Been a while since i posted any updates....the TELSTAR is alive and well.....here are a couple of recent photos.....
Glad to know this project is still getting worked on, hoping to see the same almost constant updates on it like back in the day!
Its about time....do you think you can finish it before 2020????......good to see you back at it buddy.....stan
an hour of time, a 53 stude hood, a cutoff wheel, a welder, and a twisted mind can result in some progress if you are determined.....
My names Jeff, and I'm an addict. I'm a build thread junkie, and while my drug of choice is Hot Rods, Kustoms still interest me a lot too, so.... Imagine how strung out I am, waiting to see this come back up. Seriously though, I've been wondering what happened to this. Hope your back on it again, not sure I can handle any more withdrawal's
a VERY quick, and VERY rough photoshop job to show my idea for the wheel opening/coves i have planned for the car...
james...not necessarily,,just wanted some sort of windshield for reference,,,,i'd still like to do some sort of partial bubble, like the golden sahara II had, if i can figure out how the hell to build it..
I like the fender coves, it works with the peak down the sides of the fenders. I like where this is heading.
a little,,,,but nothing crazy...made a grille opening from two upper grille moldings from a 52 ford.....here is a photoshopped pic where i've added a rolled pan and a windshield,,,,,,and a drawing a friend of mine, lee goode did. he's captured the vibe of the car...i am in the process of converting my two car garage at the house to a shop. once that's done, i will really kick some ass on the car like i used to....tired of working outside and barely making progress....this car should have been finished long ago...........
