Walt.....I saw a picture of the gas pedal in a mag........and drew the foot on a piece of styrene and filed around the edges till I was happy with the shape of the foot......then I drilled a hole in the middle of the foot and filed the inside of the foot..... for a big enough opening for a backing plate......then I painted the foot alclad........ then I made a back side of the foot and added 3 pieces of wire to the back side of the foot......I painted it black and scraped the black off the wire......then glued it to the foot.......thank`s

Rob......I have to say.......I believe you nailed it......for looking real......ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!!!!!

Hello......I got the frame painted........front and rear suspension assembled ......I need to hook up the brake lines and master cylinder........did some work on the interior......I made a 60`s style gas pedal and a "Pancho" shift knob......wheels are assembled.......thank`s for looking.

My weakness ......I can`t seem to take my time......I get so into the build that I just keep going and going......I just want to get it done so I can start the next one........and my lack of knowledge when it comes to car engines.......I really don`t know that much about them......but,I can pretty much copy a picture of an engine if I have good photo`s.......I probably could read book`s and learn about engines but,again I guess it`s not that important to me.

Tyrone......looking very good.

Joe......looking good!!!!!!

Hello.....thank you for all the kind comment`s.......I would like to say that I can not take all the credit for this build.....this build is my version of a replica of a 1931 Chevy that is on the cover of one of my fathers publications "Rebel Rodz" Dec.2011........I hope that I do the 1:1 justice.......thank`s
