Zarana-X Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Made some pretty good progress on the '93 Supra. This is the newest car I've ever built. + Painted the shocks, swaybars and control arms Eibach blue. Had to shave the hubs on all the wheels, then shave the steering knuckles AND the hubs on the front rotors to make the tires clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarana-X Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Anyone else still working on theirs? I've finished the engine, I think. Interior is almost done. The valve cover looked better in person. I tried it without masking the plug cover-majig. I think I need to get one of those magnifiying visor things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 Nice! I need to steal a Supra six and put it in something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne swayze Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 An oldie from 1985. The '29 Ford body literally came from the garbage pail in my shop. Thought an inline 6 would be different in a highboy back then. The paint job went south, but the car won Best Interior at the 1st Canadian Model Car Nationals.

Chuck Most Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 These are not the best pics, but this is a '52 Hudson Hornet built in a sort of '60's/'70's "Saturday Night Special" style. According to some old-time racers in my area, guys were still running Hudsons into the mid '80's, though by then a lot of them had been repowered. I'm sticking with the 308 for this version, though.

Jantrix Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Here's the Pacer drift car I'm doing for the Cannonball CBP. Using the AMT twin turbo 2JZ. I know there are better versions of the engine, but this is what I had on hand. Corvette front suspension and stock rear springs with a Ford 9 inch, traction and panhard bars. I've hit a snag on what color to paint it, which would dictate what color to paint the interior, so I'm sort of stuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 Little more work on the Hudson roundy-rounder. I still need to decide on alternator or generator, and what type of oil filter to use, but the basic chassis is done. That meant I could turn my attention to the body.

TarheelRick Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) This is a Willys coupe bodied short tracker. The engine is from a 53 Chevy kit and the chassis is 41 Chevy truck. Edited August 18, 2016 by TarheelRick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TarheelRick Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Another short tracker I built using the 41 Plymouth coupe kit, It represents the ones they used to show back in the 60's from Islip Speedway on ABC's "Wide-World of Sports" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Most Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Finished up two Ford six powered models today. You've already seen an early form of the Model A... And then there's the '48 Ford farm truck... I'll do full Under Glass postings for each when I feel like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Most Posted October 7, 2016 Author Share Posted October 7, 2016 Plugged a Deora Slant Six into the '80 Plymouth Volare- still some work to do, but it's mostly roughed in. And yes, I know the alternator is on the wrong side for this year/car, but it's a cobbled up junkyard beater, so I'm letting myself have a little wiggle room.
