I think I found my Huckleberry. I first pulled out my 66 Nova as I've heard that subframe was good to use and I then pulled out the 67 Chevelle. Still not sure about this major mod. I pulled out my 56 Ford (Foose) pickup and the wheels fit like a glove with only some minor mods needed to get the stance I want. Whatya think of these wheels and tires and the stance?

Got this one done fella's. This was a super nice kit and I really enjoyed building this one. I had no fitment issues and I liked the kit so well I bought a 2nd. The paint is FolkArt Basil Green & Coffee Bean acrylic from HL. I cleared it with Rust-Oleum Crystal Clear Acrylic Lacquer and it was then wet sanded & polished with Novus 2. I found some wire for the winch in the wife's craft stash so I took what I need which wasn't much but I'll see how long it takes her to say something to me ☺ She don't miss a thing. As always fella's, comment welcome. On to the next build.

Ok fella's. I'm throwing the towel in and calling this one done. I'll post pic Under Glass shortly. -
You got a point there Ray. We'll see.
-
I appreciate the offer Rich and I will keep it in mind. I just finished my 34 pickup and haven't gotten deep into the 61 Impala yet.
-
Thank's for the info James. I'm going to look in my stash and see what other tires I may have that are in-between the stock and the big meats.
-
Yup....I don't want to miss up a kit either. Let me know about the Chevelle.
-
Bad looking 50 Mercury and the move "Cobra" was pretty bad as well. Pretty kewl looking hub caps. Nicely done Mario.
-
WOWSER.....good looking 34 Ford. That will get you to the drug store and back in a hurry. Those bomber seats look great. Can't really tell, is that a skull for the shifter knob?
-
Thanks Tim. I don't really get into the heavy mods like you fella's do but maybe some day I'll give it a go.
-
I was thinking the Chevelle or the Nova but I don't really know. I'm pretty much a box stock builder and this may be out of my league.
-
I'd like to see them on there to James but I think it would require cutting the frame out on both sides.
-
Nicely done. That color looks really sharp.
-
That is a nice looking 36. Awesome build.
-
Great looking ride. Well done.
-
Nice Dave. You just don't see many stock Henry J's that often. What size shoehorn did it take to get that engine in there ?. Very well done.
-
That red is some good looking eye candy.
-
Well.....I appreciate the confidence booster but I'm not sure. In the morning when I head out to the garage I'll be pulling all the parts out of the box and ill ponder over it and it may take a 3rd cup of coffee ?
-
Man that interior looks good. Nice work.
-
Nice Ron. You going to start a build thread?
-
Coming soon fella's. Finishing up a build then I'll be on this one. Going to try my hand at the AMT 61 Bubble top. I have a bottle of Delta Ceramcoat Navy Blue that might work for this one. I'd sure like to get these big ole meats on the back end. Don't know if it's in me or not. If you have built a 61 and modified the rear end to hold bigger tires let me see some pick. The stock slicks look so small.
