You would be hard pressed to have more fun in a truck than with this one. Inspired by the original Southern California Rat Fink Car Club, this Rat Rod Chevy offers all the looks and charm with modern performance and drivability. The all steel 1949 Chevy truck was built by SoCal Street Performance and features all steel Chevrolet body parts, no fiberglass parts in this truck!! Rat Rods or nostalgic built hot rods are leading the trend in customs now, and will continue to do so because they never get dated or obsolete. They are built to replicate a period of time when shiny paint and billet everything didn’t matter, but having fun with the car was the only goal! The original 1949 Chevrolet truck drove great for 1949, but to drive one today the frame was modified to accept a 1991 Chevrolet Camaro front clip and suspension. This includes independent front control arms with coil springs and shocks. The power steering system was retained from the camaro as was the power disc brakes!! The engine is a 350ci V8 with Edelbrock RPM Performer aluminum intake, Holley performance carburetor with electric choke, high voltage ignition, chrome Edelbrock air cleaner, chrome Edelbrock valve covers, chrome exhaust shields and chrome alternator bracket. Everything is kept cool by an aluminum radiator with engine mounted flex fan and auxiliary electric fan for those really hot days. Dual exhaust exits the truck just before the rear tires on each side. The rear end is a GM 10-bolt with limited slip. The automatic transmission is a 3-speed GM unit and shifts smoothly. The truck rides on staggered Boss aluminum wheels with gunmetal centers and polished lips. The front wheels are 18’s the rears are 20’s, and with a 4” lower stance from original they really tuck under the truck nicely! The truck is street legal with turn signals, headlights, LED tail lights and brake lights. The body is largely stock and very solid. It is finished in ultra durable Black Epoxy primer sealer with Von Dutch style pin striping. Easy to maintain and you don’t need to worry if you chip or scratch it. No chopped top or shaved panels here. The bumpers were deleted and the grill was painted body color for a slicker look. The bed features a custom raised design on the floor. The floor is covered in exterior vinyl and really sets the truck apart. Dual chrome side mirrors are period correct. Both side and rear windows are tinted glass. The interior is full custom, with Red vinyl, Tan Suede, and Alligator accents! The seats and door panels feature detailed sewed inlays and are plush to the touch. The seats are comfortable and the position is adjustable, and with a tilt steering column, even us larger drivers can drive comfortably. The seats feature a 60/40 slit with fold down center console. Chromed billet window cranks and interior door handles look fantastic as does the billet rearview mirror. Classic instruments gauges package keeps you well informed with speedometer, fuel level, engine temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. The stereo system is great and features a JVC AM/FM/CD head unit in dash. The truck is a fun ride with awesome looks. It received a fresh fluid service recently and is ready to go. All the gauges, radio, lights, brakes, engine, trans, and so on have been checked and all function as they should. Many Rat Rods are cobbled together and nothing works, this is not the case with this truck! It is ready to enjoy today with nothing else needed but a new owner! Please feel free to call us with any questions. International world wide transport is available and we are happy to assist in shipping your new truck if needed.
