Chuck Most Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Quit talking to yourself and build one Chuck. I gotta warn ya though, you'll never go back to wee scale. But if I quit talking to myself, I'll be all alone... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arick Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Nice build, I like it. Just wondering though, you put so much thought into the interior.......are you going to add clutch/break/loud pedals? Keep it coming Al, great builds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old-hermit Posted July 10, 2010 Author Share Posted July 10, 2010 Thanks for the compliments guys. I've been in a slump lately and this build is bringing me out of it. are you going to add clutch/break/loud pedals? I got the pedals done this AM Rick. I had to wait till the body was placed with the floor to get the right height. Cameras sure do bring out all the boo boo's. Looks like I need to do some touching up on the dash and get some better glasses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandpaMcGurk Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Excellent model Al, it really captures that old school hot rod image. As usual, your turn around time is in a league that many of us only wish we could keep up with. Another feather in your cap, well done!
