I enjoyed watching both of these builds. They both look perfect.

I like all the body work on this. By combining all these different elements makes a very mean looking Mustang.

Really neat looking truck, I like the tires in the bed, great touch.

Each and every one is outstanding. The detailing on the Drag cars especially .

Is the circular thing you mentioned possibly a body mount ? Does it line up with anything on the bottom of the floor of the body ? Other than that I'm with you, what is that ? The dash board looks amazing.

I love the concept, that would really make it the "Ultimate Driving Machine" . Like the sleeper look of your build.

Great looking race car.

Great looking build. That style looks like it needs something a little more intimidating than a 312.

Beautiful build, like the color combo, all business.

I like that a lot. I'll have to get one of those bodies to use on the "62 Pontiacs I have stashed away.

Your chop looks great. Shouldn't take to much to get everything lined up. The body looks almost like a station wagon (shooting brake?) . To bad about the chassis, but maybe you have something else that you can rob the chassis out of .

Kind of like the old days when you built what you could with what you had or could scrounge. I see some others doing this and it looks interesting for sure. You mentioned the '40's time frame and that makes me think of the Race of Gentlemen that started there on the east coast. There has been a lot of coverage about it in the enthusiast magazines of late, and even the same organization just held an event at Pismo Beach Ca. and even the rain couldn't stop it. Just a thought if you are looking for any addition inspiration on your build. I'll enjoy watching your build.

A very nice looking rust bucket. You mentioned the '37 hood on the '36 body and radiator shell. How hard was it to match up ?

Might it not be easier to widen the '37 hood to meet the fire wall ? You might have to alter the hood side panels, but it just seems that all might be an easier way to get the two different bodies the meet.

Love the chassis work.

Just perfect looking.

Beautiful build, it looks like you're going to need snow tires for that

Perfect weathering and distress. Just looks so real, needs its own diorama setting. Sad to think how many wound up looking just like this when their track days were over.

Beautiful build. In my mind this is the most iconic Mercedes ever. I was about 10 when I first saw one and thought it was a space ship it was that radical for the time.

Great looking body. Combining an early '50's truck cab to a '57 Chevy body and making it look right is really something.

Always enjoy your VW builds. Haven't seen a convertible done in a long time. I was not aware of the Tamiya Panel line paint. I'll have to get some of that. The paint really polishes out nice. Interior looks dead on.

Looks like a great save on this Cobra. I noticed the new AMT Polyglass tires. If it is in the budget or if is even of interest AMT also has a set of Goodyear "Blue Streak" slicks. They would look very much like the tires used for the more track oriented build. They have the raised white Goodyear lettering with a blue circle and no tread pattern on the tires. They are listed as 9.00-15 size, with a lite scuff on the tread they would look just like track tires.

Great group of '32's. Built in many different styles, they all look great.

You have done a great job on the trim moldings. They look spot on. Look forward to your build. I have owned two 1:1 C10s a '74 and a '79 and loved them both.

The top looks perfect. If their Flares and Bumpers look as good I'll be a buyer.
