Interviewed by Model Car Muse
chris chabre replied to chris chabre's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Thank you. Were making memories while we can -
Doug Whyte interviewed me in May 2023 about a few builds and some survivors I had brought to the CSRA show. The interview got posted to the Model Muse You Tube channel tonight. I HIGHY recommend watching Dougs channel as its a family affair. I joked that they would go into my cabinet as is, In typical fashion, I put them away for awhile and thats where theyve sat. Since the show, Ive collected a ton more survivors (the show table was a small sampling of my collection) and started a number of builds. Life has taken a turn for the worst as my son was diagnosed with a terminal illness in June of this year. As you can imagine, everything has stopped while we attempt to live and adjust to our new normal. Im slowly trying to get back into mocking up/building but my heart hasnt been in it. I always try to bring something "new" to the CSRA show as its the only show I go to Being that the next show is in the spring, I hope to have another project build there as its tradition. What itll be, Im not sure yet. Thanks for reading/watching.

this is gonna be killer!!! Ill send over some photos of a build Im doing -
grabbed one of my drag city Tudors and did a quick mock up of a 60s drag build. idk when I'll get back to it but at least it's visually there I know someone will mention the slight sag in the windshield, that's on me, I wrapped it back up a bit tight and put it away. a little warm water and it'll be good as new

Dirt track vette

Im not a vette guy, but this is AWESOME!!!! All the dirt tracks around us have long since been gone, and my father was a drag car guy but When I saw "Six Pack" as a kid in the 80s, I immediately fell in love with that style car
