I have been lurking for a few days and decided to join. I haven't built a Rat Rod in years. My friends and I use to find them in the garbage and yard sales and we would make BMX bikes and Rat Rods out of them. We use to call the Rat Rods(Hot Rods). My last Hot Rod was built about a year before I started to drive and I gave it to a kid down the street after I got my license. It was pretty cool a garbage day find. A Schwinn that was already flat black with Ape hangers an old Schwinn S seat that might have been Blue and White but now looked Black and white and hard tires. I took it home put on the rims and tires off my old Skipper Columbia and was rolling for a good year on it. Man do I miss that bike. I got a few projects now one is a girls bike that I want to do for my little girl and one that I found to do for myself. What I really want to do is learn to build Choppers and stuff so if anyone is willing to teach I am willing to learn
