Oh HECK yeah!!! I'll be looking forward to seeing more on this one FO SHO Bob!! You're off to a good start with the trim mods on the side of the body and that wheel and tire combiniation. I love the work that you're doing on that engine and that inspiration picture makes ME want to go out and build this bad boy!! Bookmarked!!

I found your Youtube channel today. Good stuff. I'm really diggin' this build, the look is spot on to my liking. Based on the builds you have in the background we think a lot alike with regard to cars and hotrods. Subbed.

Yup, I like Hot Rods, Street Rod, Classic cars & trucks, Gasser, and pretty much anything with fat fenders. |

Had this car been built back in the day with those huge meats they would have cut the quarters out. I like the tucked under look MUCH better than that. This looks sinister!

Looking good Zippi ! Love that inspiration pic, looks like your doing a great job so far  I found your Utube channel recently too, really good vids keep it up ! Oh and if you really want to copy that picture, I've used cotton wool (with grey primer overspray) to simulate tyre smoke. it looks really effective ! |

Not sure how I missed this! I love where you're heading with it. Nice detail on the motor and the body mods definitely improve the look.

I'm starting to get a little worried about the decal set I custom ordered from STS Scale Model Decals. They were supposed to send me a proof of what I'll be getting once I pay the invoice but I've heard nothing after multiple emails. |

That stance/ ride height looks perfect Bob! Don't worry about that other shock as you'll find it by the end of this build and have one for the spares box. lol
