These are the cab options in the pile of truck parts I had bought. the one on the left is obviously different and is the only one with a separate hood. The second one must have been built as a tilt hood as it and the fenders are one piece.

Playing with the suspension and different size wheels to obtain a mild hind up stance. After all, we have to allow for settlement under load.

I like that idea as well as the "beginning of the completion". Somehow sounds familiar.

Nice display. Still can't get over your paint jobs.

Love the car.....and the shop.

Hola Moses!!!! as my late brother in law used to say.

Here's another one, newer but still impressive. Pacific with DDV12, Allison transmission and 3 trailers.

Thank you sir. This Dio thing has provided me with many hours of entertainment..

Thank you guys for the compliments on my never ending project. I'm happy that you like it. From now on, I'll likely stick to less ambitious projects.

Time to do another machine. Actually two who go together: a rod honing machine and a rod and cap grinder. Went to the shop for photos, sketches and measurements.

I took photos of my garage and had them printed on 11x17 paper. It is about 1:24 at that stage. I then use it as a background for photos.

All of the above, more or less. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/89965-1934-chevrolet-master-5-window-coupe/

Welcome Carlo. Looking forward to see your work.

Here t'is.

Tubing with slices of sprue. Filed the tubing vertically and glued the discs to it. I should be able to glue any wheelback to this.

Turns out the cab I had selected is different. It has the firewall molded to it while the others have the firewall molded to the dash like the Ed Roth kit. So I won't use it here. Started making up some leaf springs and a tube front axle. Repaired the rear of the frame.

Those are my granddaughter's. She was checking my vitals earlier today.

Dan Popeko's (59 IMPALA) build of a "well used" 41 Chevy pickup prompted me to try that type of weathering. I've never tried anything like that before. A while back, I'd bought a pile of junkyard pickup parts on eBay. I decided to dig in there. Selected the red one which is the worst gluebomb of the bunch.

Go ahead. I don't charge royalties. I am flattered actually.

Can I have it?

What a generous offer. You forgot to mention the address. Actually, would you give me a week or two, it might grow on me.

FTB has changed the display trio to two OHC engines which were developed for NASCAR and one to compete in the muscle car market but neither of them made it as intended.

I forgot the mirror. Harry wouldn't like that. Better make one up.

Final assembly with the start to the luggage rack beside it. I made a reduced photo to use as a template. Here it is with my trademark smears, smudges and nicks. The glue in the headlights will dry clear....eventually. It is supposed to look like this.: I would like to thank everyone for the kind words throughout this long build. Please remind me not to attempt this again.

X2.
