    Houston Autorama Coming Soon...

    Well the Autorama will be here in 4 days and I can't wait! I have been going to this for more than 30 years and had my car in there for the last 6 years (basically when they started letting primer cars in)... What started out a few years ago as a small gathering of rats has almost taken over...

    Coolest seats ever...

    I think I have seen the coolest seats ever for a rat...old movie theater seats, the kind that fold upwards when you get up! I saw a set in a rat truck last month and now I just so happened to find a pair of these type of seats in a garage sale!!! Now I just gotta find something to put 'em in...LOL

    Does anyone make a bolt-in kit to put a 350 chevy motor in a 1951 chevy 1 ton truck? Don't have access to a welder right now and I would like to start shopping around for a motor for it. Thanks, Russell

    Looking to fit it...LOL

    Everytime I show up at these local parking lot "shows" it seems as though everything in sight is chrome and billet...is there anywhere in the Houston area that welcomes rat-rods and old school type cars?

    Tilt Front End...

    Any tips on making a tilt front end...my only problem is my hood bolts to the firewall and not to the fenders. (1949 chevy car) a buddy told me to just tilt the fenders and let the hood raise normally...to me that seems like it would be ugly as hell..lol...any tips would be appreciated.

    Tilt front end...

    Any body have any good ideas for tilting a front end on a '49 chevy car?? Really don't want to cut the fenders, but also want it to be a "one man job" when tilting it. Have seen the ones with the little rollers on the inner fender wells but thats just not what I want to do. Would also like it to...
