after looking at it alot when i first saw it i thought about it as i have a ute body to cut up, but there would actually be quite alot of body work to get it to resemble this, i've seen other drawings that i think this idea may have come from

This would be cool with a hot grey motor, period speed equipment, and some Tasmans and wide whites

Maybe use this as a front end, with a narrowed humpy grille? Pic by Steve Brown

In the Newsledder #4 (I think cuz my cover is missing) , page 32 readers art some guy penned a drawing of a FB based rod using a early dodge cowl. It looked pretty neat cept I had the real thing going together in my shed. This was about 93-94 or so. Rather than come across as a copy cat because this guy was claimed to be building it soon. I scrapped the idea and reluctantly sold it off when a fellow rod club member offered to take it off my hands...... dirt cheap.

Mine had a 29 dodge cowl, no name roadster windshield, FB front doors with drastically shortened rear quarters, while the full driveline was from my EK as were the front and rear ends plus steering all mounted to a boxed 27 chev chassis. The floorpan was wedge cut from a ute.
