Cranky you can count me in on this one since I missed out on the last one. I have an old rat rod that really needs to be finished, and what better way to get it done than a little bit of pressure. Its actually the rat that is in my profile picture. I guess now that I made this commitment, I suppose I had better go out to my man box and try to find it LOL.

Count me in! Gee.... Which unfinished project/projects do I want to finish... ;^)

Ranma, I look forward to seeing your Paystar 5000 build. It may just get me inspired enough to rebuild the two that I have... ;^)

This looks like fun. I might try this. It completely depends on work towards the end of the week. I have a '67 Comet Cyclone that I barely started. If I can play, this will be the project.

Ok guys here is the rat rod in desperate need of finishing. I dont have too much to do to it, but it will still take me 3 days to do it (im just pokey when it comes to creative blocks).I have the hemi mocked up in there, but I really think I am going to change it to a small block chevy. I also need to find some seats that fit the look.

Delighted to hear it, and WELCOME. Just a few more days. I gotta clean up the bench, finish the SNIPER by Friday, and get ready to start in on the Mini Cooper.

I gave my 13 yrold niece a cooper kit for her first kit.she likes it. Not to much longer I will post It finished. I gave all 5 of my nieces and nephews a first kit to build. I'm trying to keep the hobby going in my neck of the woods.

I try to do the same thing with my nieces and nephews and little cousins, but I cant seem to get them away from the video games and satelite tv long enough to get them started. My daughter (8 years old) has not built one yet, but there is not a minute that goes by that she is not standing over my shoulder watching me build. My plans are to take her to hobby town USA on her Birthday and let her pick out her own kit and build it that day.

I agree about the games . The boys could care less about cars . My oldest niece loves then. She wants a 350z when she can drive.
