I need to get my hands on one of these as well. Let the race begin!!! I have dibs on the next one.

That looks great. Nice weathering. I would not want to change the spark plugs on this thing. Talk about tough to get to. Keep up your great work

Thank you all for the kind words. I am getting closer to wrapping this up every day. I tried a lot of new things tonight and I think they came out pretty good. I used and finished my first distributor, a steel braided heater hose with K&N fittings. I alos looked up the firing order for the 62 Catalina and wired it up that way. I think I got it right. If not at least I tried. Anyway here are a few more pictures.

Here is a big update. Got a lot of work done or this week. Trying to get it finished before the Indy show next week.

Thanks John for the kind words.

Lets take a vote to see if we should add Master Builder to John's portfolio. My vote is yes!! This is another build that has just blown me away. I did not think that some of these thing could even be done. GREAT JOB JOHN!!!

This is why you should always read before you post.

Here is a update on my Catalina. Got the Gold and Clear Orange on the car. Going to let it gas out for a day or two then wet sand then clear and polish it till it shines like a diamond. Still need to add BMF and do some other stuff. Still working on the engine and the rest of the chrome stuff. I have not decided if I want to have it in the weeds or riding high. Any thoughts on that? Thanks for looking.

This is a simple lowrider build that I am doing for a year long build contest. It is a AMT kit with Pegasus wheels and Tamiya Gold with Clear Orange over it. I have also began to Chrome almost everything that I can. I am still caught up on what to do with the engine. Should I chrome it or build it up normal??? Please pass along any words of wisdom. It will have a white top to really set the body color off. Plus BMF everywhere!!!! Here is some of the Chrome work. Here is the underbody wheel choice and interior.

I will trade you for it. I had one but messed it up bad when I sprayed the body. The paint was to hot and melted the body beyond repair. Let me know if you want to trade Thanks Wheelman. Are you going to the next show here in Indy.

Thanks so much. I tried to post the pics from my smart phone but it did not quite work right. Thank you again that was very nice of you. It was my first attempt at weathering.

Here is a quick build. Color is Testora White Lighting with Tamiya Clear Blue. Pegasus wheels and a parts box exhaust tip. Still need to added the mirrors and plates http://emob295.photobucket.com/albums/mm143/rookie2020/P1050269.jpg http://emob295.photobucket.com/albums/mm143/rookie2020/P1050267.jpg http://emob295.photobucket.com/albums/mm143/rookie2020/P1050263.jpg http://emob295.photobucket.com/albums/mm143/rookie2020/P1050264.jpg Thanks for looking.

Hey that was a third place winner at a Indy IMPS show last year. HAHAHA I would now I took the mans trophy on accident. Wheelman was very understanding about the whole thing. Great Guy. Man that was very embarrassing to say the least. PS the trophy was returned to the rightful person at the next show.

Here is another build I am working on.

Here is quick fun project that I am working on. Tamiya Silver, Clear Red, and Gloss Black. Wheel are from the Chevy 3500 Dually. They fit perfectly. Still trying to decide on which wheels to use. Here re the other wheels. Hella's

Here is another update on this project. I can not believe how long and time consuming it is to do tuck in roll. It took almost as long to do it as it did the chop. http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=0Eat3LdwxYsWHl&emid=shareprintviewer&linkid=link5&cid=EM_sharview
