Looking forward to more of this and the rust. The engine looks really good so far. I haven't done a ratrod yet, but I think it will be a challenge to balance the rust and new parts for the engine.

Wish I could make it. I used to live in Utica, now in south-central PA. Please post pics afterwards.

I agree, you did an excellent job.

Personally I don't know if they're too big or just right. I'm sure your sleuth skills will find the answer. Looking forward to more.

John you are very welcome and it is an honor to be a small part of one of your epic builds. Note- the Total Performance file I sent Gary matches the original logo a LOT closer than what I put on your proof sheet. I just wanted you to have a size-correct logo for mockup. Just wish I could see it in person. You do awesome work. The body stand looks excellent.

Ok ? The paint looks great. The motor overall is killer. It's a model all by itself.

Really nice. Very clean.

You never disappoint us Dave.

John - another home run, touchdown, hole in one, winner. And I'm sure Tommy Ivo will appreciate the statuette repair. It was good to talk to you today. I'm jealous that you have all that warm dry weather for painting cars. Again I wish I could go to the DSC to see all the great builds.

Your usual excellent results Chris. I'm looking forward to more of this.

Turned out great.

Great update Mr. Hedlund. Looking forward to more.

It's a great idea for displaying your work. (I'm hoping my comment creates p150 !!!).

Excellent work Dave. Excellent. I'm sure the headers will turn out great, like all the rest.

Superb work John. It all looks so good. Question - do you put any kind of clear over the Alclad parts before adding the dirty wash ? Have you used any enamel based wash over Alclad like AK Interactive ?

John - what awesome work you do. Looking great. I am honored to be a small part of your project. Can't wait to see more.

Any more work on this build Stump ??

Are any of the resin casters offering the latest body style ??

Thanks Bill. I appreciate the honesty. I will continue to research pics on the web and in magazines. I have a Viper IRS that I was thinking of putting under a '72 GTO, but was also considering a Halibrand type rear.

That is such a classic FE car. Love it. Looking forward to more. There's also a great article about it in the Jan. '13 issue of Hot Rod.

They look great Chris. Go with it.

Looks great Tyrone. More please.

I haven't searched this entire Tips, Tricks, etc for this topic, but I would like to learn how to set up a different rearend on a car. For instance, set up an independent rear for a kit that came with a solid axle or vice versa. Or set up a Halibrand rear. Where should the mounting points be ? Which rears use coilovers ? Swaybars ? I would like info for converting 70s to the present cars to any of the mentioned rearends. I appreciate any help.

Good info. Thanks.

Great info Dave. Thanks for sharing. I've never seen one of those pumps up close.
