    I can't give Nick enough credit for his great work on the finish body work and paint, it took a while, but was well worth the wait, and he spent over twelve hours with me on thurs cleaning the cars and setting up. I also have to thank Matt Noble, and Todd for helping me get loaded up and home with the cars safely.

    Dan, as I told you at the show...that car blew me away, the design creativity as well as the execution is impecable. Congrats! I didn't have a chance to talk to Nick but, congrats to him on the paint!!
    Next year......building 4 !!

    It's time for the next generation to take over hot rodding.

    Some angel hair on the ground and you'd swear it was the early '60's. You have injected life back into the show circut. Step up to the plate Monogram, and make this one 1/25 scale.

    Dan told me that he had something in the making for this show. I think he "BLEW" everyone away with this latest creation. Hmmmmm, I wonder what he has up his sleeve for next year? KNUX!
     
  18. It should have been in the Suede Palace with Piero and Sloppy's Coupe! Reminds me of the show cars when I was a kid,going to the Great Western Exibit Hall!

  21. It should've competed for AMBR. BUT, based on what won, I doubt those judges would've "got" it. Congrats again to Tif and Dan on a beautiful car. I loved everything about it.

    I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I admire the work, and I sure as hell can't do anything like that, but to me, the cab is way too small for the front fenders and ,especially, the bed. And, what kind of hot rod color is that,exactly?

    Congrats on a job well done. Every time I look at the photos I see more details that I didn't spot before.

    As for the 38, Too much of a good thing isn't always a good thing. About 2 inches less in the chop and something done with the paint and it would be pretty sweet.

    My favourite car from the show, Looked absolutly right. Just wondered if much interior space was lost with the motor that high ???
