What kit did you get the Mr. Horsepower decals from?

Inspiring build! Where did you get the blower case, injectors and hat your using?

I like my Badger paint mixer quite a bit.

Thank you! No, its TS-31, Bright Orange. My current build I'm using Bright Red, they are very close.

Thank you for the compliment!

I was literally a 15 yr old, midwestern boy reading about it, and all the other stuff going on, in the magazines wishing I was out there. We had family in Hermosa Beach that we visited regularly, I would take magazines with me in hopes I could talk someone into taking me by Fat Jack's, Pete and Jake's or Boyd's, but I guess I wasn't convincing enough. The pains of be in a non hot rodding family! That picture you posted is what I used to try and get my stance correct. I can't reveal all my upcoming builds LOL, but that is on the short list. I'm build a Little Old Lady from Pasadena Super Stock Dodge for a show next month then probably the Project '40. This was my first real kit bash and my second model I've done in 30 years, and learned so much, hopefully my builds will continue to improve.

For got the quoted message.

Very much so.

Mark Thank you! I sure will. I'm starting on '64 Dodge, the Little Old Lady from Pasadena car, trying to make it accurate to what she could have drove, including the current trans. Then I have another P/S build. Ron, I used the Larry Morgan Super Clean Olds chassis for the back halve and kept the original style frame and dropped axle front suspension. Just modified the heck out of the crossmember to get it in the weeds.

Thank you!

bytownshaker, thank you for such a great compliment.

Got it wrapped up last night. All I've got left is polishing it before a local model show next month.

Thank you all for such kind words. geemoney, the vintage dash was one of the things it "had" to have! Zippi, I'm looking forward to seeing it! John B, I think its what makes or breaks a car!

I was gone from the hobby for a number of years. This is my first true "kit bash" build.

Welcome! I live in Owensboro.

I'm originally from Evansville Indiana but currently live in Owensboro KY. I am a tooling engineer in the plastics industry, ironic huh!
