Find one of the local hot rod clubs and hang out with those guys. Don't be afraid to ask questions. The only stupid question is the same question asked twice. Listen to what these guys tell you, most of the time they have made those mistakes and paid the price. If you show some respect, you will gain the considerable knowledge you will need to make your hot rod safe and fun.
Hey Crawford, its Andrew. Most of the work you would be doing to this guy is going to be custom work. There isnt really a "how to" for most things, because there is no set way to do it. Depends on your budget at the end of the day. You get the windshield and back windows and such custom made after you chop it, and the cheapest way to make floor panels is with a welder and sheet metal. If you end up getting it, I only live a city away and can help you with the custom fab and installs, I've got a garage full of tools and parts. Hit me up! -Andrew
Looks alot better than that last "Pile of shit" you posted! READ,READ,READ! Then put together a plan AND STICK TO IT! Another tip....get some hair dye and fix that MOP! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
Damn you must feel like a fuckin champion making of fun of a 17 year old on a computer! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Most of the things you are asking...have been answered several times. Use the search function. You can also use the groups for specific info, there is one for 35-37 ford trucks. Most here will help you, but you need to do some research for yourself too. JJ
Good looking rod project - should be a ton of fun when completed! Keep us updated with plenty of pictures!
