This looks like my kind of forum.
I've been around the forums and most folks know me by now. I'm looking forward to participating and seeing some cool work.

Welcome, Jantrix.
This board is quite inactive as you can see,
The owner has long since left and I haven't been able to contact him in a long while. You may recognize his name from DPMCC. Mastermodeler - Alex Drake. I'm muddeling thru as an administrater as best as my limited computer skills allow. Trying to keep it alive. For a long period, I considered it my private posting grounds An Email address change cost me the ability to notiffy the group, so I resigned myself to just be here basically alone. Dogfish and Bob have been the only participnts. If people start showing up, I wall have to be more attentive. 
Welcome again.
Clay (Geezerman)

Clay, I have an idea on that front if you want to try to revive this forum. I don't know if you're on Facebook but there are a few Facebook groups dedicated to the rat rod and other weathered type scale autos. I think if we were to let them know that there is a forum specifically for this genre, we might get a some more traffic through here.
My only thought on changes here though, would be to lose the year restriction. That way anyone who's into weathering, patina rods, beater muscle cars, rat rods, and other rust buckets will find a home here. Like with most things, the more we limit the focus, the more we limit the interest.
I'd be happy to spread the word on Facebook, just let me know what you want to do.

Thanks,
The initial restrictions were set by Alex at the inception of the forum. Not too sure if my limited abilities will let me do any changes. We did address this a while back and started a category 'Mic. off topic builds'. I certainly wouldn't insist on holding to the year restriction, however, I would hope to stick to our initial theme of rustbuckets and junkers!
Would like to be seeing some action here, but as I have been saying, even tho Alex made me an administrator, my computer challenged knowledge severely limits what I am capable of doing. I can't get the forum to recognize my E-mail address change. I used to be able to send out mass e-mails to members, from the administrators section, and let them know what was going on.
Hopefully any one new or returning will accept that I can't make any radical changes here.
So. yeah, would appreciate anything you can send this way !

When Alex started this board, Bob, he had a cut off date of nothing newer than 1960.
