Hey people of the rat rod world, the names Patrick, 22, and i live in Perth Australia. In Perth we have a fairly large hot rod scene, but a small percentage actually get into rat rods, most are kinda shuned apon here as its not a 'pretty' car, but i like rust. At the mo I have a 63 chev belair australian built, that is going through some work to get her laying on the deck, aswell as take it from a pertty car to the way i see pretty... I also have a 54 chev 4 door, which is the next project, she will be getting a 5 inch chop and 2 doored. Im a 1st year apprentice sheet metal worker, so im slowly building up my catalogue haha. Heres afew pics of my cars...Oh and Ill go into detail in the build section i guess?

Welcome to the site! We would love to see you do a build on here. Congrats on nice caers. You started young to have such nice cars at 22. I bought my first classic when I was 15, I am 41 now. I hope you enjoy the site and feel free to join "rat" in on the discussions.
