1918 Rat Rod
This isn't your run-of-the-mill ratrod with little drivability. This hotrod is all about drivability. The engine is a 355 with 9.1 compression forged pistons with a 6:71 supercharger. Transmission is a 200R4 overdrive with a 3000 stall and shift kit. Rearend early Nova, 10-bolt 57 1/2" wide with 4:11 gears and pro posi. She'll cruise down the road at 100mph. The frame is 2 x 4 x 3/16 low to the ground for handling. Front end is a Mustang II, Flaming River rack and tubular control arms. The rear suspension has Nascar truck series control arms and 4 shocks. Ya...she corners like a go-cart. If you noticed, you aren't setting on the floorboard either like some ratrods that are just channeled and not dropped.
