welcome hemi

welcome hemi

Welcome aboard Grumpy....you are a familiar name in my books from another site.

Bro.....I dont know what kind of drugs you were on when you built this ....but I sure hope that you have lots of extras to pass around....that is OFF THE HOOK SICK ......WOW!!!!!!!!!

Yeah i agree....nice work on the conversion....sure makes that ....get the **** out of my way mobile

nice build...I like old school horsepower

takes lots of skill to mate to cars that have 40+ years difference and make it look really COOOOOOOL

nice clean build with great detailing....excellent work

Now theres a car I need to have in my town....it would definately take care of the idiots that give me road rage

NAILED IT!!!!!!!!!

seen it before on another site I think......AWSOM WORK

what a style and a half.....that is slick. WOW!!!!!!!!

No matter the spellin'....this car is wild.... Nice color choice too

If I remember correctly, your bus is a replica of a 1:1 or very close to it....the VW's ROCK

Im amazed to see how everything blends in together Excellent design

roll cage is definately scratch building time...as for the seats....Maybe late 80's early 90's corvette seats or seats out of a die cast car..like a tuner car....they usually have the racing seats hope this helps

I based this build on a 1:1 car hat I had seen years ago in Truckin' magazine. I started with the Boyd's Smoothster kit by Testors. Molded in the chrome trimming, Cut the body behind the drivers seat and finished it off as a pick up by scratchbuilding the rear half of the model including widening the rear fenders to accomodate the box. The consol was scratch built, and the roof was shortened to fit the new bod style. Got rid of the front suspension that came with the kit and replaced it with a more accurate independent set up. Brakes are the 15 inch discs by Pegasus, and the tires and wheels are the 19" chrome T's with big and little tires also by Pegasus. A ford motor ws used with a 6 pack set up with resin cast air cleaners. The paint is 2003 Lambourghini Alta Tangerine Pearl Orange with a touch of Sunset Russet Pearl.

WOOOOOOWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! I Love It!!!!!!!!! Nice work.

My Stephen King inspired Cougar. A real fun build. This has been my best year for modeling since my teens. However due to financial problems I may be losing my home so I doubt 09 will be as good. Good luck to everyone in the coming year.

tell me about it, at 298lbs....i dont care how a car is built....it does damage when you lean on them Thanks for the great feedback Bear

If I had to choose one....I would have to lean on this one

Whom ever has the screwed up copies....hang on to them....they will be PRICELESS Sorry for all of the guys who's info was drastically mixed up and published with the builds.

My Mrs. always supported my hobby for these simple reasons... ...I dont spend money in bars ...I dont spend money in strip joints ...I dont spend money on booze ...keeps me out of trouble ...and at the least she knows where to find me if im not on the main floor ...IN THE DOG HOUSE (aka; hobby room)

Hey Shannon, I remember most of these builds and glad to see them again.
