!!My dad's new project!!

Very hot. My only comment would be that it needs a beefier radiator/grill setup. With that wide profile to the body, a 36 Ford style radiator/grill. It would probably need to be modified with a flatter top to match the front cowl. Their might be some others that would work as well. The t-style just looks a bit undersized

Well, being smart or not... Ford has better looking body styles in the early years (in our taste at least) and chevy engine are very cheap to buy... he bought that one for 200$. And physically, a ford having the distributor up front wouldn't be as nice. So all in all it's mixing the brands to make something reliable and clean...

It has a Ford 9inch rear end by the way

Thanks for all the good comments!!!

im not much into those type of vehicles, but why are the front wheels different than the rear? Is that common?

Yes, started by early drag cars.

Thanks Andy. And yes it's done on purpose, like mentioned the front wheels are pure early race car wheels... and we went for the tiny tires up front and taller out back. The front wheels are only made in that size (well I think) so even if we wanted the back wheel to be the same it would have been different. And he chose the back wheel 'cause the "look like" old cragars... but all billet so it gives a retro look with a modern twist... so the car will be... it is "based" from the rat style rods... but it'll be fully painted and it'll sports a lot of chrome... so that's beast name is: Rat Deville
