Good looking build. Really like the gold on the quarters.

I'v been working on one of the baldwin kits (the green one) and have invested alot of time getting this thing to fit together properly. The things that everyone have mentioned in areas of concern are spot on. One area that is a big problem is the winshield to dash. I have found that trimming the front of the dash to give clearence at the bottom of the windsield has the best results to get the interior bucket to fit properly. It's the dash that don't fit, not he windshield. So before you go cutting up bottom of the windshield, give that a try. It worked out really good on my project. Speedpro

Dennis, At this point the tail lights are being worked out. These are the last modified parts that need to get done. Once those are finished, I'll have just a couple small things to work on. But if you are asking if I have plans for another build, I can't answer that right now. It has crossed my mind though. Speedpro

Got the exhaust alcladed and put in place. Gas tank is being redone as it had to be modified Speedpro

Nice build of a finicky kit.

How cool! Perfect the way it is. Nice save.

Very Nice! Built one long ago. Seeing this makes me want to build another one. Love the paint color and the engine details. Well done!

Very nice! Clean build throughout. Really like the color. Good job getting after the hood inserts. Well done.

One of the nicest jimmy's I'v seen. Great color choice too. Mounting the top the way you did really makes such a big difference in overall appearance. Really nice work!

Very nice! Super clean work.

You captured the essence of "TROG" perfectly. Well done RRR

Don't see too many of these. Very nice clean build!

Nice '55! like your choice of colors. Very clean work!

How fun would that be. Nice build!

In '76 I was in the usmc stationed in hawaii. At the time I had a '67 nova gasser. Was sitting at a stop light in front of a car dealership and this guy came running out and said "You got to come in and see what we have in our show room". So I did. And guess what they had sitting there? Thats right, A corvair with a small block chevy sitting in the back seat! The guy wanted to make a deal with me for my nova. I thought about it, but drove away in my nova. Your build reminds me of that day. Very well done and thanks for bringing back a fun memory for me.

Really nice job. Interesting color

Very nice build. love the color

I think I got the exhaust squared away. Having it go over the gas tank wasn't working, So I worked it around the gas tank instead. To get the pipes that are coming out over the rear end going in the right direction was pretty easy, but did take some time working very slowly using only my fingers. Using the left over exhaust from a '29 roadster kit I was able to get it to clear the tank and exit where I thought it would look good. The pipes were joined together with pins and super glue. Having to massage the corners of the gas tank that was recently alcladed was not something I wanted to do but was necessary to fit the tail pipes. So I get to redo that again. Thinking the exhaust will be alclad stainless steel. I'm glad this is done. Big shout out to MCW paints as there was alot of test fitting going on and the paint held up very well. As for the tail lights, I'v been playing with the idea of '59 caddy lenses in the '29 housing. Will have to wait and see where this goes.. I'll check back in when I get some more done........

Very Nice! Ya, I like the IRS, the extended cab, the ford V6 and more. But the RH drive conversion is cool. Was that easy to do? The trailer and pedal car look perfect. Great work!

RRR, You are such a talented builder. And it blows me away how fast you put a pile of parts together. Always looking forward to what you are going to build next. Beautiful job on this one. I think your choice of color really makes the car. And the engine details finish off under the hood nicely. I like this alot! Speedpro

Beautiful build! I really like the engine details and those wire wheels. Well done Speedpro

Very nice clean build!

Wow! Very nice, Very clean. I can here the cackle from here! Speedpro

Nice digger! Really like the paint work on this. Thanks for showing this. Speedpro

I agree with everyones comment about building this on the '56 body style. It too is my favorite out of the tri-five line. Excellent paint and detail work. Outstanding build. Speedpro
