  1. got the chassis painted up with everything installed. painted up the interior and installed the seats Might finish this weekend
  2. I like the way you think. This is gonna be killer
  3. That's a great color
  4. Good stuff! Like the 3D printing. Great wheels and suspension
  5. I scabbed together a great differential much like I did for the '40. The drive shaft that came with the kit will work without any mods. I know, it's a little early in the game to mount the taillights but I got anxious and had to see how they would look. You know i was never really big on the prewar cars until now.

    I didnt have the taillight assembly so I had to make them. They look good from 5 feet away. They will do until I can find a set. Started work on the exhaust. Glasspacks in the lower picture. Its styrene tube just bigger than the 10 guage wire. I am really enjoying this car.

    Fabbed up some disc brakes from flat washers and scrap plastic bits Flathead detailed up with plug wires, custom distributor, coil and fuel line fabricated a differential and aluminum tube drive shaft and installed the power plant. Next for the chassis will be rear shocks, radiator hoses and exhaust. Ill most likely employ the 10 gauge wire for that. Sometimes junkyard builds can be fun.
  9. You've had a great year. I'm glad your eye troubles are behind you
  10. Looking good Jeremy
  11. I was going to say there a lot of similarities between the Lindgerg and the AMT
  12. Wow, you got a lot done for only 6 hours of bench time. It's looking good.

    I'm not sure but by looking at how it goes together with the bucket type interior it appears to be AMT. There are no markings.
  14. Great job on the suspension. I love to see articulated front wheels

    I went out to the junkyard and found the flathead that went in the -40 Ford pickup. A quick splash of paint and it's almost ready to go. Gonna wire this one up for spark and fuel. No heat. Also found a drive shaft that'll do as well as a radiator. I detailed up the fenders up a bit by adding the bright work. I'm surprised I had these pieces. Of course the lenses were askew. I had to fix that.
  16. Great looking Buick. Outstanding photography
  17. Incredible achievements John! I would say quality and quantity happened this year! Congrats on the awards. The 65 Impala is beautiful
  18. Ooooh, that's mean! Great build!
  19. What a variety of builds. Really dig that wagon
