You know Ira, you come with some of the most crazy ideas that only you could pull off. Where you get this stuff at I really don't know but you manage to put the "WOW" factor out there big time in a most intriguing and appealing kind of way. Great work bud on a cool and definitely unique build there bubba!

The color choice is nice and the stance and wheels top it all off. Cool and well painted build there Tim!

Man that's a great looking build there Frank! I'd lean towards painting the tail gate red to compliment that great build though.

Looks good there Walter!

Looks just fabulous Larry! Nice brushed on paint job there fella!

Thanks JC! I'll keep that one in mind for future dual quad applications buddy.

That's funny. I had the same experience. There was an article with a picture of a car there but it sure aint a Barracuda! lol

Looks like something that got left in the commode and needs to be flushed. Good grief!!

I didn't much like the seating that came in the original boxing (and never really have to tell you the truth)..... So I upgraded to the 1/24 Monogram 55 F-100 kit seat which looks a helluva lot more up-to-date and a lot neater in appearance. (Man I'm glad I bought that kit in the beginning to supplement this build. lol) After a lot of clean up on the seat platform I washed both parts this morning and they'll be in the primer stage by later this morning.

Holy Schmokes!!! How in the wide world of sports did I miss this? Outstanding work on this beauty Tom! Really nice!

Thanks Rob, Dave and Carl. Not much in the way of pics but have been working on touching up and clean up on the flocking and foot pedals. I got the brake and clutch pedals painted up yesterday, I ordered a bare foot PE gas pedal this morning and got the gear shift painted and installed today. I'll end up using a steering wheel I got from my Barris T Buggy kit. I may acquire another steering column. I'm just not "feelin" the one that's in the kit boxing.

LOL!!! ...............................wait a minute...............Yikes!

I'm in on this one Joel. Progress is good so far.

First off that's a clean build you've got going there JD! Secondly , thanks for that great idea concerning the bed mat. I'm considering that idea for use with my 56.

That.........is all too familiar. lol. My wife was looking under our bed for a missing hamster the other day. I was in the kitchen and heard her in a loud voice ask," There's model kits under our bed now???!!!!"

Started work on the "carpet" yesterday and spot corrected this morning. I still have a little trimming left to do but I'm all good with it. While I'm at it the dash is pretty much finished. A little trimming here and there on the chrome BMF and we'll be set there.

I really appreciate you guys great comments and encouragement. I should have some more pics in the coming days. I'm just trying not to take a pic of every single update.

You sir..............are tha freekin man!! Got it on order already!!!! Thanks Mike!

I'm getting set for the completion of my WIP and am going to display it on a clear acrylic riser with a mirror underneath. I saw some cool end pieces at either end of the display between the clear riser and the mirror and wondered if anybody has any ideas on where to look or how to pull this off. Here's the pic. Thanks for any help that you can be

Well I've got the fuel line installed and routed. I used a pin for chrome fuel line and coated it with some Tamiya Smoke X-19 to give it that true metal look and made a 90 degree banjo fitting to go onto the fuel rail at the carbs. Check it out.... I started on the inner fender wells yesterday by removing all that nasty molded on detail and cleaned it up and painted it. Before: And after. (This still needs to cure out so I can polish it up and make it into a mirror finish but you can see the difference so far)

Man that's clean...........Wow!!!

JC you just made me feel 100% better about leaving it all alone. You sir, are tha man!!

I made two attempts to remove the fuel rail before I had to weigh the cost of going any further. It wouldn't come off so I had to decide if it was worth destroying all the linkage and all by a carburetor coming loose during the removal of the rail. That answer would be not just "No" but "Hell No!". I'll make my way from here and pull it all off somehow. I just can't bring myself to risk throwing all that effort away. I did sand all of the molded in detail from the inner fender wells and washed 'em to get ready for paint

Thanks for the reply JC. Man I really appreciate your input. I'll more than likely go with the fuel block idea. You guys are da bomb!

Now THAT'LL work!!! Thanks Ed!!
