I am new to the rat rod building scene. Been admiring for years. building ideas and finally getting into the building. I have had vintage vehicles for years. started with a 64 Galaxie, and now a 63 Mercury Meteor wagon that I've had for over 10 years. My family loves the wagon, it's part of our identity. Now they're getting into the rat rod scene. I plan to start my build thread now, I have all the major components and am starting to work on the building. Love the site and getting lots of great ideas. Thank you all.
My build is a 1936 Diamond T cab going on a 1978 Dodge motorhome chassis, with a 1951 international truck bed. Unknown grill at this point.

Thank you all for your posts and ideas. I love the community feel of the board.

Hello from Missouri and welcome to RRR - I have always admired the old Diamon T trucks. There is one in my area that I have had an eye on for years but the guy wont budge on it. Maybe some day I will catch him at a weak moment.

Welcome, my wife and I spend 2 months in the summer in Sweet Home. Talk about slowing your heart rate down. Great place to look for new iron up there.
