  1. After sanding down the black a bit, I applied a couple of coats of Duplicolor white primer. Then on to the Poppy Red spraybomb.
  2. I'm throwing together a curbside ramptruck to haul the '66 AWB Fairlane drag car that I've been working on. The cab is from a diecast WIX bank. The bed was made from scratch. The wheels and tires are from Scenes Unlimited, awesome products btw!
  3. Race cars need matching ramp trucks! This one got bathed in Poppy Red this weekend.
  4. This one is going to be a bit different than the Prestone car. Stay tuned.
  5. The front suspension is just about done, the front wheels are finally mounted. I do need to narrow the wheel backs, the track width is a bit too wide.
  6. I built my first solder headers!...can't wait to do some more. The collector wasmade from a straw.
  7. Still working on the hood, bodywork ins't my fav thing to do....
  8. Thx for the comments guys!! I did a bunch more work on the Fairlane this weekend. Made up some spark plug boots from WD-40 straws, and added a M.A.D. distributor and wire set.......
  9. Thx for posting that, good stuff there. The tall injectors look cooler too.
  10. Back on the bench after the long holiday break, making the injector tubes fit...
  11. I found it on the Bay...... http://stores.ebay.com/Mustang-Mom-s-Model-Supplies?_rdc=1
  12. I made the mistake of asking when the F100s will be available. I had to walk away from the table.
  13. Chassis is painted and assembly is ongoing. Injector stacks will require some notching the cowl panel.
  14. Thx Steve....I have a bunch of time into it!
  15. It's coming along, building a matching ramp truck too....
  16. Thx! Yes it will be RHD like the real car it's based one......
  17. Very nice work!! I wanted to tu-tone the interior on one of my early Comets, but ran out of talent.
  18. The modified roll cage came from an AMT '69 Torino Cobra kit. Yes, it's right hand drive!
  19. I made a jig to make the front upper support bar, it's similar to the 60s stock car. It also serves to support the body under the front fenders.
  20. The front support bars are next. The Comet kits bars didn't fit, so I had to make these up too.
  21. The front suspension is from the AMT '66 Fairlane, slightly modified.
