    yep You be right on,, I have NO IDEA if it take 3 strokes of the keys or a half a day,or if the person doing it ,is in a wheelchair, and loves having something to fulfill their day..
    or if they JUST HATE doing it,.. All I do know is I can't , And it is cheap entertainment on a 96 degree day in Arizona. If the person doesn't want to do it, carry on, and ignore it. That seems simple ta me.. So carry on.

    Easy fellas.... It's really not all that big a deal. And to be perfectly honest, if I didn't like doing this, I wouldn't. Plain and simple. :cool:

    Now, it actually looks pretty good with a little less stretch. Don't know if FunnyCar65 wants to shorten the wheelbase, though. I'm just glad he wants to do something about that green :eek:

    Ruben, thanks for all the entertainment, and your attitude, I wish I had half yer talent.

    But On another subject: NOW I love that little truck, the one with SHORT W/B.

    And Ruben Thanks for doing up my ride too. I was in doubt about finishing the sedan. But NOW I'm going to lose the billet wheels and get on it. Thanks for taking the time.

    Ruben's last photoshop, the one directly above, looks fantastic. Granted it would be a lot of work to bring it to there from it's current state, but it really nails the look.

    I did two versions, one with your wheels and one with some neat wire wheels.

    Hey Nick,
    Here is some of what you asked for.
    The angle of the car and the shadows made it hard to find the suitable donor pics, but I'll keep looking.

    Here is the '51 Kaiser tail light ('53 Chrysler would look good, too):

    [​IMG]

    Still working on the '55 Olds headlight, but in the meantime, here is a shot with a '55 Ford hooded light.

    [​IMG]

    For a side view, I started with Yaril Quintana's '51 (see yarilscustoms.com) which was already lowered with a beautiful chop. I changed the side moulding around and added the Roadmaster wheel covers.

    Rot n Custom Looking AWSOME! Thanks so much for the work! I already have some of the parts for this build so thisis the extra motivation i am in need of. I just got a set of the roadmaster wheel covers off ebay for $43 including the shipping! if it wouldnt be to much to ask could you move the kaiser taillights up to where the top of the quarter panel is so it all flows in one line? I know this photoshop stuff takes some work and really do appreciate everything that you all do to help people like me out!

    Ruben, I saw this on 65funnycars other thread, and thought it was outstanding. Can you do a re-work of Andereggtributes car for me?
    [​IMG]
    I am building a similar car with some changes, can you re-work this photo with the front axle pulled back until the front spindle is lined up with the center of the grill shell, add cycle fenders, change the color to Cadillac Bahama blue and not absolutely necessary, but if you can, change it to short bar '55/'56 dodge lancer hubcaps?
    I have also added a photo of my short bar lancers, just so you can see what they look like, my own really half-assed attempt at shortening the wheelbase to where I want it, and a sample pic of caddy bahama blue.

    PS: if it would help, I can re-shoot a photo of the hubcaps at a better angle tomorrow. If I put them 107" apart (the wb I am shooting for) and try to shoot them at roughly the same hieght that the photo of the car was shot at, would that make things easier?

    Done!! Perfect, absolutely perfect! Thats the picture that has been haunting me every day for the last year and a half! Its funny, you can see it clearly in your head, but theres always some doubt how its gonna translate until you see it. You have really done a hell of a job on this, and made my day! I'm gonna print about twenty of these, one on every wall in the shop, one in the bathroom, one in the hall, one above my computer, I'm gonna hang these everywhere! That should be a good motivator.

    well your a fair bit younger than me, so you will probably live long enough to see it.:eek::D I figure this deal is gonna take a while, and I have just barely started. I'm hoping to have it done when my daughter graduates high-school, shes 4.:eek::p

    Here's a request. How about redoing a scene from "2001: a space odessey"? In the scene where the apes are creeping around the monolith, change the monolith in a Deuce grill and shell. Make the apes holding wrenches.

    Just thought it would look cool.
