You all know when it comes to building "special construction" cars the pain in the rear part is registering and getting a VIN assigned. The 37 Ford cab I own doesn't have a VIN because it was on the frame of the truck. I can buy a frame with the VIN on it and modify it ect. But I have a bill of sale for the cab and want to build my own frame. Something I can look at and say, yeah I did that.
I'm hoping I will be able to get into the special 500 alotted slots here in California where I dont have to get my car smogged. Even then its still a pain in the rear because I'll have to take it to a BAR referee anyways if I get the SB100 slot, so that's why I'm trying to get a engine that's a '65 or older model year. Easier that way.
Anyone who reads this maybe can give me some input or let me know what you think of the whole ordeal. I think this smog crap is good don't get me wrong, but somethings a little out of hand and we car nuts just want to build our own rods and have fun you know. Turning junk into something cool.
Good luck!
