Gluhead Posted July 17, 2013 Author Posted July 17, 2013 Thanks, guys. Skirts are roughed out. After I figure out the tail, I'm going to go back to these and add a line of trim. For now, though, that back end has me scratching my head. It's coming to me but I can't see it yet. I might have to cheap out a little here and copy someone else.
POKAFONTES Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Super clean work. Love pics of the transformation. Keep it going.
Brett Barrow Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Great kustom work that would look just as good on a 1:1.
Ace-Garageguy Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Oh yes, it really pays off when a talented, skilled builder takes the time to think through modifications and makes everything flow AND fit. Very very nice. Did I say inspiring ?
Joker Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 (edited) I've built a '56 Ferd Vicky..never noticed how the windshield, has a chopped look to it. Idonno...maybe it's just me. BTW..got extra '56 parts...let me know Edited July 17, 2013 by Joker
Gluhead Posted July 18, 2013 Author Posted July 18, 2013 Don't know what to say, guys. Thanks. Can't wait to play around with the top (thanks again). It's gonna be the cherry on top. The plan for the butt is coming together now, too. I've got to give it a rest for a day or so, though...my body isn't cooperating and I can't sit here long enough to do anything and do it right. I'll come back to it this weekend. The fresh outlook will likely help keep things going as well as they are, too.
DumpyDan Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 WOW! That is so cool looking, long and lean. Keep the pictures coming.
Jeremy Jon Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 Looking good! Can't wait to see what crazy candy colors it will be painted!
mercustom Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 The scratch built custom grille and valance look awesome. The skirts flow with body well, looking forward to seing what's next.
crazyrichard Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 those changed parts look like aftermarker resin or ... parts ... awsome scratchbuilding quality your showing here
Gluhead Posted July 21, 2013 Author Posted July 21, 2013 Thanks a lot, guys. I appreciate it. Rough draft on the butt end. Too heavy feeling so far, but I had to start somewhere. Did it in blue foam insulation a few times first to try to get at least some idea. Loads more pics on my fotki.
Davewilly Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Yeah looks pretty cool is it still on the bench?
charlie8575 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Gee, how'd I miss this before? Very nice work, Chris. Good to see you back at it. Charlie Larkin
Lunajammer Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Very nice work, Chris. Good to see you back at it. Except he may not be. Hasn't logged on in three months. I hope our interest inspires Chris to come back to this.
Brett Barrow Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 I don't think he comes here anymore. He's over at TRaK now.
Draggon Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 I havent seen Chris on TRaK for awhile now. I seem to remember something, like a 48 Ford 1:1 taking up his time
