Glad to see some progress. Lookin good as always!

started this one while back. im kind of surprised that i havent seen anyone building one of these since the reissue came out recently it will be built box stock...something that i almost never do. it has a two tone interior with flocking and some detailing. the color will be a mint green. just got the body in primer today and hope to have it painted soon. here is how it sits as of now.

Absolutely gorgeous!!!

Very cool! I always love seeing your builds

Nice!!!

it looks good as is. that slightly rusted bare metal look is great. if you are ever going to throw parts in the garbage, let me know first, i will take them off your hands. i personally think that this is a great kit and it has a lot of potential. nice suspension pieces and a very nicely done flattie. i will probably build another in the future.

The decals from the 37 are kit pieces. I will probably use a model car garage 6" chopped grille with a scratch built radiator. Thanks for all the great comments everyone

Thanks guys. The bags are made from rings

Got the four link done today

ok thanks. a little to far for right now. im really likin your cuda. all that black is bad@ss!

what show? where at?

Not sure how I'm going to do the rear yet. Couple of ideas but not sure if it would work like this 1:1. Here are a couple of pix. There will also be coil overs. All you experts out there please let me know if this would work. Thanks

i got the spring mounts made tonight. i thought i would try using brass for the first time since its stronger than plastic anyway. now she sits all on her own. here are some pics of the progress and final stance...also with the ford engine sitting between the rails.

This thing is lookin great. Those Wheels would look good with a set of chrome spiders or swap them out for a set of chrome reverse wheels. Either way I like it

Thanks guys. Mark, I don't have an ardun so thats out. I am saving the rocket I do have for the 50 olds. And the only nail head I have really isn't doin it for me...even though I wished I hade a better one because that's what I really want. So with that said I got the kits ford engine to fit nice. However I'm really not too into that idea either. I wanted to use a caddy aircleaner but it won't fit right. So I threw a parts pack caddy motor in the purple pond and when I get it together I can see how it will fit. I'm thinking the six strombergs will look nice sitting there

got a wild hair to start another chop...scale 6". ive been wanting to really slam a duece and do a suicide front and since i robbed the front axle for my 32 vicky, i needed to go a different route. not sure where the i beam came from but i think the bones are from the 48 ford kit...i split them, added rod ends and front mounts that i pinned to the axle. i still need to figure out the mounts for the spring. the rear has been z'ed, lowered, new bags made, and widened. rear wheels and tires are from parts box and fronts from the amt 34 ford. here is how she sits. notice the comparison sitting next to my other sedan that has been channeled but not chopped.

I'm from grand island and don't know of anyone in the area. I know a few guys from Omaha and st Edward but was wandering if there was anyone from the tri cities

Thanks bill. That means a lot. Congrats to you also...and your wife too. And thanks everyone for the kind words. It's positive feedback like this that keeps a guy building

I got to see this work of art today and there are no words that can describe how nice it is. It was really good to get to chat with you bill. Hope to see you soon. Keep up the good work

man oh man. amazing skills my friend. maybe when i get my mill you could show me a thing or two. will you be bringing any of this to the show this weekend?

this was the first model that i built. i think i was about 9 so that would make this model about 20 yrs old

here she is all finished up.

Nice'

That's too bad, but now maybe you could bring back that rusty 37 ford. Would really like to see that one done

Very nice work. Curious, where did you get the printing plate?
