    Here is another interesting rat from the NSRA in Tampa. Or maybe not a rat??? How would you classify this one?

    My "Bobber Truck", "Rat Rod". Suspension is made from all new or rebuilt parts. I have built dirt track dirt cars, restored Muscle cars and 35 years of welding experience so I build them with safety in mind. Runs down the highway at 70 with no problem. Absolutely no bump steer, correct Akerman with no scrub. 11" front disk brakes with Corvette dual master cylinder, 10" rear drums.

    dmw, This little Bobber truck has been on several web-sites, and the build photos ( I think ) were on the Hamb or maybe the RRR. This is a well thought out and very well built Hot Rod. Doesn't even belong in any conversation with what may be wrong with some rats. And I think that these Bobber style trucks is the something new I spoke about in an earlier post.

    Great job "dmw56" now go build another one.

    I got to finish my 50 Stude Street Rod first. Then I have a 54 Stude PU, 30 Model A PU and a 38 Chevy PU to build.

    dmw56, I have seen most of your build thread or I guess "Build Thread's" just wasn't sure were. Your is a very cool little truck and I really love the Bobber Truck Theme.
    With all of those projects, looks like there will be plenty more build's to look for. I have traveled thru new Mexico many times and there sure isn't any lack of old tin there so you could be busy for a looooong time. Hope so!!
