Thanks, but I have a lot of building friends all over the world who inspire me to do better every time.

 

I'll have some of whatever "Fibertech" is taking....WOW!

 

WOW!!! Got anymore of that gold 2 seater Bonniville????

 

This is just a fantastic chop!! I love the lines! I am guessing you have chopped a 1:1 merc! Jim

 

Sunday Southbury Swapmeet Score!

 

...just picked this 49 Olds up at a swapmeet...supposedly a replica of one that Bill France drove back in the day...it's a diecast, put out by Wix Filters.

 

Cool Olds!!

 

Sorry I don't have any close up shots

 

Very cool find.I wouldn't do a thing to it but put it on the shelf,

 

great work !

 

So it's Tuesday morning.... Big deal!
Keep'em coming!!!

 

Here is one that was a "group build" for the owner of the showrods.com website. I built the motor setup for this. The intake, scoops, and fuel injection was scratch built. This thing got shipped all around the country to get finished by about a half dozen different builders.

 

Haven't built this yet, but I have all three in the series. Pepsi, 7-UP, and Dr Pepper.

 

Damned impressive Fibertech!!!!!

 

Been building models for over 45 years and just started posting my builds a couple of years ago. Hey it keeps me off the streets and out of the bars.



That's all for now don't want to bore ya'll all at once.

Yeah, it looks HUGE!!!

 

Here it is Wednesday and the hits just keep coming....

I call this The L'il Bruiser, made from a PT Cruiser




A cl***ic, Leakie Boat Louie




Tom Daniel's Beer Wagon done as a puller

 

Tom Daniel's Pie Wagon as a puller






Tom Daniel's Bad Medicine customized into a delivery ala Uncertain T, hence the name

 

A few years back, Bill Frauhiger did some "what if" drawings of Tom Cl***ics. I decided to see what they would look like fleshed out.



I sectioned a dog house from a 1/24 scale pickup then scratch built the rest. The wheels are from a TD Snap Draggin kit.

 

Used the bucket from a Red Baron and scratched the rest.

 

Motor and ch***is from the Roarin' Rail, scratched the body.

 

Wow--those are really amazing!
