    1965 Volvo Amazon - Sort of a Rat/Mild Custom mix

    I'll get some pics up when I can. In the beginning I was trying to document the whole process with pictures and I just found it very difficult to focus and get things done when I had to stop and take a picture. Much easier to just set my phone on a tripod, have it record everything and edit it...

    This is a pic from the day I got it. I've done quite a bit of work on it but not much cosmetically so far.

    Hi all, my name's Adriano and I'm Italian but have been living in Seattle for the past 10 years. I'm not exactly building a rat rod, more of a restomod (I have a 1965 Volvo Amazon), but I love rat rods and figured I would still learn some good stuff especially about the metalworking side of...
