    Question 70's or older frame-over-body car

     



    Hello,
    I am trying to build a rod for as little as possible. I am open to ideas. I am wondering if i could just find some crappy old car like a 70's cadillac or any other oldier frame-over-body car that packs a v-8 and then rip the body off and toss on a model a body or something. Like i said before i am open to ideas and remember cash is tight safety ddesnt matter.

    a '70's Caddillac is a few feet too wide and a lot of feet to long for a Model A body. as for Safty not being an issue, it is an issue for the minivan full of kids when you rear end them from no brakes.
