Hi,

saw you are from Sydney!!

Body is for my next project, having just completed our first Rod, am keen to do another.

Do you know of any out here, or anywhere for that matter??

They are out there. I consider them more custom rather than hot rod material (in the 1940's sense ala Jack Calori's or the current build in the same style by Acme Speed Shop here on the HAMB). What are your intensions?

Hi X 38,
yes 'custom' is appropiate, I guess we generalise a bit. A full ground up rebuild is proposed with a professional chassis , plus a raked body chop, and channel.
Have the look clear in my mind, power plant at this stage undecided.
Cheers

A "raked" chop sounds a bit off. Do a search on here, chopping 36 3w's has been discussed a few times with pics of good and bad versions and what does and doesn't work with this body style.
Here's one recent one:
