    New from RI/OH

     



    My name is Tom. My home is back in RI. I am 18 yrs old. Currently I am in school at Univ. of Northwestern Ohio in Lima, OH. I am going for automotive/ high performance. I don't have car yet, but I am in the planning stages for it till I am done with school. I am planning on building a t-bucket cause of the cost of them, but I want to make almost everything myself in house, including the body. I want to make a air ride setup for it and make it look like a traditional rat rod. Thank you and if you have any tips I am open for anything.
    Tom

    Welcome to CHR, Tom! You should be able to get a lot of help here for your build. Several members have built one or more T's recently and love them. A T with air ride, that certainly will be a unique build, don't think I have run across one in my travels yet, so your build will certainly be interesting. Keep us posted with lots of build pictures.

    Build it to traditional standards, not rat rod. I think you'll be more satisfied with your build in the long run.

    Thank you. Yeah I haven't seen to many either. Either I am gonna build a T or a 29' RPU. I am still up in the air with everything still.
