I always like them! I have a 68 I want to do as a mild custom. I have it started in raw plastic. It's on my list (HaHa)

Albert, Were "thicker skinned" here. You don't need to walk on eggshells. Were kinda low key. Feel free to post what ever according to the proper catagory. Maybe Greg will start another area for motified die cast if there is enough interest. I have dabbled in it too. If it's a scale car and I like it, I have modified it some how! I can't leave anything alone. Here is on I have been working on tubbed 66 Nova I stretched the rear wheel wells by grinding off the trim lip Yea it's lowered!

Here you go Lyle, some photos I shot of lowering a 40 Ford same idea on the front. You can do this to the 32 tru 48 Fords infact I did the same to the rears on the 40 and 48 to lower. The 32 is different but, you can see the basic idea here. On the left one I opened up the slot I also notched the sides a little top one shows how I shaved the front so it will slide into the frame crossmember slot stock lowered you may have to hog out the center so it does not hit the motor oil pan depending how much you are lowering it. stock 40 lowered with stock hight axle Oh yea by the way cool 32 you got goin there Lyle!

MJ nice save on the red one (I wonder where you got it? HaHa)

nice I like that one MJ

OK, Try this one
