Topic: Cab Over Engine Getting Started

  A couple of weeks ago I finally saw a COE on the net and now I am on the first step of a mission to own one, whether to buy one out right or build one. Problem is while some one will get in the weeds on small stuff, I need to know about the basics if I decide to build one.
How do you know to use an S-10 chassis over a ford ranger chassis? I like the front of most COE's and just like a short pickup style behind the cab.
Also, are there any fiberglass replicas of the 40's and 50's Ford & Chevy COE's ? Thanks.

  This site deals mostly with restored cars. You would probably get a better response to your question here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/

  Go here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/your-car-with-period-vintage-background.1028428/page-2#post-11644070 and look at post #47. I think that is what you have in mind. Don't run whitewall tires.
