hi im pretty bad at the whole introduction thing.
well im swamp im 25 and from the uk.
ive been buying custom car and street machine mags for about the last 13 years.
ive always had a massive interest in rods and i get to as many rod shows as i can... im currently not driving a rod im driving a ratty split pick up....i know it probably wont be to many peoples tastes and its not a rod but here it is anyway
by the way i dont do shiny!!!!

ive been looking into building myself a rod but the the min funds just wont allow.
anyway i thought id not be a lurker and just sign up introduce myself and start getting some more ideas together for building my first rod.
