MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. Fit and finish is spot on. Is all the glass installed?
  2. If you look at the Street Rodder pic, there are what appear to be threaded bolt holes at the ends of the frame to do that.
  3. Well after not traveling for work in over 6 yrs. I have been asked to do so. Not really pleased about that but I am pleased to be able to work. Not here in Chicago....
  4. Very nicely done. Would like to see the process for masking the black trim!
  5. Stance is now set, axle brackets to follow. I should mock up the dragster axle shouldn’t I?
  6. Instead of a perched support, I’m doing a variation of this elliptical front suspension and drop axle.
  7. I’ve been wanting to build a Tom Daniel’s show rod but without the expensive purchase. Soooo, I’ll build my own show rod! Z’d frame (blocks will be shaped), chopped pickup bed and roof, crazy wheel/tire combo and a double blower Olds engine. Should be easy, right?
  8. Quite interesting, I like it!
  9. Thanks Larry, now that I've built one, I'll have to try another!
  10. Here is the build thread, basically I wanted a flip nose and Ed at Drag City Castings makes some of the best resin available.
  11. Finished up and in Drag section under glass.
  12. Calling complete, for now. Drag City Castings body, chassis is stock minus the hood hinges. Tamiya clear coat, clear red over pink metallic.
  13. I authored a book about the loss of our son and how I coped with the tragedy. https://www.amazon.com/Comfortably-Disturbing-James-Ries/dp/B0B6XHXS7C/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=3B85CP78B6368&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.gzDkvkPbOP4IfzbWGu7KUS1RoudAV5wPgNXYTJH19luyWfxTRESJdCYPpzXgPdvS1Msh8SDT0kuUOnNTCuEnIQPoCLv4naKyjOdsrUt83PGiwKCDUuVN6i7p2jzs8gnBQHnbuhidorf1mP1ZZQ4lT1Yiso6hoEKIJkg8aSv5-IzTS_SKhRCVOJY-FlzDS3Jlb7hGb5zE-Ezvjva7Dgzzsw.ou7Ly0xedTVvIPdesAXaGm-iP2dgb17n2mGUVWbn7JQ&dib_tag=se&keywords=james+ries&qid=1756510842&sprefix=james+ries%2Cyourstore%2C196&sr=8-1
  14. I’d love to hear your review!
