I absolutely love that plymouth, the detail is incredible....first class work!

That finished up absolutely beautiful...I like it a lot...good job!!!

I'm speechless.....I simply don't have the words to convey my thoughts... I wanna be you when I grow up....

Safety and technology nonwithstanding, cars of the pre 1980 era had style, grace and personality. In 1957 at 10 years old, I could name most every make of car on the road. Try that today! Cars today are "cookie cutter" cars. They can't be told apart without a program. My first car was a '56 Mercury Montclair 2 dr ht, Black with red and white tuck and roll interior from the factory. It had "style". Sure, it was a sled and I paid no attention to milage. At .30 a gallon, who cared? For $10.00, I could fill my car, take my girl out to eat and to the drive in and have money left when I got home. My, how times have changed. Even the drive-in's are gone..sniff...sniff... It's no small wonder the 60's are such a fond era to remember...especially for us "old" guys... If people drove cars with only safety in mind, no one would drive a "T-bucket"... Just my two cents worth for what it's worth

Welcome back modeling brother. Like the rest, I've also been away..... since they cost $1.49. Oops...did I just admit that? One of the most daunting things for me was noticing the cost of everything...wow! But, the other side of that coin is, the availability of things like wired distributors and etched parts and cool wheels is unreal! Detail has just gone ballistic and the quality of model builds these days is intimidating to say the least. I'm still working on my first build ('38 Ford pick-up) after a couple months trying to re-remember stuff I thought I knew. Looking forward to seeing whatcha build...

Sweet Elky...love it.... But...FYI...those aren't Cragars, they are American Racing Torque Thrusters Also..hey, my folks are from Auckland, so I'm kinda partial to Kiwi's....

License plate could say " SMOOOTH".... Sweet build to say the least

I swear I ate there when I surfed Ensenada in the 60's......

First of all, let me say, I think that is one very well executed model...beautifully done...superb paint and interior..... But here is where my somewhat sick sense of humor takes over...when I see that, the first phrase that comes to mind is "trailer trash" with that color and interior. PLEASE...no offence..honest! But I see a fat chick with huge purple curlers in her hair and fuzzy slippers, red heart shaped sunglasses,smoking a camel, driving that... But then again, I tend to have an over active imagination...lol Honestly, I can only hope mine come out that good, good job, man.

That's just all kinds of cool...I especially love the "spare tire"...a unicycle...way cool!

I love it...kinda redefines the term "rat rod"...lol

That is quality work....man, you always put out the sweetest models...thanks for sharing

That's really sweet.....man, I just moved "building a gasser" higher up my priority list...

Thas a really cool Chebby, essay....

Man, that is absolutely incredible. I'd love to see it in person, I bet the pics don't do it any justice. Congrats on a superb build! I love the carb linkage, did that come as part of the motor kit?

Nice job!!! If I was your Dad, I'd sure be proud of you. I have daughters, they wreck cars, they don't build 'em.... ;)

That came out just beautiful...I expect to see James Bond behind the wheel...

Incredibly cool!

Evil, Wicked, mean and Nasty.....

I agree...definately not a rat...low budget for sure...but way cool..!

Absolutely perfect! I love it!

That's just way cool....without the salt, that would look like alot of cars I saw on the street back in the day...lol Nice build...I love it!!!

I just picked up 3 spools of wire from a guy that ties fishing flies, in 24, 26 and 28 gauge. In silver, gold and black respectively. Each spool has 40 yards on it and I paid like $2.00 apiece for them at a yard sale......just a thought.

Good stuff man, good imagination. I like it.

WOW!!! Absolutely beautiful! Incredible paint job!!!
