    I'm new as a member but have been a long time viewer. My current ride is a 1951 International rat rod style, it sits really low, no air bags here. Hope you like it.

    Welcome I love your truck. I wouldn't use R@+r¤d here. It will make your life hell. Do you have any info on chassis suspension and drive in your truck? Here's mine a '55 R100.

    Thanks for the comments, didn't know rat road was a dirty word :) The truck has mopar drivetain, 360 with mild cam, and automatic, it has a Mustang II front suspension with 2" droppped spindles. The rear frame has been C notched to get the tires tucked into the fenders. I found some nos 50's seatcovers and had them resewn over the 2000 GMC rear van seat which its in the original seat frame. It's a fun driver.

    Welcome, definitely doesn't look like a ratrod which is good because they suck and are not welcome here. I would definitely consider that more of a traditional. There is a lot of confusion out there on ratrods. Nice to see its Mopar Powered.

    To me, personally, that's entirely too clean and original, to dub a double "r", and like above, steer clear of that on here.
