i will toss a huge party at my house if you guys are down. this is actually my second top rat award i won in 07 too. now i am done i promise really. this build as i said before was a lot of fun there was a lot of junk box digging walking out back in the grass to find parts sorta deal. she is a true rat and thats what i wanted this one to be. thanks to all who voted and the bikes that are lower in votes there are some really cool bikes like hot rod girl, the gooch, llsx53 (i think i spelled that wrong sorry buddy) and many many others. this bike was a group effort in every since of the word from the start when i was not going to enter and stay out of it this year to then my buddies egging me on to enter one more time to the guys on here hooking me up with cool parts that i could not find then there is the support given to me along the way durring the build. what can i say i have been a part of other forums over the years and i joined rat rod bikes in 06. i am still a very active member for one reason and it is because of the people who suround the site. this is a straight up family and the local ratters are some of my best friends and u know who you are. if one of us needs someting others will drop what they are doing and help out, if someone has a question they will drive 20 miles to help (thanks frank with the bug lol) and thats what it is all about. the progression is cool, building neat bikes is fun, but when it comes down to it and i realized it way more than ever this year friends are very important to keep you going when your down and kick u in the u know what when u need it. thanks to all this is the best site on the net bar none it has been said before but i will say it again, RAT ROD BIKES. COM RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
