  1. Thats a beauty !! I built a 65 Stepside in a similar theme a few years back.
  2. Thought I had a turned aluminum dizzy in the box Mike. Oh well, yours looks nice as well.
  3. Absolutely beautiful...I have always liked the 58 Edsel !!
  4. Sorry about the alternator, I was throwing all the aftermarket goodies I had in the box and never even noticed. Yup, 383 was what I was thinking 'cause its more Plymouth correct than a 440.
  5. I have always felt that the 46-8 Fords were the hardest to get a balanced chop on. They have such a BIG BULKY BULBOUS BUTT !!! When you chop them, it makes the BUTT look BIGGER YET !! Your chop flows so well, and with the tail dragger stance, it really pulls your attention AWAY from the HUGE BUTT !! Great job !!
  6. Love it !! I owned a sweet little 1:1 a few years back. Sure are nice little trucks !!
  7. Love the purple and white, but not sure about the blue, lol All of your builds have such an awesome finish. keep it up !
  8. Where are my sun glasses ? lol, Lots of Bling on that one !!
  9. Beautiful !! Is that the kit chassis?
  10. Sharp lookin build !! I have the Ranchero, but need to get a couple Falcons as well now.
  11. That chip wasn't in it when it left me either, and I have picture proof of it as well. So is this the last place its popping up at Mike, or do I need to go other places also?
  12. Mike, I'll let you call it what you want. But it is officially after the first of the year. SO START WORKING ON IT !!
  13. Mike, you cant say anything. You have had it almost 2 years and all you have managed to do is chip the paint. Lomnslow, I'll be more than happy to take that 59 Elkie off your hands if your tired of looking at it. I think my sig shows what all I have not finished....in the past 6 years.
  14. Geoff, mine is mint and unbuilt. We should have traded since I plan on cutting mine up.
  15. Beautiful !! I lived outside of Newport, OR for 17 years and saw a ton of log trucks and you nailed it. I have a stalled Bison on the back burner but am slowly getting to it.
  16. I've been looking off and on for about a year now. Did a google search and keep checking ebay, but so far nothing. Thanks for the info, It will help me be more specific in my searches.
  17. Dont take me wrong, you will be hard pressed to find anywhere more breathtakingly beautiful than Oregon, between the Cascades and the Coast, and OHSU is one of the finest hospitals in the Nation, we had to take our son there for a couple of years to get some issues straightened out. BUT, Portland has one of the highest crime rates in the nation, its hard to navigate, and if you cant stand rain...and I mean LOTS of rain, you will have a problem. There is a high rate of depression in the Willamette valley due to all the grey weather in the winter. Some times you wont see the sun for a month. Its also one of the worst places to live if you suffer from allergies, it can literally kill you. The unemployment is much higher than what you find on reports. Talk to any
  18. Does anybody know if there is a resin caster who does a grill and tailgate set to turn the 1960,64,or 65 Chevy PU into a GMC ? TIA, Sam
  19. I was born and raised in Oregon. Lived there for 42 years and you couldn't pay me enough to live in or around Portland. Dont, repeat, DONT move anywhere in Oregon for a job. There are none. It has the worst economy in the nation, and still has not started to recover. Some of the counties still have 33% unemployment, and its an EXPENSIVE place to live.
