Dont know if this falls in the guide lines but i think it will be ok........If not let me know....started out as a resin. cut the doors out of it and used kit plastic doors,almost thought about tilting the front end but decided not to....... The straight axle is scratch built and the wheels turn left or right and made a custom drag link for it as well........the straight axle part is Sqaure alum.
Stock spindles were used.

While the guys were finishing her up (LOL)

it's a killer build! i don't claim to be a pro, but i don't think the hood is era correct, BUT who is to say someone didn't fab one back then? maybe them horns on the carbs are a little new too but i think it's a badass car though!

Not certain... the hood, definitely late sixties though...if not time era correct, definitely in the spirit. Charles

41chevy: Yeah I'm leaning towards the Torino as a Winfield /Starbird style idea car like the Ford Custom Caravan would have commissioned. Jan 23, 2024 13:53:42 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: fyi I did Pay for ad free here, I might have to renew that Jan 23, 2024 23:51:04 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: I hope you are all having a nice Memorial Day weekend! May 26, 2024 8:26:51 GMT -5

krassandbernie: I've posted some really cool stuff here on this board recently with little response......this place is on life support! Nov 4, 2024 20:17:16 GMT -5

Mr409: Posting has been a bit slow here lately. It's a shame, in my opinion this is the best modeling site around. I, myself, have one barely un-TRaKable project going on at the moment, once that's done I'll get back to work on some of my TRaKable projects... Nov 6, 2024 12:54:58 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: with facebook and instagram, it amazed me how many people stopped paying for storage and so many great memories are lost. i will not do that. Nov 17, 2024 13:31:07 GMT -5

Mr409: My Fotki is since 14 years. It indeed is a bummer how many pics are gone from old threads. I will also try to keep mine up there, but I also don't have any desire to go to FB or Instagram either.

RodBurNeR: facebook has it's ups, but i really like to share here when i am building. it matters to me what is said here more than anywhere else. Nov 17, 2024 22:07:19 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: just want to wish everyone a happy safe holiday season! it's among us Nov 22, 2024 22:57:44 GMT -5
