    Welcome, Ratcad. Nice lookin' scoot and r--rod. Be forewarned, however, they don't like the "R" word on this site. Me, I like them all. They're all "hotrods" to me. Again, welcome.

    Cheers from FL!
     
  6. Welcome, but yes the majority will get you for using the "R" word around these parts!

    well.......when i built my "rat"...i didnt even know the difference from a ford and chev front end...., i had no idea at all, i had no one bounce ideas, or to ask questions, that car you see was completely hand built by me, i had to learn how to shape metal, i didnt know that this "cyber world" existed........now i think i have the right to call it what ever i like..... you see most of the "hotrods" around my parts are fibreglass bits of crap with horrible billet wheels....., so i wanted to be different..... im quite at ease with the fabrication of my car.... so call it what ya like, and if the bulk of people here cant handle it, im happy to go away!!! and as for the bike, i did everything, i didnt even have a license to ride it when i started, didnt know what a BSA was......, im not a painter, but i did the paint.... but if this isnt enough.....!!!!???!!!!

    EASY ROCO ha/ha Welcome to H.A.M.B. from SUNNY SAN JOSE Ca. Hey as long as you drive and work on your car who gives a shit what anyone else thinks. It's your ride do what you want. Maybe someday the HAMBers will get along with the ''R" word....
