This is my first project that doesn't in some manner reflect my own experiences. I just... really like some of the pre-1940s cars, which lent themselves so well to owner modification. As history progressed, modding slowly became more and more difficult, and in today's world nearly all mods are illegal and those that aren't are nearly impossible. Sure, you can buy some cute canned bolt-on stuff off the shelf, but that's not real modding, real "custom".

These guys... cut the roof off? Sure. Put it back on but only half as high? Of course. Drop the body six inches? No problem. Put a Cadillac engine in your Plymouth? Without blinking. Tractor tires on the rear? Why not. Roots blower? Ya.

This will even include rat rods with their roots in this era.
