True West Coast traditional 34 Ford chop top hot rod created by the legendary Steve Sellers of Sellers Equipped of San Jose California.This unbelievablerod was built by Steve and the original owner Rick "Reeps" Moody in the early 2000's as a unique one of a kind cruiser that was on the cover and featured in THE RODDER'S JOURNAL number 26!Some of the highlights are as follows:Genuine 1934 pickup cab that has a been chopped and leaded by a previous unknown rodder then chopped again for a total of 6.5" chop.Channeled 10" and numerous other custom body modifications.1932 Chevy pickup frame that has been boxed, kicked, shortened, tapered and customized for transmission and suspension mounting.Pete & Jakes 4" chrome front drop axle and shocks.Schroeder sprint car steering box.57 Buick finned aluminum drums on 40 Ford brake hubs.82 Jeep rear end.

The list goes on and on with the unique, rare and complete custom features on the hot rod. Craftsmanship, design and welding are simply the best of the best on this vehicle and it shows everywhere.I have taken a pics of the centerfold that features all the custom work that has been itemized out so you can read the long list in the photos section.Since the original creation of this rod almost 17 years ago a few things have been added such as front and rear turn signals, hidden horn, and seat belts so the vehicle will most likely pass most international transportationinspections.To my knowledge this vehicle has not been shown at any major indoor or outdoor event, just simply driven for miles of enjoyment and fun. The feature in The Rodder's Journal is the only known pics of this vehicle that have shown up in publication!
