I am very close to pulling the trigger on a hot rod truck kit but I would like to see one in person. Is there anyone in Southern or Central California that would let me come see their truck(completed or not)?
Thanks,
Steve

Steve, I have a FFR 35 truck. I completed it recently, but still fine tuning (probably forever). I live in Huntington Beach and would be happy to let you see it. -Greg

I am building a '33 Hot Rod which you are welcome to come and see, if that does you any good...

I may have to take you up on that. I am up in Bakersfield so I am not far. Thanks!

If interior fit is a question of yours, take up Sbda4’s offer and go see the truck. The truck and the hot rod are quite different inside.

That is my main concern, I want to sit in one before I pull the trigger.

You might scour through the posts on this sub-forum to see where the builders are located. My (unreliable) memory is that there are a couple of trucks being built in the Sacramento area, which might be closer for you to visit. There used to be a map showing the location of many Hot Rod builders, but Google apparently deleted it recently. Maybe one of the Admins will build one for truck builders, since this question seems to come up a lot.

A google map for us truck guys would be cool. I built #16 a couple years ago and each truck is different from the next .
A couple guys have chopped the cab and extended it another chopped the top one guy extended the foot box area. The truck is a acquired fit for sure it’s tight. Seat height and pitch makes a big difference there’s a lot of head room to play with
If you have a chance to sit in both by all means check em out . Rob

That's my plan as of right now. Try to see each before making any decisions.
