  3. Ok guys i'm ready! This is my frist pro-street build i have a 86 monte carlo i got from a car show.still wrapped and opened it to find out it has been worked on before someone cut the engine compament out.So i'll take the monte and remove the rear stub out of a 66 nove pro-street(which is not pro-street with slicks but thanks to good guys on the forums i got some big treads) and put it in the monte. (I HOPE) been watching the good dr's videos they really helped.so i post the pics and get to work thanks jamie
  4. Well i must be the red neck you speak of had one in high school great mud truck.Very cool build and scenery.i really like the bikini top.wish i would have done that to mine when it became a woods truck.
  5. very nice build. I have the same issue with painting body's.I love the motor and drive train painting then bang my head when i come to the body lol. Keep it up man.
  6. i dont oject!i want to see that thing done up. You have that right Al i think i have everything lined up and ready to go with mock up. My 1st pro street build not box stock.so it will be my 1st rear stub install should be good.The good doctor's video have really helped out so will be sharing pics when i start on her. Thanks Jamie

  9. jeff that too funny. I my self would not get the batmobile kit.I think i have a plan for the 66 nova i will be taken the tubbs out and put them in a 86 monte carlo.because that is hopeful someday 1:1 cars but take it up a notch to pro street specs.When that is all said and done i should been able to take that rear stub i remover from the 86 monte carlo and graf it to the 66 nove chassis and make a nice street drive. thanks jamie.

  12. thanks richard i think i will be going with the lite blue stocker color and yes it came with white and black striping which makes it super nice.
  13. very nice build i like the black on yellow one of my favorite color combo's.what did you do for the chrome strips?
  14. i got this kit at a local car show and been really happy with it other then the headers were a pain. This is my frist camaro build open to all comments thanks for looking.
  15. AL-thanks bud i was thinking the same thing loli have yet to use wanted or traden post yet will have to give it a try thanks
  16. looking good guys wish i had some big treds.. i got a grand national`kit just sitting think it work make a good pro street ride. keep up the great work love watchin some day will have to step up. but told my self not buying a new kit just for meats.lol
  17. i have just started my 1st trailer the other day nothing really nice just something a everyday shady tree mechanic/weekend warrior would be towing i started with rectangle stock and I-beam/H-beam and just cut and paste until it looked ok lol most fun i have had in a bit modelin now i'm workin on the wood bed where i'm take balsam wood and .060 H-column should be ok lol we'll have to see
  18. straight with clapper lol "flippy things" would be nice too. i have wanted to do a mud truck with straight pipes but open and the make small coffee cans with a wood stick on the side. then they would sit on top of the tall pipe to work as a raincap. seen many old timers use this at the local truck stop when i was younger. dave i like it i know what you meen about the ones with slits with them the shield looks less bulkie. not sure how i would do it maybe a small cutting tool on a rotor tool of some kind.if you get it let me know how please. and changing up that bend may look good too. waitin to see what you got.
  19. Hey man like the idea i know what you mean you see alot of that up here in mn i think over all hight should come down some.and top pipe little shorter.The size is good unless you throw a oil burnner in it and go with some BIG stacks lol but that could be just me good building keep it up
