1935 / 1936 Ford pickup truck hot rod, rat rod ? This truck has a hard chop, Rudy style, it looks and sounds killer and gets attention everywhere it goes! modified Ford frame has been shortened to accommodate shortened bed for the right look, correct proportions. it has a shortened '38 grille and a late '30's Oldsmobile hood ornament. the engine is a small block Chevy 350 with Rochester carburetors, billet MSD distributor, mild flat tappet cam, roller rockers, and gear drive, no chain, it sounds awesome! there are small "mufflers" in the headers to quiet it down some, they can be removed if you want it louder. transmission is a Muncie 4 speed manual, and shifts easy, like it should. the cab was chopped over 7 inches, I am 6' 4" tall, and i fit in this truck fine, I drive it everywhere. it has both fully functioning windshield (opens out), and cowl vent (opens). the doors and bed are painted in a maroon(?) color with a flattener in the clear over the paint, this is not primer. the roof has metallic red paint with 7 coats of clear over it, and the striping above the back window was done by Bo Huff, Jr. the dash and metal transmission tunnel are painted silver metallic to match the firewall. the doors have chopped, painted, window garnish moldings. this truck was built in 2016 and since has been driven about 11,000 miles, so it is proven to be a reliable, fun as hell truck. it does have a couple stone chips on it, again, i drive it, but if you want paint codes to touch up the paint, i'll provide it to you. the tires of course are Firestone bigs and littles with plenty of tread left, i'm not doing burnouts at every red light, don't worry. the rear axle of the truck is on airbags, 2 switches in the cab, and a 3 gallon tank in the bed, this thing will lay ON the ground! it has a Pioneer CD player, 4 speakers, and a 10 inch subwoofer for your listening enjoyment, too. the steering wheel is a removable, race-style setup wheel. the ONLY reason i'm selling this is my wife and I found an awesome house on what is considered "horse property", so no HOA's and almost an acre, so the money from this truck can get us in to that house. these don't come up very often in Las Vegas, so i gotta let the truck go, but i will have another one someday. i'm sure i'm forgetting something, so please feel free to call or text me for anything or to come take a look at it, and thank you for looking.
