  1. Nice looking wagon. I like the blue on the body and the "Poverty Caps". Just started a build on a 63 wagon myself.
  2. Welcome aboard.
  3. That's going to be a pretty kewl looking little Funny car James. Love that color.
  4. That's a good looking 55 Chevy. Nice job.
  5. Thanks. Haha...I know what you mean Joe.
  6. Thanks Buddy. I'll see if I can get this build to the finish line ☺
  7. I had to trim the rear tubs & pan a little to get the chassis to drop inside the body. I also had to shorten the rear axle housing so the big ole meats would turn inside the body.
  8. Thanks Dennis. I'm still looking at installing an engine. I'd have to get a BIG shoe horn to get it in there ☺
  9. The wheel base looks pretty good. I'll now more once I get the front suspension set up but it looks spot on.
  10. I picked up this kit at Wally World last week so I thought is would make a good candidate for a Pro Street. I'm using the chassis from the AMT 66 Nova Pro Street kit which took very little mods to slide it under the wagon. Just a quick sanding of the rear tubs with the dremel and it fit pretty good. I have a couple engines if I decide to not go curbside. This is still early on so I'm still in the thinking stage.
  11. Nice Craig. I've just modified my 66 Nova chassis to fit under the 63 Chevy II wagon. Getting ready to get under way with my Pro Street build. I'll be following this thread.
  12. Looking good James. I cut the little peg off the frame where it located in the hole in the oil pan and moved the engine towards the firewall. Make sure your hood will still close all the way. When you spin the rad around the cap is up a little high to fully close the hood.
  13. Welcome aboard Buddy. Take a stroll around and settle in for a long ride.
  14. Nice 53 Ford Mario. Love that color. I really like that body style.
  15. Nice looking Chevelle. Very clean looking build.

    Great looking little Hot Rod. Love the Jag rear suspension setup. Nicely done.
  17. I believe this was a 1950 Oldsmobile.
  18. Thanks fellows. Much appreciated.
  19. Man oh man Buddy. That purple pops against that white. Nice paint.
  20. Looks good Tom. Welcome to the playground.
  21. Thanks fellows. I'm on the road now but when I get back I'll assess what I'm going to do with the 55.
  22. Thanks for the comments fellows.
  23. Nice looking. Great job
