Here is something on my bench right now.  Played around a paint job I had been wanting to lay down on a wagon.  This one seemed to be the right boady for it.

Beauty!!!.....love the flame work!

You can never have too many flames! Like it!

Nice looking wagon and I also like the flames. Did you use a mask to create them or did you make your own ?

Thanks guys. 

David - I used a pre made mask. You can see it in the first coupl of pics.

Where did you get those wheels?   Chevy pickups of that era had six lug wheels.  I don't believe cars did though.

You're right. Cars were 5 lug (5 v 4.75 pattern) starting in 1949. Those look to be from the Galaxy kits.

Now that's cool! The flames look good! Those flame masks work well. I used one on a 49 Merc a few years ago. This will be killer when it's done!

Thanks everyone. 

Bill's right. They came from the 46 Chevy from Galaxie.

I think they look at home on this custom wagon.

Very cool Iceman! The flames are killer! Keep 'er LOW!

It wasn't unusual for racers (circle track and drag) to swap the rear end out for the heavier duty 1/2 ton truck rear, and in the case of circle track cars, the front hubs as well, to get more durable parts and better brakes. So it really isn't "incorrect" from a certain point of view.

I like it, makes the car look intimidating.

I agree . Looking good Iceman...

[mikemodeler]

Looks cool and definitely spot on! If I may ask, where did you source the flame mask? Those flames look great and I am wanting to try them on a build I have going.
