Been wanting to join for some time now. Just attended the Cheaterma in Milwaukee! That was the best show that I have been to in years. The folks creating these cars & bikes have so much talent it is unbelievable. We built a 29 chev truck over the last year with my kid. We had a blast. Now all we want to do is cruise it around. Does anybody want see some cool pics from cheaterama? cheers everyone!
Welcome from Fond du Lac. I also was at the Cheaterama. Please don't use the Term "Rat Rod" in any positive form here. Thanks!
Why would you call that a rat rod? Welcome aboard!! Love the truck from what I can see in your avatar, not a big fan of the wheels.
Misunderstanding here... his original post commented on how talented the rat rodders at Cheaterama were... the pics didn't show any rat rods hence my comment... he later changed his post to eliminate the rat rodder reference...
I was also at the Cheaters show and it was great! I live in the St.Louis, Mo. area and our cruises never draw the kinds of cars that were in Milwaukee. What we get is mostly street machines and a few real rat rods. What the Cheaters had were what I call real driver hot rods and customs. Not rat rods but unfinished cars. Cars from the past that could have been seen anywhere, at anytime on any street in America in the Fifties!
Welcome, enjoy and some day I will learn how to navigate this site. It is hard to teach an old coot new tricks
