I like what i see so far....

I am 0 for 2 with the CB CBP. I will hold off for a little bit, finish up a couple projects, and try to get something going. I will combine my club's muscle car theme into the build and, like Rob, kill two birds with only one stone.

Not sure if I'm supposed to wait for a formal acknowledgement, but here's what I'm starting with:

Plan is some bigger tires, rear spoiler, maybe, driving lights, and interior clutter and stuff you would find in the backseat during a road trip.

Wow, this is getting interesting, some really cool builds going on. I haven't started mine yet because of a current build I'm trying to get finished. Hopefully that will be soon, lol!

Jason, that Datson should be really cool with what you say you're going to do.

Pat, I can only see some trimming around the edges. Does the nascar wheelbase fit the truck that perfectly or am I just not seeing some of your work?

A little trimming is all so far ,it' s a lot easier than a Viper chassis in my Duster :rolleyes:

Hasegawa Lancia Stratos, using the '75 San Remo winner kit.

Great idea! Love those little cars!

burnt through the grill, oh well at least I have a back up. What's an easy way to make black wash?

Acrylic craft paint thinned with water. Were you using a moto-tool to do this?

The Torino gets a facelift fore and aft. At the rear I've lopped off a scale 6-inches and added a piece from my inherited parts box so I couldn't tell you what it's from.

In the front I'm using the custom grill and lower chin from the 64 Chevelle wagon. Just had to slightly trim the sides to fit.

The lower piece dropped in unchanged. Still need to re-nose the hood to fit the grill better. Giving it a fender treatment now so I'll have photos when it's ready to present.
