First of all, since people tell me they have wondered about it. My name is simple. I like chevys, and my birthday is April 20, 1983 - 4/20/83.

Yeah, the ease of building is half the reason for me wanting a rat rod. I would like to build up my datsun, but I just can't bring myself to tear into a car that looks as good as it does. And is as complete as it is. If I were to build it, it would be a chevy V-8 and 6-speed, but I just can't tear into a car that is perfect for a complete resto. I just don't have the money/want to resto it.

No front brakes? Why is that? If I'm gonna be driving it much in Houston, I'm gonna want all the brakes I can get . I've noticed some rods without them, but why? Less weight? I always assumed the rods with big and little tire configurations pretty much made the front brakes useless, but mine will be a little more balanced on tire size.

Here's a couple pics...
This is my favorite...

Datsun...


I need to get more pics of that dat since I now have a digi cam.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
