Hello Chainsaw I dont think I have actually talked to you on a one to one basis, but my name is Jim and I joined when you were in bedrest (welcome back) I just wanted to share my interpretation (dont use spellcheck) of a ratrod bike.I believe cheap,patina,style, basicly creating with what you can find the less sales reciepts the better just like when the rods were built in the fifties more inovation than anything.
