Lets put a face to that builder!

Here's me from almost two years ago checking out some REAL American made horsepower in a "pickup truck" of sorts. ;)

And nope, it is not photoshopped either.

Ahhh I see hardware built in my neighborhood. Space shuttles were built in Palmdale. I drive past the facility 2x a weekday. Every time they landed in the west, I could see them coming in from my house and hear the double sonic boom. Then they would fly the 747 with the shuttle piggyback at very low altitude past my house a couple of miles away on the way towards Florida.

My Biggest Build..LOL and my Friends

Hey Jim... That has to be one of my favorite Mongoose Funny Cars

@ Rommel and Mooneyes, feel free to keep a lookout for me as well. I will be at the Phoenix Desert Scale Classic. I did post a flyer over in the upcoming shows folder as well.

Mark I look forward to meeting you at the show.

Me and a couple of my heroes... 086f1af6.jpg

Ole Snake is looking good there (he still looks good enough to climb into a flopper even today, complete with sun tan). Mongoose is looking a little chubby, but hey at least he is still alive and kicking. I would LOVE to meet those guys myself. Nice photo!

Always remember rule #19 "Don't get mauled"!! Good advice right there. LOL

I thought it said, "Don't get mailed." Which, if you think about today's postal service, could be the same thing!

:lol: = That's more of that humor stuff, Jim.

Hello fellow modelers: I'm Jeff from Marana AZ. I just found this site and it is incredible,the talent here is truly amazing. I haven't built in years and this place has renewed my interest. I mostly do trucks...just out of the box. Here is a pic of me and what I do to support my habit...lolpost-9536-0-57225300-1332156705_thumb.jppost-9536-0-02671800-1332156725_thumb.jp

yes I built it back in 97 put a 97 302 Crate engine .30 over gt40 heads .498 lift roller cam and roller rockers backed a Large case C4 trans ( need to change the trans to an AOD cause I'm tacking 3000 @ 65 mph with 300 gears in the rear.)

That's nice! I have a marginal resin 63 Fairlane kit - trying to acquire an AMT original. I really like the 62, 63, and 64 Fairlanes. Thanks for the extra pics too.

Man, I don't know what ANY of that means, but it sounds like you said I have a bad ass car and it drives like a bad ass car, sounds like a bad ass car and I love my bad ass car! :)
