Last spring I went on a road trip to meet a guy with some old Mopar iron. Old Mopars thread with pics.
I finally scraped up enough money to buy the '46 from him and picked it up today.
The plan is to put the body on a Dakota chassis and have a stylin' daily driver on the cheap.
Reality is I'll probably get it into 100 pieces in my shop and it will be boating season... then I'll lose interest.
This will not be a rat rod! Ugh! I cannot stress that enough.
We need a new name for the "complete older body (primered or patina'd) on newer chassis". Maybe Rusto-mod?
