19 year old brit !

well ive finally joined this site after spending well over a year casually watching all the other posts (dont see why i did it ages ago to be honest ?)

anywayyss down to business !
im 19 years old and an apprentice welder / engineer for a industrial oven making company bascically learning skills to be able to properly sart making cars the right way without bodging it all together ! (like my first hot rod project my totally stock 29 model A coupe)

i bought the car when i found it advertised at the local strip last november and totally fell in love from the start! being a 18 year old kid at the time.. i sat and had all the visions of choppingg an channeling it ect.ect basically an american graffiti syle coupe like every kid does !

but after having the car sat in the garage all stock like it is and looking on the hamb at all the other traditional style rods .. ive dedided to change my wayss and build it the way it was supposed to be built !

nothing fancyy, the original "ratty" (sorry) look and just built for driving an enjoying !

cheers for reading my little essay about my lifee
