Parts box build that I started years ago. The engine & chassis are the only things glued together, but the engine isn't glued in.
Not sure about the radiator. It looks too small. This build is way out of my comfort zone, which is why its taking so long.

I finally got this thing to sit on all four tires at the same time.🥴

I saw that on the "just in" list and thought about it. Nice!

Another mock up of a car I’m getting ready to start on soon that ive been wanting to do for a long time.A 75 Hang 10 Dodge Dart.The base kit is the AMT 76 Dart.Gonna use the chassis from the new Round 2 71 demon kit. Going to use the AMT 71 Duster engine and few bits and pieces from the same Duster kit. Going to source an automatic trans from my parts box. I’m using the kit wheels with the Firestone wide ovals from the 71 Demon kit.The Hang 10 decals are from Keith Marks.I ordered several sets of decals from him before he stopped making them.The white decals on the sheet are for a 73 Dart Sport I plan to build too.

My initial guess about my Edselized Fairlane caricature dragster was that a short block from my engine parts pile ought to be fine. But in seeing my mock-up today and how the headers must have more clearance over the fenders, I will need - forgive the pun - a tall block.
