    Thanks for the warm welcome...I will be getting my frame this week and will attempt to mockup my ride and take some pics. Right now it's just a bunch o' rusty, greasy parts scattered thru-out my work shop! Its gonna be the usual chopped, channeled T-bucket style rod. Instead of using a fiberglass 23 roadster, Im using a steel 27 T coupe. I was very heavy into building street rods back in the 70's and 80's but got out of it when I discovered boats. (Im from the Ft Lauderdale, Fl area). But now Im high and dry in Tn and I have to admit, the socalled "ratrod" craze really perked my interest! My only beef is that some of these rodz are being built in rual areas where there is no inspections and some should not be on the roads...While mine will have a ratty look to it (mostly due to my lack of body working skills ) The chassis and driveline will be very new and safe (oh yeah, did I mention VERY fast too?). Anyway.....looking forward to being a contributing member of this forum! Daniel.
    Trust everyone once. Just be cautious of what may be lost.

    Daniel = Welcome to the site. Build what makes you happy, but build safe. Ratrod discussions can bring out some real nastiness on some sites, but I have seen that here. I don't have one, but I respect those that do, if that is what they want. Hope you enjoy yourself here, and don't forget to speak up.
