A giant Denver omlette canoe dropped it off, then.

This is my old warhorse... '94 F-250 XLT 2WD with the 351 and AOD. Then I've got my gas miser, the "T-Racer" '98 Mercury Tracer LS And my beater truck for this winter (probably)... '89 Ranger 2WD, 2.3 5-speed. And these are just the ones that run...

I tried something similar a few years back- cut down '41 Chev with a blown Chrysler. (And it's painted in Ford colors, too!) Can't wait to see how this one turns out.

The rear chassis looks killer!

I think I do have a picture of an earlier junkyard find- a trunk full of severed deer parts. I e-mailed it to a squeamish buddy after I snapped it. But yeah, you don't want to see that.

Great finish,and incredible detail. Another winner, John!

I have two of those minibikes, and I have no idea what kit they're from, either!

I think I need one of those!

Been a loooooooooong time since I've seen one of these!

Just this week, while rummaging around in the trunk of a long abandoned old Cadillac ('60 model, I think, most of the ID features were cut or rusted off), I found a messy wad of toilet paper and what appeared to be a human turd. Guess somebody was out picking parts and couldn't make it back to the office... but that wouldn't explain the toilet paper...

Here is my official "Never Gonna Finish This Thing Class of 2010"...

I had some tracks from a Rommell's Rod kit, and a resin '41 Plymouth inline six, an engine which was used in quite a few farm and industrial applications. An overactive imagination and close proximity of said parts led to this... Basically, I just wanted to build an old crawler that looked like it had been sitting for fifty years. The basic tractor is done, but I'm thinking of adding a hitch and a plow to it later on.

And let's not forget the original Pontiac Tempest!

So, this must be why 'Michigan Specials' are so stubby, huh?

I once bought a sealed '53 Ford F-100 which had the chrome sprue from an AMT '64 Impala kit instead of the correct sprue, and another time I bought a '53 Studebaker which was also sealed, but upon opening it I found an extra set of tires... with a set of Torque Thrust wheels (looked to be the ones from the AMT '69 Olds 4-4-2) inserted into them! I suppose stuff like this happens quite a bit, but I've never had anything like the body completely missing.

I think Drag City Resin Casters does a '35 Ford Truck grille, but you'd have to modify a Revell '37 cab (as has already been pointed out). Not impossible, but a little massaging should do wonders!

Note to self... stop at yard sales.

Yeah, I could dig that!

Whoa, whoa, whoa... what makes you think I can read? Have I ever once let on that I'm litrite?

Just the house, eh? I'm cool wit that. (Everybody But Harry read this.... I rent. )

Love it! Funny, I think this is the first one I've ever actually seen built up aside from the one on the box art!

Ha! The 'Real or Model' maven has been sacked!!!! (By the way, I thought it was a model, too. )

Some references for those who wish to cobble up some tracks...

Must be lots of old geezers in China!
