Altered Ego

It's been awhile, but here is my latest build. This is a total copy of Swinger 340's Virginian build. Used the same Fremont Racing body and the same Moebius chassis, engine, etc. After messing up the first set of Fred Cady decals, I painted my stripes and ordered another set of decals. The only chassis modification I encountered was having to narrow the chassis behind the rear wheel wells. The resin body appears thicker in this area. The Fremont Racing body is by far the best resin body I have ever used. This was also my first attempt at building my own windows and was surprisingly easy.

I was looking for one of the Fremont Racing versions to build the Virginia Twister. I am finishing up two new AWB Plymouths now.

I have at least 4 Coronets planned. Have been collecting parts for awhile now.

It came out very nice. I love the aluminum work in the engine bay.

Scott8950, I love this build. I have been looking at these cars for inspiration to build one. This is one is very inspiring and very well done. Everything about this build is cool. Thank you for the details. I am thinking maybe a Yankee Peddler in the future.

I have a set of Huston Dixie Twister decals. I don't remember where I got them. They are supposed to be the '65 fastback car, but I put them on an AWB '65 Chevelle. I have held this set waiting for a good '64 Chevelle kit.

That is a pretty cool build idea and nicely done.

Very nice car and very nice job. Love the fenderwell headers. The Black Widow kit is the perfect base for a Jr Stock build.

The way you did the before and after is something straight out of CARtoons magazine. Something Krass and Bernie would build. I love it!

Another very well done early Super Stocker. I love all of the Super Stock, Factory Experimental and Altered Wheelbase builds on here. Keep up the good work everyone.

This is an amazing job. I am gathering parts to do one of my own. It will be with the Model King body and I am going to do it as one that was altered later in the season. The Warbucks body is a 1/25th body, so I am torn on what to use for a chassis. If anyone has any ideas, feel free to post them. I am thinking of the additional altered wheelbase and a straight axle. Mine won't be as nice or accurate as yours.

I am completely in awe. Jaw is totally dropped. Will be following.

Wow, nice car. I have been thinking of building some kind of '66 Cuda, but didn't think of this one. Very well done.

Pretty darn amazing, more details please

The black and white pics are great. Makes it look like an old magazine article. Nice car!

That is way too cool! I could easily see someone in the Southeast building something like that to run at some backwoods track. Definitely leave it like it is. Even the weathered paint makes it look like a survivor someone found in a barn.

I hope it's true. I have my eyes on the Duster. I have three builds planned.

Looking forward to building a few AWB Dodges and a couple of Maverick Pro Stocks.

The headers make the whole vibe come together. I love it.

So very cool, nice work

Very cool Dave, I love it. There is nothing wrong with taking some creative liberties.

Looks great, I didn't even attempt the stripes. I just went a completely different way. I admire the attempt and the result!

Wow! As always, very nice job. Awesome detail work notching the chrome trim around the door!

Going to agree with Horror Show and expand on his recommendation: Gasser straight axles, drop axles and leaf springs. Would also like Hilborn four port bug catcher injectors and Thunderbolt traction bar/crossmember pieces.

I agree, and the luster really didn't return until the 500" ear in 1982. Although, the IHRA Mountain Motor cars were very cool.
