  2. That looks really nice , I found these , so you're close .
  3. Looks like he was copying the cross ram with 2 2 barrels just to make it interesting . It is for sale on e-bay , $29,000.
  4. another pinterest find .
  5. This option is new . Found this on pinterest in a 60 Plymouth wagon . .

  8. We have that problem down here , geese come in and stay , but the law here says , if they don't migrate , they're not protected and open game .
  9. Was this ever finished ? I can't find it in Under Glass .
  10. Looks like you've got the rusty , crusty down pretty good .
  11. I really like the conversion , almost Nomadish , with the tail gate trim . What kit did the roof come from ?
  12. The carbs need to be facing forward , to get the linkage on the driver's side , but the stacks can go either way . Which way do you like ?
  13. Hey Greg , any updates on this ? I'm fighting the same battles with the sedan I'm putting together .
  14. Had a wonderful day with all my family , kids and grands , nothing like having everyone here , happy and safe .
  15. Yep , that's the bunch , they must have been hurting to fill space . He just turned it into a magazine article .
  16. Just received the Mar 2018 issue of Car Craft and there's an article on building nostalgia funny cars . Steve Magnante is the guy who built the Wilshire Shaker 63 Nova back in '01 . He's all about finishing an idea , no extra detail , paint or extras , but he has a lot of cars to show . Interesting from a how he does it stand point .
  17. It's really dependent on how much you want to put into it and how much space you have to work with . My "work" bench (in the upstairs of the garage ) is 30" x 12' , that being said I have about 30" x 20" of workable space, it has a tempered glass panel that size to work on , durable and easy to clean . The rest is cluttered up with a TV , stacks of projects in containers , parts bins , supplies ( scrap styrene , a rack with new Evergreen packs , aluminum & brass tubing , tools and various boxes of cars ) and a display case hung from the wall . The bench itself is cantilevered out from the wall with diagonal supports so I can move a rolling chair the full length . It has electrical outlets mounted below the top surface , to the face of the bench for easy access . I also have a Harbor Freight tool box that sits next to my chair to hold all of my tools , supplies and detail parts I'm not using a any given time . I have 2 4' double lamp fluorescent fixtures centered over the actual work area and a desk mount lighted magnifying lens on one side . I'm a firm believer that we're like fish and grow to our environment , the more room you have the more junk you accumulate . You just have to decide how far you want to go .
  18. All you need is a 6" steel rule and a single edge razor blade . Oh , and a good set of optic enhancers .
  19. wow , that is nice .
  20. Our credit union won't accept rolled coin , they have a change counter in the lobby for client use . Just dump in your change and it gives you a receipt to take to the clerk .
  21. Best looking car ever built , OK , I'm biased , I have 2 1:1 55s , looks great .
