It's amazing what can happen when a little creativity and hard work come together. A group of students from the Northeast Texas Community College Auto Body Department recently put together a “Rat Rod” car project that the crew built entirely on their own. The car was designed and created by auto body students Oscar Salazar, Randy Loewen, W.P. Johnson, Ron Isaiah and Greg Northcutt.
