Hey buddy those look good you should be lookin for someone to cast them!

vince

I thought if I get to find someone to cast the body is to have the valve covers added with the tins from the Milner rail!!!! Have it offered as a package type deal.....

That's good thinking and if the decals come out good should be a winner. I have a resin chuck naylor body and decals and a mint original kit that's shrink wrapped along with a mint coupe too! But I'd buy another! Lol

Got this all puttied up today, gonna sand it down soon and had to move to ask a second resin caster on this. Jimmy didn't seem to want to do it as he said it's already been done.... so I've asked a second caster   that I trust to see if he will do it..... so we'll see what happens on it!!!!

Well the body is done and will be off to a caster early next week or possibly Saturday!!!!!! It will be going to   George at GTKustomKrome, not sure if it will be through his own side of business or Missing Link but it'll be in George's hands sometime next week or the week after!!!!

Anymore updates on how your build is going?

Not at the moment, I don't have the funds to get the mold made up for it and will be on hold til I do...

Did you contact Holy Resin's forum and see if they can do it up?

No I didn't... Went with someone I knew.. I know Greg Wahn but didn't know if he'd want to do it or not...

Pulled this back out again. Been tinkering with the front axle while paint cures on my Tbird.. Looking at the axle mounts and trying to figure how they are shaped. I have an idea and may be close to what they really are..

Tbird is a Pikes Peak type build. It's based off of a illustration and is sitting on, Ray You'll like this, A 427 Cobra chassis... I'll try to remember to post some pics in a thread for it later.

Moved engine back in frame to fit body and look of real rail better. Wired the magneto, filled the back under body with putty to smooth it out better. Axle mounts are on.
