That is the advantage of that Plasti-Dip stuff I mentioned Nick, you can paint that whole car for a couple hundred dollars and not even need to mask it or have any special place to do the painting.

Better yet, Plasti-Dip!

So long as the car is built to run, sure, but if it's a different "Pro-Fairgrounds" car, no.

I saw a late model Golf like that, I'm still trying to figure out if he was fixing a wreck or trying to make it look like that VW Callico Rabbit commercial.

There's one that isn't all that far from Harry or myself, maybe 10 minutes from home for me, not sure for Harry though.

The more I see the, the more I like them.....and I've seen a few of them out in St. Charles and Geneva! Talked to a customer a few weeks back that has one with the big battery in it and he told me that they took it on a road trip to Detroit and made it all the way from here to Ann Arbor, MI on one charge! If I had the money, I would love to have one as a daily driver!

Forgot about this one until reading about it cleaning up at NHTSA crash tests

That original post kinda made it sound like it was still owned by McQueen at the time it was totalled.

I'm glad they didn't, they look bad enough without the nonsense done to this one added on top of it.

Trust me, that curve and rake don't help that much.

Already there Harry

Is it me, or does that hood and grill protrusion remind anybody else of this guy?

The same can be said about a bar of Dial soap Minus the headlights and windshield though

That wouldn't be too bad once you ripped out that $5,000 stereo, sold it, replaced it with something more reasonable, then used the money from the stereo for more off road parts to put on the truck.

Haven't heard of "swoopy" being used to describe "smooth". Although that Porsche I wouldn't refer to as "swoopy" so much s I would "bar of soap". Now the style that James Dean was killed in would be a different story

Great looking Hilux Joe, still building the custom Tamiya Semi's too?

Now that you mention it, that is almost the Concrete Barricade Beige Metallic Toyota Camry of Hot Rods. Nothing truely offensive, yet nothing to make you want to stop and look either............just safe and almost boring. Never thought I would refer to a '32 Ford as boring?!

500hp 4.5l, Twin Turbocharged, V-8 and RWD http://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/cadillac-elmiraj-concept-500-hp-21st-century-eldorado-013419949.html

I like the box art!

There's a joke there......I just can't bring my self to post it

Every time I watched the show, they were filming at the same tracks that Pinks All Out was filmed at and around the same time.....Plus Ken Herring was a part of both shows, it would make sense that they shot both at the same time.

I think that went away with Pinks All Out, looked like the two shows were tied together.

This!!!!!!!! If you're going to be blowing that kind of green, why not go for an GM LS Motor, Ford Mod Motor, or late model Chrysler Hemi with matching trans too?

Even he has referred to the Mustang as a "Secretary's Car"

I'm still thinking about taking an early 2.2 Turbo 1 from one of the AMT Daytona kits and putting it in one of the AMT Model T kits. Got both kits from the bad old days (RC2) and a resin Track-T nose just for fun......just got to do it now.
