Hey Im new to the rat rod thing, Got in to this after is started building a 89 mustang and found it to be not what I wanted. So here I am Looking for a truck cab and ready to run. I plan to build my own frame, I love to weld and build things, been doing it for 12 years and cant wait to start. So If anyone has a truck body let me know. I've been finding them and not likeing the prices 1000 + for a bare cab is crazy I think or maybe im out of touch lol :D

Ditto on not using the R*t Rod term. Spend some time reading some posts similar to what you want to build and you'll see there is a big difference to a traditional built hot rod. Welcome from MD.

The first thing you need to do is learn the difference between a Rat Rod and a traditional Hot Rod! One is a piece of Crap, the other is a Hot Rod,does this help?

I've been seeing that there are crappy looking ones and ones done nice with flat black and are very custom and thats the look I'm going for. Now I just need to get a cab.
