Thanks Clay, great way to do it... I like to change my 32 chassis to something less modern and this could be a better way to set the Z and get the ride height down.

With the body on you would never guess how much work was in the frame, nice work. It looks good with the 40 body on it sitting in that powerful stance, but as always your chassis work is what I really enjoy looking at.

Thanks, Jeff. I always have fun building my stuff....more fun coming.

Pre bed time peanut butter induced nocturnal inspiration was dashed in the light of day when I discovered that the 40 Deluxe grill wasn't up to it. A trip thru the salvage crap turned up a Standard grill.
I had to operate to make that fit.

I might be wrapping this up sooner than expected. I have a base coat on the tins.
I had envisioned blood/scallops type grafix and "Roadkil" lettered on the doors in red with drips streamimg down and pooling at the bottom, but I'm thinking now, that that might be a tad overkill.

I don't usually mind tacky, but I guess I'm just getting old.

Hey Geezer;
Really nice scratchin' on the frame! It's lookin' great. I've been lurking in the backround for a long time. I'm getting ready to start building again.......been quite awhile. I've been devoting most of my time to my 1:1 ride. A 85 Chevy S-10 with an LT-1 Vette 350. If you or somebody can tell me how to submit pics, I'll post some of my S-10. Can you give me contact info for the guy over in Homasassa? I'd like to check out what hes got. I'll be posting some pics when I get started.

jbwelda: Thanks again Tom, funny thing is, this current IP also resolves to an Amazon address but seems to work just fine. jb May 29, 2023 15:06:36 GMT -5

HotRodTom: qu.2

It's an interweb thing..... May 29, 2023 19:46:30 GMT -5

jbwelda: wow like three whole people logged on yesterday...I feel like a rat on a sinking ship! Oct 8, 2023 11:34:03 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: nice Bonneville up top! hey all, I still am around but struggling to get my hobby hands back, mainly no way to paint right now Jan 16, 2024 22:48:31 GMT -5

jbwelda: NNL West is today, anyone going? Its going to be crazy around there what with the footsball game next door. First time in a while I am avoiding it but hope someone posts some photos. Jan 20, 2024 12:51:40 GMT -5

jbwelda: heard it was announced that next year will be the last NNL West. Another one bites the dust. Jan 22, 2024 13:59:15 GMT -5

jbwelda: yo Mar 19, 2024 13:07:33 GMT -5

jbwelda: looks like visits here are dwindling rapidly...wonder why that would be? May 4, 2024 22:19:40 GMT -5

Spike: What's happening out there? I seems that fewer and fewer members of this forum are building model cars, or are they still being built but not being shared? Jul 8, 2024 13:46:43 GMT -5

jbwelda: well speaking for myself there are a number of reasons I haven't been participating lately, the most likely one is that I generally do not build much during the summer months. Too many other things to occupy my time. Jul 10, 2024 11:36:30 GMT -5

jbwelda: Second, this past year I have been spending time in Jamaica a lot, I have a winter place there I have shared for years now and try to spend at least a few months there a year. I have few or no model supplies there and other things to smoke, uh, do there. Jul 10, 2024 11:37:48 GMT -5

jbwelda: Third, there really has been very little in the way of models newly released that do much for me. All this reissue sixties junk the USA companies push out I have very little interest in. Euro car kits have been pretty sparse the last couple years. Jul 10, 2024 11:39:17 GMT -5

jbwelda: And mail order is getting more expensive. So mostly I have been sitting on the sidelines, but come autumn, I will probably get back into it. I have a few projects I need to finish up. Just a matter of motivation. Jul 10, 2024 11:41:43 GMT -5

jbwelda: I realize many more people here are much more involved than I have been but I too have noticed the huge drop off in participation by those who seem mostly to just look and not build, or at least not post builds here. Jul 10, 2024 11:42:46 GMT -5

Spike: I don't mean to criticize, I just want to see more models. Jul 12, 2024 15:18:22 GMT -5

jbwelda: site seems to have some problems, when i log in from the USA, i get a msg about the site not being available; when i change my vpn to Canada, it comes right up...for instance i am right now "in" Canada. Might want to look into that and yeah, I do know what Jul 15, 2024 19:06:25 GMT -5

jbwelda: I am doing. Might be my computer or the continuing problem with my isp evidently being somehow banned somehow, see messages above. Jul 15, 2024 19:06:59 GMT -5
