A great take on a modern rod. It looks perfect.

That looks fantastic. MArvelous work on the seat.

I like it very much. Great work.

I also don't listen to music when I'm building although I will put on a favorite movie and listen to that in the background.

Where this would no doubt be a very desirable model, I'm left worndering how anyone along the mail route would know what is in the package?

A great story. I hope that she and the Comet have many more years in the fast lane.

I had a 75 as my first car. I loved it. I had a friend with some automotive skills and we put some time and money into that Olds 350. It had a nice growl when we were done. I miss it. I'd love to find another.

The Man with the Golden Gun, a Roger Moore 007 flick had a great chase scene with two AMC's and a wicked river jump.

Fanastic work. i really would rather have seen that done as a shiny show car type rod, but I can't deny the craftsmanship here. Looks great.

Just gotta share this. Sad and funny at the same time. http://jalopnik.com/5273915/new-chevy-cama...r-wheels-stolen

Hey what a novel idea! A job! I don't recall Kevin ever mentioning he had one of those. That would pay for some postage wouldn't it? I worked a part time job and was a full time student back in the day. You can't tell me in a city of 180,000 in south California, there's no jobs. Micky D's is always hiring.

What does school and the governor got to do with getting to the post office?

Hmm........I'll have to kick this one around some. I'm leaning towards the 67 Charger that was built on Overhaulin for the SEMA show in 2005. the wheels might be a pain in the rear though. http://www.internetsalespartner.com/67chipfoosecharger.html Yeah, apparently it's for sale.

Kevin the tighter you make these rules the more people you are going to lose. How about- Build a replica of any car built by any famous hot rod builder, but you may not use a pre-existing kit of the show-car in question ala Ala Kart, Predicta etc. Sound good?

Boy they sure do look great in purple don't they? Great work.

Oh VERY nice. I nice new spin on the truckster idea.

So basicly what your saying is lets build a show car without buying a kit of one. Sounds do-able. Would cars built on Overhaulin' and Wrecks to Riches fit in this catagory too?

Hmmmmmm. Anti-zombie machine CBP anyone?

I think I'd go hang out in the graveyard after the outbreak. I mean why would any self respecting zombie go there?

Okay then pencil me in with a box stock build up of the drag version of this 68 Charger kit. I do believe that will put me in the right period yes?

3. MUST HAVE PHOTO OF THE 1:1 OF THE ERA. I do have plans for a vintage 60's/70's drag racer however, I only have kit supplied decals. If you retain this #3 rule people will have to make thier own decals to complete the build and not everyone has the ability to do so. I recommend that you change the rule so that any fictional car will do as long as it looks like a period correct car. If this can be changed, add my name to the roster.

I'm not trying to be a wise guy here, but Google images is you best bet. Try some of the aftermarket companies (advertising on this website) for fuel lines, pre-wired distrubutors, coolant hoses and the like to make your job easier.

That is some great work. However I'd really like to see this as a traditional hot rod rather than something with huge modern wheels.

A couple of shots of my first scratch built surf board. It's in white primer at the moment. I'm still kicking around some pattern ideas for them. I'm going to do a second one with a slightly different design and a bit longer. They were done with 2mm styrene sheet and 1mm sheet for the fin. For cutting them out of the thick styrene, tin snips are your best friend. I'm having a bit of issue with the hinged doors. The hinges work just fine, but the holes in the doors and body for the hinges are over large and will need some careful filling. More soon.

It's always a great feeling when you finish up a kit and say, "That's my best yet!" Great job on the Caddy.
