Another project I finally got to finish... This thing was a real "junk yard dog" when I got it, but a a little paint works wonders......
Thanks for looking,
Rick

Super lookin. Just got a couple of them and you have inspired me.....
Anyone can restore a classic car, but it takes a real Hotrodder to cut one up and make it cool!

Thanks guys, Jim the manifold set up came from a Hot wheels sized diecast car, there called "Muscle Machines" and the motor parts are very close
to 1/32 scale. I've only found them at Wal-Mart.. Chet I was lucky the windshield and rear window came with the body, they were very yellowed and scratched
up but I used "Novus" #2 plastic polish and they cleaned up great.
Thanks, Rick |
