Ram Rod ' 30s style Modern high boy pickup'

It started out as a D-50 Dodge Ram Mini pickup




ive moved the cab back 17" and will also move the engine back and make up a 20s style front end with round model A headlights

heres a model of some of my ideas







heres a photo shop crop of the truck




its like the old days just pickup a free car from the neighbors do some mods to it and woola a modern hotrod


I will be shortening and narrowing the bed , for that open wheel look

I like the bed, but you gotta come up with something better for the nose! Try an early 50s car/truck hood. Must come out to the edges of the cab, even if it does cover the wheels some! The whole idea is pretty neat, I must say.
