a rat rod....
Started with a lindberg 32 street truck kit & using parts box bits.
Only have a small bit done so far...chopped fenders from chassis..fabbed front & rear axle mounts..
Removed chrome from firewall & turned it around for a smooth look instead of the cast-in details,
which aren't that great to begin with.
Any advice is welcome.
Hey guys,What am I doing wrong???? my pics show up chopped off.

Re: 32 ford rat truck
Your pics look OK on my screen - all there from edge to edge. If you have a small screen maybe limit the size of your pics when uploading - try 700 pixels wide for example?
I like where this model is heading - just continue dabbling with it until you have a concept built up that you can work on. I reckon you're on the right track with this one - low and long.

Hey Fellas,...Watch out for those lindberg kits,...Mine doesn't look a thing like the box photo.

Re: 32 ford rat truck
Love the "beer keg" tank on the back. Excellent build and I would hang onto this if I were you, 'cause it's unique (especially seeing it's different to what is supposed to be in the box).

Re: 32 ford rat truck
Thanks for the kind words guys.
Zenrat, I've tried to contact lindberg in the past,...It seems that I'm on their "pay no attention" list.
