Hi-
New to post here, I have many vehicles and have a passion for older cars. The main project I'm working on is a 1935 Chevrolet master coach. The cool part of the car is I have most of the history. I have pictures of this car in front of the alamo, beaches etc. I also have pictures of it's previous resting place. It was sitting in a garage down in Texas since 1968. I've had it for about a year. I have since dumped the old 207 and put in a 235 straight six from a 54. I think I want to turn it into a 50's rod someday. But I needed to get on the road and drive it.
Below is a link of my junk.

Here is a question Hot Rod and Rat Rod what is the difference. I also have been watching rides and the Burbank Choppers. When someone says Rat Rod, I think that is grouping that one should be proud of. It is really the majority of people out there. You see all the high end stuff and it is cool no doubt. But most can't even afford it, and if you can scrape the money together it is usually a sacrifice for something that might be more rational to spend the money on. My car has the paint falling off etc. and if someone wants to call it a Rat Rod I would be proud, because I think it represents the real hot rodder of America no matter if your trying to build a traditional rod, custom, billet machine, Pro street, or whatever. It can represent any die hard hot rodder where money is an object.
Just my 2 cents.
Glad I found this site, I think it will help me decide period type of modifications I would like to perform.
