Hello Every One! I have decided to Join the Rat(rod)Race once again this year. I enjoyed meeting so many like minded builders last year and the pressure of the competition! It's good to see so many builders returning this year! I can't wait to see what becomes from everyone!! After finishing 5th With My ((Aluminaty)) build Last year I realized i learned many things from all of you. So this build my goal is to make a bike that everyone wants from the parts that those same people gave/sold me because they thought they were past there prime(SuCkEd).
I have a hard time remembering who built what in the past so I figured I would give everyone a refresher who i am and those Newbs an introduction too.
Here is My last years Build and My forever Bike. My 1956 Goodyear highway Patrol!
so i hope i haven't wasted too much of your time,
So here is my build Proposition!
