Hey, welcome to the '54 Chevy Wagon Club! Mine's taken a back seat to other projects too, but one day...
Ryan, what Dean Batchelor book would you recommend as a starting point to someone that's not familiar with his work? Amazon has the Dry Lakes...
Is this challenge open to any choice of lowrider car/truck, or just the two choices in from the first post? I know that was one of the rules from...
Damn dude! I consider myself an experienced bead roller, and that rose is some of the best work I've ever seen! What dies are you using for the...
+1 for Bosch. I love mine.
Cool deal with the transfer paper. I gotta get some of that. Will the steel dies cut it when you roll over it?
How come you need the plain white base under the crystal white base? Would the crystal white base not provide enough coverage by itself?...
Kev, on the eye, did you just crank the top die down and then release it to make the bump, or did you actually spin the panel 360 degrees with the...
WOW! If we buy some t-shirts, will you bring the Punk to the Roundup?
That's exactly what someone (Rikster) suggested to me, and I think it's a great idea. Since the '63/'64 have the exposed dual headlights, match...
These look pretty good. I've been looking for tail light ideas for my '64 too, so I'm interested to see what others come up with.
No shit! Too cool.
ooohhh, good one! Nice way to measure right down the middle. Clever.
www.salinasboys.com Everything they do is worth studying. It's all good.
This one of Cole's is cool. [IMG]
Can you or Kirk give some specifics on what the paints were that you used for each process (base, lace, candy, clear)? Is the flake only in the...
Cool post. Thanks for documenting it! What does the cross-section of the strip look like when you're done profiling it? D-shaped, or half...
Wow!! That is one of the coolest interiors I've ever seen! How cool would it be to cruise that Caddy at night with all the interior lights on so...
Here's a cool one. I think these pics were taken at Paso 2004.
These aren't the best pictures, since I pirated them off Jimmy Vaughan's site, but they show some of Vernon McKean's work in a couple different...
Hey! I was reading that last night too! Very cool. Congrats, and thanks for the build pics.
Great work! Thanks for posting. Really enjoyed this one.
I think this might be what he's talking about: http://www.streetrodderweb.com/tech/0711sr_upholstering_a_hot_rod/photo_23.html If you page...
Kev, that Crow is way cool! Nice work. Here's one of my latest. Picture's not the best, but the piece itself came out nice. This is like a...
Here's a few I had stored. I think the fastback is probably just red oxide primer, but the lighting wherever that shot was taken makes the...
Got any more pics of this one?
Are those still called Fulton visors then? If not, what is the name or brand of the ones that fit the non-split windshields? Also, are they...
Welcome from a fellow Texan!
Yep, I can do that. Next set, I'll take photos along the way and do a write up. If you want the diamond pattern to run all the way to the edge...
Here's one of my latest sets of door panels and dash for a VW Bug that a guy is doing gasser style. DIAMOND TUCK'd aluminum! These look so...
