59 Impala

I built this Cadillac for one of my nephews who likes Cadillac's. It is Pearl White with a metallic Black top.

This is a car that was a rocket car back in the 80's that almost got thrown out. Instead I decided to try and restore it as a static model. It is a survivor for sure.

Sorry but that's Graceland not Northland Tom.

Great. Please let me know when they are done so I can finish the GTO. Thank you very much. Dan

Alan, can you make these decals for the 70 GTO Tin Indian? From what I understand they are the same as this 70 Firebird. You have the 68 but the decals are a little different like the red outline on the letters. I've built the GTO and need the decals to finish it. I have used the ones from you on the 68 GTO and Firebird and I am very pleased with the workmanship. Thank you. Dan

This 61 Chevy truck is the oldest I believe in my stash. I built this in 61 or 62. I can't remember which year. I almost ruined it by scraping all the paint off and the trim. I restored it and it is now on the shelf again.

Thanks guys, and I hear ya Mike about the droopy rear. I finally found a use for the dropped rear springs. I'm not a fan of low riders and the dropped rear was an easy fix with these parts. Dan

Thanks guys. I try to make the rusting as real as possible. Dan

Thanks for the kind words guys. This was another build that I had to come up with some parts to complete it. Again, it was a fun build for me. Dan

Thanks for all the kind words guys. I had a lot of fun building this from what I started with. The hood, trunk, engine and other parts had to be found to complete this car. Dan

Here are some pictures of a 49 Merc that I made a gasser from a parts car. It has the Lincoln engine from the 25 T with the blower and four carbs. The tow bar is from the 62 Bel Air kit. On the trunk I made a decal that says Hower Vocational High class of 66, the year that I graduated. The colors are close to our school colors.

Her are some pictures of a 49 Merc that had most of the parts missing so I found what was needed and rusted it up a bit. I also used the lowered rear suspension for the worn out spring look and it's sagging in the rear.

I've got the needed parts for the interior and will resume the build. She's almost finished. I need to make an upper radiator hose and weather the chassis and she'll be done.

I've got the needed parts for the interior and will resume the build. I'll post more pics when I get some work done. Soon. Dan

Thanks guys. This was put together from the parts box mostly. I installed the Lincoln engine from the 25 T with the blower and 4 carbs. I will post a picture of the engine as soon as I take one. Dan

Here are some pics of the 49 Merc that I just finished tonight. It is a tribute to my high school which was torn down many years ago.

Thanks David. I'm looking for interior parts from either the Fleetline or the hardtop. Mainly the side panels and the rear seat. The convertible parts that I have are different and for the convertible. If I have to I will use these parts but I'd rather use parts from the other two cars and not the convertible. I'm going to a show tomorrow in Lancaster Ohio and see if I can come up with what I need. Dan

Thanks guys. I'm waiting for a friend to get the interior from the hard top instead of using the convertible interior. I should have the parts this Friday night. Meanwhile, I'm working on the engine and chassis. I need to weather these. Dan

Here are some more pictures of what it looks like now. I wanted it to look like it is well used and weathered just a tad. Dan

But it's more fun fixing the broken ones. Dan

I've got most of the parts from the parts box and I'm waiting for different interior sides and rear seat. The ones I have are from the convertible witch are different than the hardtop or sedan. Also, the tie rod assembly was missing from the build and that piece is also in waiting from one of the guys in our club. Dan

Yes sir I did. I wanted a stock 2dr coupe and this needs a lot of work to get it there. I'm gathering parts that are needed to do this. Dan

I'm starting to work on this 51 coupe. I got it at our show last Saturday and it was started as a drag car. Well, I wanted a stock coupe and here are some pics of what has been done so far. I also made the chrome trim for the sides and in the last picture you can see how that turned out. There is still a lot of work that needs to be done. Stay tuned. Dan
