Hello all, I think this is the forum where I will spend my time. I just picked up a 50 Ford F-1 that I intend on hot rodding. I have a Harley Sportster that I play with and I spend alot of time on the Xlforum, an excellent forum for Sportsters and Buells. When I got the Ford, I was excited to check out what kind of Rat Rod forums were out there. I was real disappointed with the first two I found. They had some good information on them, but the flaming was out of control. Then I ran across this forum and I could tell it was different immediately. I just read the forum rules and was very happy (and not suprised) to find that this board is moderated well.
I'm new to the old iron, but not new to cars. I've been a new car dealer mechanic for 15+ years and right now the idea of a basic, no frills hot rod really appeals to me. My plan is to run a suicide front end, z the frame out back, chop the top and run a small block with a manual trans. I want to do this on the cheap. I look forward to interacting with the members to(hopefully) prevent too many mistakes and get some great ideas.
