ebay (not mine) - rear end of 1926 tudor - ideal for volksrod truck??
If only I had the time and space, this would be cool to use as the rear end of a volksrod "truck"...

Ya know what... I dont think I have ever seen a 'phaeton' (tourer) style VRod yet!... The only draw back with that set-up it the engine would be
hangin out the back..... You could make a 'conti' spare wheel cowl for the engine... Or maybe a fau luggage rack..... Or maybe a mid-engine deal
could be done.... But try to get it rego'd!!!

Why not put the engine in a big wicker picnic basket?

Just dont make it too big!.... I have seen some wicker deals on vintage cars in the past and they look way strange on them.... They seem to be the
size of a travel trunk!... Looking at where the wheel would be in relation to the engine position, what ever cover was used would only have to be
around 300mm deep....

Common Matt.... think a little more broadly!!! ;-) Anyone can build an A model.... Shit...modern rods are just big mecano sets... What happened to
building something from what ever was lying about? Besides.... I reckon you'd have a hard time getting some rails regoed with a dub engine in the
boot! LOL!
