Great looking paint work and clean body trim. They should use a photo of your build for the box art.

Beautiful looking builds. Amazing how many different ways you can build a '32 Ford.

Rasing the bottom edge of the fenders and removing the running boards has in effect channeled the body. You had mentioned the '48 Ford as a comparison, as I'm sure you know what Ford had done on the '41 thru '48 models was to widen their body slightly and the bottom of the doors and body flared out slightly. What this did was conceal the running boards and they would only be seen when you opened the door. The headlight treatment and especially the grill really change the appearance of the front end for the better.

While my experience with resin bodies is limited, what I have noticed in the last couple of years is that the better and smoother castings seem to be made with some sort of white colored resin. The last one I did was a '67 Chevelle two door post and the bodies finish as purchased would rival most plastic kits of today.

He should have invested in a couple of cans of primer if he didn't want it to look like someone with a beer in the other hand was painting the car.

Great looking era color and finish. The body is nice and smooth, and the trim is all cleanly done.

Great looking box art style finish. To Ford's credit they advertised and promoted this Pinto option and sold a good number in the area I was living in at the time. Chevrolet on the other hand made little mention of the panel van version in the sales catalog and then couldn't figure out why they didn't sell.

I wish I could remember where I saw an article about a tire maker that was actually making a tire designed for what these people are doing with their Cambered vehicles. What it looked like the tire maker was doing was to make the sidewalls on the inside of the tire shorter than the outside of the tire. I have know ideas as to how this was accomplished production wise, but from the picture provided in the article they did have a larger contact patch on the tire with still having a raised outer edge of the tire. This also will pass in time.

Do you suppose he camps down by the river?

Like the old saying, "Buyer Beware." especially at an auction where you have little to no option for inspection. Go back and start rewatching around frame #220. They are talking about the GM style of covering the wiring and the general unkept look under the hood. They never mentioned it, but the first thing I noticed was the paint peeling on the right front fender where it attaches to the inner fender. Looks like they didn't even do any paint prep in that area. When you see things like that you better start looking since I have found that is an indication that someone was short cutting the very first thing you notice on a car, the paint. Usually if that has been done you can count that there will be many other far deeper problems with the car.

Any serious Ford racer has to have a "Tear Drop" hood scoop just like the Thunderbolts of old.

I'm getting a chuckle out of hearing about how the price of people's new cars and trucks keep going up and up. We keep forgetting a couple of things here. #1 maybe inflation and what a dollar will buy today compared to a time in the past. I'm of the belief that on average while our wages have, hopefully anyway, have kept pace with inflation. #2 The overall content and features of vehicles today are beyond what most people enjoyed on past vehicles. #3 We do have to look at the many "Safety" features that are now required by regulatory government agencies. How else can you expect to drive down the highway clapping your hands and stomping your feet without touching the steering wheel, how boring could that be.

OK, glad you found what you needed.

Very realistic looking chassis. Looks like the Tim Worm has had its way with this poor truck.

I like the gritty look of the paint finish. Looks like so many around here that you see sitting in a back corner of a business parking lot and only git used when it snows. I notice what looks like a new create engine in yours.

I like when a builder includes what their vision was when they post pictures of a build. The back story sort of does that for whoever is looking at the pictures.

The 2021 Charger kit as I have a duplicate of all the others already.

I'll watch it on TV. They are interesting to see, but way out of the way from here.

They should have ordered a non-refill prescription for something to help with the pain. That is the way my Dentist did it and I wasn't even knocked out.

Thank you for sharing. Man, there are a lot of sweet looking builds here.

The Gasser option is nice to have. Looks as if the only seat option is from the NASCAR version. Just leave off the side bolster.

Beautiful looking paint work and looks like when the Van Craze was in full swing. The "Shagan Wagon" interior is all well done. Ah Farrah Fawcett, who didn't have that picture tucked away somewhere.

Great looking paint color and finish. Like the interior trim. What did you use for the seat pattern inserts?

Great looking GTX. Like the interior and engine details. Got the stance and the Crager's always looked right on the MoPars.

Beautiful looking paint and vinyl roof. Like the back story and helps with the time frame for the Tunnel Ram Dual Quads. The Cyclone Spoiler never got them attention it deserved when new.
