    '58 Vette

    Thanks, I used the backside of a scrap of leather and used an acrylic crayon to give it color. Also used in the interior.

    1956 Nomad

    Here is my '56 Nomad, mostly stock, but decided to add Weber carbs.
  10. My '57 gasser. Engine is blown 427, with quick change trans. Paint is Revin Red Lacquer and Blackberry enamel. Some weathering and rust added.
  11. I haven't posted here in a while, so I will be putting some of my builds on this forum. Here is my most recent. "32 3 window. Flathead from the '40 Ford coupe, fully wired and plumbed. Hinges for hood and door were fabricated from tin. Brake lines added and coil/over shocks added. Paint is Lime Ice & Deja Blue Lacquer. Enjoy. Rick
  12. Recently visited San Diego and stumbled upon this. http://s327.photobuc...o%20car%20show/
  13. THE COMET'S TAIL......it will whip your ASSteroid!!! or "Killer Komet" (better make your peace) Rick
  14. Here is my version. I think Dan drove this one for a couple of races in 1970, and then Swede Savage drove for the rest of the season. This one won a second place award at a recent model contest.
  15. Nice stang, How's it going Mitch? Long time no see. Rick
  16. I plan on going; since I live there. How early should I get there to find a close parking spot? I went last year, but I had to park so far away, I didn't even get to enter anything. Rick
  17. Off to a nice start. I have built five of the early Trans-Am cars. I did the 1970 version of the Mustang (the orange/yellow paint is available from MCW.) A good reference source is "historictransam.com" They have lots of photos. I'll be watching this one. Rick
  18. If it's clear, I have used Tamiya clear blue on the bottom half. Not too bad. Rick
  19. I will try to be there; being as how I live there. I just haven't decided whether or not to enter any of my builds. Rick
  20. Tom, you're doing a wonderful job on the "Bird". Nice attention to detail. Reminds me of a friend's Bird. "Shelby" Rick
  21. Finally finished my Vette gasser with blown 427. It was a blast to build. Enjoy!!
