1 bad55 stan Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 Man can't wait to see this one finished! I hear yeah mate!Give me a few months or more!gotta get-it good...
1 bad55 stan Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) Having grown up around these, in stock form and wild form, I will be watching this build very closely. With all that bar work and tubbed rear end, I would look brilliant with a 14/71 hanging out of that hood. Great start on it too. Thanks Dale,i love these old Holdens,i like your thinkin mate.We got to stick together on this one.NZ v AUS.!!!v USA!haha... Edited December 19, 2014 by 1 bad55 stan
1 bad55 stan Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 Looks real good Stan! Great subject/project. Nice work on that cage! Thank you Gene,check back in latter bro!!!
crowe-t Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 Beautiful work Stan! How about a duel carb setup sticking slightly out of the hood. Not to obvious like a blower but still says Pro Street. Mike.

Good idea Mike,i was going to try a twin turbo set up but i dont think there is enough room,so i think a blower or tunnel-ram might be the way i will go.
dragzz Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 nice progress stan u did some real nice cage work what did u use for that if u dont me asking
1 bad55 stan Posted December 22, 2014 Author Posted December 22, 2014 nice progress stan u did some real nice cage work what did u use for that if u dont me asking Hi Thomas,i used strip styrene evergreen number 222.its real easy to bend,I start with the main hoop(behind the seats) and go from there.
GoatGuy Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 I can smell the welding progress from here Stan. Ha. I agree with the blower idea. Have a Merry Christmas.
10thumbs Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Some intense work going on here. Those are some serious pulleys on the turbo engine. Michael
1 bad55 stan Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 Thanks for your comments guys..I decided on using a blower for this,i have some Turbos but i'll use them on a latter build.Any way i have the frame and cage painted in a gunmetal,im going with weld wheels and maybe red walls on the front. Comments are welcome...

Stray Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 I'm liking this build. I have checked out the parts box kits but will wait til I have more experience handling resin.

1 bad55 stan Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 WOW! Looks good! You have my attention! Thank you Justin...
funhouse1 Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 This looks very nice, really dig that body style...I build the old 50's-60's-70's junk so I am totally in awe you guys that build the modern stuff...MUCH more difficult, or so it appears to me.
DeeCee Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 Great looking cage work Stan, and I must say PERFECT STANCE too mate.
W-409 Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 It's great to see that you're back on the bench again, Stan! This is an interesting project and it's always nice to see something different being built. I've watched these resin kits on Parts Box's webpage, but never ordered them. Maybe some day I will. Keep this coming.

GMH built these from around 1971-74,so it aint that modern,thanks for your comment though.i love 50 60 and 70s cars...
