I can already think of a 32 Ford the "Warning:No Airbags We Die Like Real Men" decal will go on...

With the recent VW builds I've seen, I found these which look pretty cool. Never dealt with them before but it does include Empi decals as well as a Grateful Dead decal... https://www.junkees.net/product/vintage-vw-decal-set-1-24

This will be very cool!!!

Sequential to receiving my paycheck and then paying my bills and then giving my wife money towards our mortgage I then realized that my buying tools to start building will not be happening these next two weeks.

Looks like... https://opposingcylinders.com/13339-2/

Going to use those "flame arresters" on this?

Found this online...

I wanted to get this when it first came out. I love the body style. You definitely did it justice, it looks great.

Virtuosity is definitely an apt description of his art, his work is unbelievable.

Heads that I really like are the Thickstun heads cast by Norm.

I've seen this, though this photo was sent to me by my son when he wasn't... it's his daily driver and project. He's done the work himself with some help from his friends..

Journalism has been in question since the days of Hearst, just saying.

One other aspect that came to me is this is on pavement not sand, so it might influence the choice of tires...

Very nice.

It seems absurd that as much as I work and with my wife's business we're having to re-evaluate our financial and living situation.

I might even build a car for the spectator event ? Vintage Drive-in and Park: ticketing at gate!!! Drive in and park for traditional hot rods, customs, bikes…pre 1964 only. https://www.theraceofgentlemen.com/spectator-info-ca

That is beautiful, either build fits within the California Drags rules that I can find online. https://www.theraceofgentlemen.com/race-entry-ca

This is NOT Wildwood, it's the California Drags, which as you pointed out, does NOT state no fenders. California Drags is a reenactment of street racing of the 40s and 50s.

I based this build off of this event... and included the rules from their website. Doing research I found that fenders are not allowed on hot rods for their Wildwood event. The main reason for choosing the California Drags was the later rules for OHV engines and thought the less conservative rules might open up the entries somewhat. I'm sure someone besides myself knows more about this than myself though.

Beautifully cast. I need to learn how to cast small parts for my own use...

During work, now that I decided to return to this hobby, I'm going through build combinations in my head...

Vacation each year is spent going to Tucson to see her mother and sister.

RMoM has a nice Winters Quickchange with aluminum tubing.

His stuff is great! I'm using one hood with my 32 Sedan and the other will be used with a Drag City 5 Window chopped...
