    I have been playing with cars and boats, and model trains, for too many years to brag about. The first serious automobile work I have done, started in '59 or so, one of those "you can build this car in 2 weekends" but they lied . ;) Some recall the adv'ts in Pop Sci and Pop Mech, I'm sure. There are some pix of it in mid 80's almost finished, and pix of it when returned to me after I gifted it to shirt tail relative, and eventually returned. Pics are in Blue Mellon

    That is about it.

    Thanks for reading

    Welcome old-fibergl***. Is that an old victress S4?. I had one in the ninties. Glad you are not letting the years slow you down. I am involved in a fibergl*** project myself as you can see. Keep in touch.

    hotrod1940--------- no sir, not a victress, but a US Fibergl*** (S2) copy with a different nose mold.
    I purchased it in [probably 1959] and first registered it in '61. Am in the process of re-building it now. A long sad story which does not need to be written. [I am still a naive' kid, ready to be screwed by unscrupulous 'ex-spurts']

    I looked over your links, and sure like that boat tail body. I hope it will be a success.
