Default New guy! my attempt at a rat rod..

Hey guys! Im ian im 14 years old and this is my attempt at a "rat rod." kinda, its like a nice rat rod if that makes any sense!
It has a 5.5 intek 206 b&s motor
Started off like this, i paid 0$ traded it for a pair of old gm headers.

then i started tearing it down

then stripped it

then painted it with bedliner


then painted tires and powdercoated (all red stuff)






that is how it sits now. currently i am waiting on bearings and a sprocket. i plan and making the kill switch to the motor a little pull-string light bulb switch with a little guy hanging from it under the steering wheel. it will also act as a anti-theft device, because when i shut it off you will have to pull it one more time to start it or it will be shorted out. i also am making the gas tank out of a old fire extinguisher. thanks dude! c&c welcome!
