  1. Engine bares a lot of similarities to the GM LS family.. Almost looks like 2 LS engines were set front to back. Still an amazing feat to accomplish a working 4K+ hp engine..
  2. Street Outlaws - The Cutty.
  3. Im impressed.. Very nice.
  4. Very clean build.. One of my favorite vette body styles.. Awesome job.
  5. I too like the engine compartment and turbos.. What kit did they come from or did you build them aftermarket? Nice build and detail.
  6. Always like see the dioramas.. Awesome job.
  7. Gotta love the body lines of those cars.. That paint in super nice.. Great job.
  8. I bought a new '03 WRX sedan. Really like that car.. Your wagon makes me want to own another one one of these days.. Great job
  9. Nice. I like that color. What is the name of it?
  10. Very nice.. Love the color and detail.
  11. Love the white makes it look very clean.
  12. Awesome build.. Too bad I can only see one image.
  13. That is very nicely done.. Love the wood grain look..
  14. Very interesting build.. I like the lines of this car.. Very cool.
  15. Danish you might want to look at this whole thread for inspiration.. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/64-65-comets-old-drag-cars-lets-see-pictures.335534/page-142 Another cool pic Although Im with Tony as being a Chevy guy but I wouldnt want a Chevy (454) engine in this style of Mercury (Ford). I would find another Ford engine to use to make it look vintage if you are wanting that gasser look. Heck if you wanted to be really different stick a Ford Powerstroke in there with the gasser look.. Now that would be interesting.. How many gassers you see that could "roll coal"? ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_coal) Just throwing out ideas.. A cammer engine is a single overhead cam (SOHC) 427ci Ford engine that they built back in the 60's. It is unique by the SOHC and cylinder head design and it was and still is an awesome engine. 7.3L Powerstroke
  16. Beautiful car.. Excellent work.
  17. Another excellent trader. Thank you again Intmd8r!!
  18. Nice decals on the 39.. My Nomad must have been built at the same shop!!.. Caprice is very cool btw. Huge thumbs up.
  19. Thanks for the response.. Yes I am beginning to think that polish is going to be more tricky than I had originally thought.. The crappy thing of it all is I only have one bottle of the color I want to use and according to the little lady; the company no longer makes that color.. I might try a lower pressure.. I also sprayed my first couple attempts outside so I may have been fighting wind.. Ill have to setup a paint booth inside the garage and see if that helps. Thanks again for the tips!
  20. Inspiration maybe..??..
  21. Nice!! What wheels are those? Also do you have a pic of the underside and was this a tubbed kit or did you modify a kit? Looks great and I really like that color.
  22. Thanks guys. Not the greatest build and hopefully not my best..
