    I'm really liking this build. Great stance.
  9. I lke that color on the 59. Looking good so far.
  10. I'm having a tough time getting the front & rear wheels in the location that I want. All 4 wheels are still sticking out to far so I had to sand the heck out of the axle and front spindles. I ended up sanding so much on the spindles off that I had to pin the wheels to the spindles. Even with the mock-up it still doesn't look right to me.
  11. Thanks Kyle. The engine may change as I broke the front pulley setup while I was cuttiing it off the tree.

    That sure is purdy. Nice set of wheels & tires from the parts box.
  13. Very clean and detailed build. Fantastic job man.
  14. Man oh man. So much eye candy. Great detail work. Love how this one came out.
  15. I always liked the 67 body style. Great looking build.
  16. Mighty fine lookin there Greg. That engine looks nice setting down in all that white. Great looking build dude.
  17. That's one Crazy looking Lincoln but I'm diggin it. Nice build.
  18. Really kewl looking build. That engine just pops down inside the engine bay. turned out really sharp.
  19. Thanks. Yup, couldn't make up my mind so I just pulled the trigger on this one since I had it in my hand moving it.
  20. Thanks Gary. The weather has been so nice today I just got after this one.
  21. I've made these tubs for the box a few time so it only took about 1 hr to get this far. Just a little clean up and I'm ready to cut the bed then glue them in.
  22. Thanks Doyle. I may switch to some air breathers instead of the bug catcher.
  23. Ok fellows.....I think I have found my next victim to throw up on the bench. I bought this kit off fleabay some time back and I think now is the time to get after it. I found these Big & little wheels & tires in the parts box and yeah.....It's going to require tubs for the rear tires. I was really looking for a easy build this time around but I don't think there is and easy build. At least not for me. I have a 572 Blown engine with a Tunnel Ram setup from the Iceman that I'm wanting to put in the business end. For now, I'm thinking the Tamiya X-3 Royal Blue for the body color. I have already started so trial fitting and things are looking good so far. I got the sink holes in the box filled and sanded down then assembled. I had to relocate the front axle on top of the leaf springs and I have some lowering blocks for the rear axle. This should set the ride height where I want it but only time will tell.
