    51 F1 Flipped Frame?

    This is a great thread as I was thinking of asking the same question. Did anything ever happen with your project C1ph3r?

    best reaction to your ride

    Way back in the '80s when I bought my first new car, an '86 Buick Grand National, I took it to college and when I walked into the dorm a kid looked out the window at it and said "Holy S**t". I thought that was pretty cool for some time so did my friends who heard it. (I guess I still do)

    Check it out, you can build a guitar from a cigar box and a few sticks of wood, they even have a Rat Rod group free plans at www.cigarboxnation.com These are pretty cool and can sound good too I've built 2 myself. Just one more thing to get hooked on.

    Money is tight!

    My business is graphics for race cars mainly and some commercial vehicles and it is really in the tank, nobody is spending unless they have to and then they wait till the last minute. I fully agree with the above 'rant'. Barter is OK by me, I do it sometimes but I still need cash to pay the bills.

    New guy from upstate NY

    I live in an odd spot, we always get a few inches less than the towns around us. We got about 4" of wet heavy snow. Snowblowed it with my John Deere walk behind, vintage 80's.

    when did term "rat rod'' first appear

    Seems like I read the term in HOT ROD magazine in the early 90's? Could be off a few. I don't care they're all hot rods to me, and I like em all, painted, not painted, primered, rusted, so long as you can drive it!. My dad had a '36 5 window coupe with a nearly new 8ba flathead he swapped into...
