how about something like this design, this was created by DAN WOODS who built the milk truck and the ice truck this was the third one he designed with ED NEWTON.

Did you ever find the body you were looking for?I can send ya some pictures of it and our new chassis if you like.

Thanks

Scottrods custom and the new rodnrace fiberglass.
 
Scott never mentioned it but he bought Rod N Race awhile back. I stopped by there today and had a little tour. The bodies look very nice and I personally like his chassis. The bodies are a little longer then stock and they are designed to sit on the frame not channel over it. This makes for more room in the car as well as more leg room.

Here is one fresh out of the mold. I wish I could have taken it home.

Here is the chassis with the regular body. I believe he mentioned they are interchangeable.

Scott has some nice products so I hope that he would become an advertiser. I looked at the rates and they seem pretty reasonable to me.

I really like how the frame pinches around the front of the body, a real high end feature in my book for a T bucket
 
Here are two C-Cabs I built. The chassis are typical T-bucket style with the rear lengthened to support the back of the bodies. The bodies are my own design and were built of 3/8 inch plywood over a 2 x 2 skeleton and laminated with fiberglass. I built Bunkie's Beerwagon in 1975-76 and sold it in 1984. It had a 327 with a mild Crane cam, stock Turbo 350 with a 2800 rpm stall converter, Holley 600 carb, and 3.55 posi rear end. I turned consistent 13.60's at 100 mph in the quarter mile. The blower in the picture was a dummy. The car is now black with flames, has fenders, and lives in Huntsville, Alabama. The blue & orange car I built in 1988-90. It had 2 inches added to the length of the body in the door/ "C area" for comfort. I sold it in 1996 and it is somewhere in Miami, Florida. Both cars were built on 96" wheelbases with torsion bar front ends. There were a total of 9 cars built from my original plans by 5 different builders (one was a pickup, one was extra large, the other 7 are dimensionally the same). As far as I know, all but one are still in existence.C-Cab pics a2.jpgC-Cab pics 038a.jpg
 
Thanks. It was a fun car. I lived in Greenwood, Indiana then. My wife and I drove it all over the place back then. We went to St.Paul in 1977 for the NSRA nationals and it ended up on the cover of Novembr '77 issue of Street Scene.

The blue car was just an updated version; I corrected all the little things I thought needed improvement. It had a slightly better ride and more comfortable seating, but I sold it before the interior was finished. Both cars had sun roofs and both cars had removable side windows so they could be driven in bad weather.
