As a kid I did foolish things such as floor the accelerator of the flathead engine in the US Mail truck I pictured above and dump the clutch from a dead standstill in creeper gear.. With that heavy body the truck would actually do a wheelie. I wonder what it would do with a Rat Engine? :eek:

I vote ...RAT ROD it!!!

It'd be awesome.  Triple turbo MR2 engine... mid center. It'll haul ass. ;)

I think it's crying for a 383. It demands more class than a typical rat rod. I was thinking a mild roof chop, fill the aluminum windows, lower it, channel it, big mags, shiney dark blue or black paint with a gold business insignia on the side. Everyone seems to think that ratrod is the easy way to go, but when you get right down to it, all you save is some clear coat and a bit of interior cloth. Do it, but do it nice.... something like those old 60's show vehicles when things got strange... but more modern.
