This is a Jimmy Flintstone body I bought seven or eight years ago. I combined it with an original issue Phantom Vicky and it sat unfinished for years. After finishing up a Jeep rod with parts borrowed from the Phantom Vicky reissue, I got the gumption to wrap this thing up.

The engine is a Lincoln 430 from the AMT 1925 T, with a parts box supercharger and EFI setup. The body is Tamiya Mica Red, with a Pearl White tonneau and seat. After ruining two V windshields I said screw it and just made a flat windshield. The only actual 1965 Lincoln parts on it are the taillight lenses. 

Far from perfect but it'll do.IMG_20231115_095915.thumb.jpg.e253943e8561eee477fc280ff756fcb0.jpgIMG_20231115_095927.thumb.jpg.5ae6e2cc0b22b6d1f88cadba13a55a90.jpgIMG_20231115_095935.thumb.jpg.6cb304a003303deba21cfb129672dec6.jpgIMG_20231115_094949.thumb.jpg.b8b0d37b4cb5f42f0199181d39239dad.jpg

Like the creative body style. Sort of a modern day take on the old Ford roadsters. Great looking paint color and finish and the interior compliments it well. Good looking wheels and tires.

Jeez Chuck, you've been busy. 

Considering the slab sided nature of the Lincoln, the straight windshield was probably the way to go anyway. The pipe bumper validates it.
