I've been rethinking my front wheel choice. The ones shown in the previous two pictures aren't spindle mounts. I do have one pair so that'll be one of todays projects. Gary

After I got the body on the near complete chassis yesterday, I felt like I'd just had a baby. Today I still feel that excitement when I look at it. I've got the body almost ready for paint, just needs final wet sanding. The wheelie bars are the last pieces that need to attach to the chassis. Please guys, keep in mind that the inspiration for this model is a funny Camaro I saw in October, 1967. Enjoy my newest baby! Gary

Bob, the 40 Ford Speedster started out as the venerable old AMT kit. It's been chopped, the windshield posts angled back, sectioned, channeled and converted to a speedster. The rears of the (4) fenders have also been stretched. It's ready to paint and I would have done it yesterday if it hadn't gotten humid.

how is this trakable? there's a '67 which was deemed "not" so i can't figure out how these decisions are made. yes, i've read the rules catagories and while i'm not experted in the nuances of specific nuts 'n' bolts of wheels, speed equipment, and paint, the "feel" of the models seems to be the deciding factor.
i'm confused . . . . . especially having been reprimanded for deviating from the line.
