MichaelJ Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 Believe it or not, this thing IS lowered and still look's like a nose bleeder to me.LOL!!! The plug wire's are DET.MASTERS,and to me they are way out of scale! I need a surf board,some window decal's,and weathering to put on "DOC'S" bbq. posting. HA-HA!! (WHICH I LOVE) Also,I think this is the only flat head I've put in a car. BUT: I just had to put dual exhaust on it. Hope ya'll enjoy this one ...
Bartster Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 Great job on one of my favorite kits. l still haven't finished one, lol. This looks very realistic. lt's hard to get it low with the kit parts. l had to bash in some NASCAR parts.
GTMust Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 Great work. What did you use and how did you achieve such great looking woodwork? I can never get my wooden bodies to look like this. Tony
MichaelJ Posted June 29, 2012 Author Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) Great work. What did you use and how did you achieve such great looking woodwork? I can never get my wooden bodies to look like this. Tony Those are actually the decals that came with the kit. I was rather impress'ed myself when i put the clear coat on the car at how they turn'ed out. I've alway'self. had that problem myself.... Oh yeh, Micro set!! Michaelj...

rmvw guy Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 I love it the way it is! The skull on the oil filter is a nice touch. Nice photos!
Grumpa Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 Nice looking "Woody" Mike. Love the choice of wheels. It gives it a classy look!
bbowser Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 I have one the identical color (with stock wheels). Your's looks way better, very nice job.
Pat Minarick Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 Looks cool,this is a hard kit lower. I built one before and ground out the pocket for the springs, then ground the springs down to nothing and use the drop axle out of the Garbage Truck kit. I used the tires and rims out of the '29 Rat Rod kit.It ended up sittin' pretty low.

I've done similar with other kit's w/same suspention, and didn't have too much trouble. I was trying for original w/ slight mod's MichaelJ..
