Wanting to build a clone

I am wanting to build a clone truck of the famous WildKat truck built by Barris wanted to know if anyone knows what sized motor he used and if anyone also has some 55 chevy pickup fenders for sale.

 

Hi, the truck was bought new by Morris Srabian of Fresno, a long time builder/restorer.
Morris's brother has a paint shop there, they may be listed in the phone directory.
Lots of Fresno guys on the HAMB, Morris should be easy to find.
AMT did the model of it, based on a '53. (still available on eBay and swaps) They were true-to-scale on this one, so the model would have the info.

 

That's a cool pick'em up truck!

 

that grille treatment is tits

 

I always liked the Wildkat. anybody else got any good pics to post up? I would like to see some as well.

 

The car was used for at least two How To articles...
