Hey guys. New dude here.

[71rat]

The names nick. I'm 16, and building my first hot rod. Its a 1971 Ford F100. I'm from Oregon, Portland to be Exact. I'm a junior in high school, majoring in Automotive Tech. Been around cars all my life, blah blah blah....I'm a gearhead.


Photobucket is under maintenance right now, so I'll post my rides later.

Welcome to the site. Truck looks good, I used to have one but it was a lot newer when I owned it. ( is it me or are the projects that are called "old" built out of newer vehicles?)

 

[71rat]

Yep, that her. Thanks Gastrick.

Glad to be here.

Heres some pictures of my other rides aswell. The first is my weekend toy and my DD, its a 1985 Jeep Cherokee.

Heres my old truck... I got her for 500, sold her for 1500 after a tune-up, Buffing the paint, and putting some new bits and peices on her. 1968 ford f250. I wish i had gotten better pics of her befire she got sold.

Welcome to the site Nick. Are you planning to build it like the photochopped pic? I think it looks great chopped and shortened like that. I've never really been a fan of those trucks, but I think it would really look good after a little surgery.

 

[71rat]

WEll, im planning to build it like that. Wether it turns out like that or not.... thats a different story.
