Looking cool so far. All you need now is a WAY too big motor sticking out the top and of course, the requisit sunroof with the shifter sticking out... All you'll need then is the cotton tire smoke.

This is cool, can't wait to see more of it! It looks like Gasser to me, if you want, there's a Gasser CBP, where we'd like to see also this kind of builds. ;)

Anyway, I'll be following, the stance is just right. B)

Cool little car. Looks like you still have room behind the front tires for the fender well exhaust dumps.
My LHS has a few 1/32 scale cars (73 Cougar and a 60's Barracuda) for $5. I may have to pick them up to do some drag quick builds.

Later-

I think this one is 1/24 or 25 it's just really short .I replaced the front pan with one from a Monogram 67 Vette and I might use that kits dash too.

Pat...this one cool build. I am really digging the direction you are going with this making it a gasser. I am looking forward to seeing more on this. Keep up the killer work.
