Re: build a Trainwreck clone
welcome, bluze81. You'll find that folks here are friendly and helpful.
The TW's that use EL84's are the Rocket and the Liverpool. Take a look at the schematics and layouts in the "Trainwreck Files" forum.
Creiatone makes a chassis, as well as a kit, for the Liverpool:

You can find a really good blank chassis here:

As well as boards:
