  6. It was one of the model king AWB kits, i forget which one I used. the motor came with the bel air.
  7. the frame will be even with bottom of bumper when glued in place. The roll cage is two parts on this one and with it not being glued to firewall it sits a little lower than bumper. the fenders do have a slight up hill rake, I was hoping it was just me seeing that but guess not. It's on the list of things to fix. thanks guys
  8. Hears a few more pics of it. This build will stall for a little bit. I need to build some funds up for some more goodies for it but i will try to do a little hear and there, I'll try not to leave you guys waiting to long. What I've done so far. widen rear wheel wells, lengthened the front end and hood made custom hood still needs cut for blower. made custom wing for rear . I made templates from the ford p/s kit with a few changes to make it fit. I cut out most of the trunk lid and raised the rear window allowing this one to sit low. Tony I put the grill in place for you. lol I also double check it's a fairlane

  20. you can't really hold it against ebay. there not the ones not sending your item. I've only had 2 times out of 200+ where i didn't get my item, both times i got my money back yea it sucks but if you found it once for a good deal chances are you'll find another one for a good deal. I know I've found both kits I didn't get for better prices later on down the road. I write down any sellers or buyers who give me trouble and add them to my banned user list I also wont bid on items form these people As far as high shipping rates that just means I won't bid as much on one. I've scored some good deals on items with high shipping rates. scored a foxxy box van sealed inside for 18.99. .99 for item 18.00 to ship high shipping but over all fair price, scored an A team van cheap over high shipping think i got it for under 25.00 shipping was around 15.00 still a good deal, also scored a bud car hauler set with funny car for under 50.00 over high shipping forget what it was but it was high If they didn't want it to sell that cheap than they should have started it higher or put a reserve on the item. I've sold some hard to find kits for low prices but always list them for a price i can deal with because sometimes no mater how hard it is to find or how rare it is only one person will be looking for it and it takes 2 to drive the price up. like when i sold some old screw bottom 68 gtos sold 2 for over 40.00 and they where in bad shape incomplete with body damage then few weeks later found another one that had every thing but the motor even had the clear hood and it only sold for 12.00 only one guy bid on it. sucked but i still made money on it. I don't care what a kit is worth because if I'm not going to build it it has no value to me. I normally don't buy kits to resell but sometimes I have to buy a complete collection to get a few good ones and then i will sell off the rest i think ebay works good if you do your homework on what ever you are buying or selling, fees are getting a little high for small sellers like me. but where else do you go i know there's other places but ebay just has a larger customer base vs other places
  21. all ready getting started on the bentley? I would have to say the glass things are the tubes for the radio. lol hope you plan on posting pics of this build. knob looks like shifter, unless that whats the black knob is on the right at about 5 o' clock on the steering wheel.
