Kinda neat! That car is built to the 9s and the attention to detail is great. What a fun ride that would be. Thanks for posting

It looks like the steering column is adjustable.
Never underestimate the power of a lubricant.

Why would anyone call that a rat rod? I hate that term anyway. That is a neat car.

Good call Ed I agree.  The shape of the cowl where it meets the hood is like a 34 or 35.
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

I am pretty sure that body is either a 34 master 3w or a 34-35 standard 3 window.

The 1933 firewall area for the top panels to sit and side panels is much shorter than on  this one than the 34- 35.    Somebody did some cutting to the stock firewall indentation, looks like they welded in a small wheel barrow, old ford firewall trick when sticking later v8 in.

A lot of these cars have just been bought without titles so they new titled them for what they think it is or what somebody else thinks it is.

The radshell is definitely a 34 master or a 34-35 standard series .

If I find a 33 cowl shot I will post a picture.  Actually tfock on here, has a 33 cab and its fisher body, he should pick this out easily .

here is a 33 master 5 window.......note how short the side of the firewall cowl section is where the hood top and sides would fit. 

 Its much longer for 34- 35 Chevrolets, see subject car.
