Thanks for the great feedback - I think this is the first four seater I have ever done!

Lee - Hemi is from an old Dodge Daytons kit (MPC?) - probably the worst body I have come across but the engine detail was good. I think the dash is from a mid 40's Ford... it was in the ol' parts box.

Ron - Body, frame & grill were donated as an old build. I think it was a kit called the Phantom Vicki but I could be wrong. Here's the front end...

Jim - My signature pic is a thing called the Ice Manx, one of my favoutire builds thanks.

Randy - Wheels & tyres are from a local online mob called the Parts Box. I'm sure they would be happy to help you out

Thanks again for the encouragement

That's a cool looking hot rod! Definitely gives me some ideas for all of those parts I have left over from parting those kits out.

Ever finished a build but it bugged you that there was something not quite right about it. The lines on the Vicki just didn't flow

I pulled the motor out & lowered it to match the body line & added a ribbed apron to the bottom of the grill to clean it up.

If I find some chrome bullet lights I might add them later but I like it as it is

Happy now, it can go into the cabinet & rest in peace.

Have a happy Christmas & inventive new year

Brian
