    VERY NICE! Is that hinged body a NorthWest trend? Reminds me of the old Orange Crate.

    I have some really good art work of this car, except it has a hemi in it, but you already know that. Maybe if i ever pull my head outa my **** I will get a few shirts made up.
     
  7. Awesome, Dude! It is just like a model. So clean.

    I can almost imagine t******* the polystyrene parts out of a tree and smelling the Testor's glue. ;-)
     
  8. So rad. Now what's the deal with the roadster...do tell.

    Wowee. I haven't seen a tilt-up body on a rod in decades. Last one I remember was a dark blue rear-engine '32 Ford in the early '70s. (rear lifted) Your Chevy is Nice. Radical. Eye-catching. Different. You're gonna turn some heads. I'd bet we'll be seein' it in a mag. Congrats.

    Badfella,
    Thanks a lot. i miss S.D as well, but when I got here there was a rusty car in every field. Maybe someday I will run out of fields and come back to the beach.

    It DOES look like a model. Without the background, I'd swear it was. Revell should make a kit of it! :)

    Man,
    That would be a dream come true. i have always thought a model kit or hotwheel would be the ultimate compliment to a builder.
