Michigan Rat F-1

[flat rat]

I am new to posting. I have been lurking while I build my Rat Truck. I know a picture is worth a thousand words. The cab is F-1. The frame is a 56 f100. The engine is a 1947 flathead 59ab. Trans is a crash box from a F-5 dump truck.

Welcome to the site from the Northern part of the Mitten. Although not as Northern as Icebox or a few others on here. Or as nothern as I used to be.[S
Nice to see you running a flathead as well.[cl

Do you attend other Rat Rod shows in Michigan?

I have attended the antique truck show in Yellow Springs Ohio with an unrestored 1952 F-1, but they do not want Rat Rods.

I do like Rat Rods.

I have also attended a show in St. Ignace Mi. It was for all original cars. Held the weekend before the Hot Rod show. I really liked the show, but again, Rat Rods are not all original manufactured cars. I may go to this show again.

I know Ducktails will accept me. The last time I went, there were lots of Rat Rods to look at.

I will take the Rat to local shows were anything goes.

I just go to shows, most don't care about if you have a rat or not.
Next year I want to hit Autorama in the basement, and also Sins of Steel.
