Hey Dave, Its a '47 Dodge "W" series truck cab going to be on '34 Ford frame rails, small block Chevy, dropped front axle, horizontal torsion bar suspention, chopped and channeled. Just took this photo Sat. of all parts acquired from my me and my friend... just got the cab stripped of it's guts, going to be mocking up the chassis to nail down the frame width. We are going as traditional as we can except trans (t5 5-speed) and torsion bar set up... I'm planning on making it look all traditinal at the very least.
