My question is.... Too weird and edgey for you guys???

The build-style is very similar to e.g. the Austin-Grassi "Fuel Cuda" '66 Barracuda flopper - I say go ahead with it!

not a whole lot different than the Bob Paeth creation...

in fact, depends on where you got your chassis wheels etc...but if it's the Tony Nancy stuff....it's exactly the same as this kit had. doesn't appear to be the same though....was it Willy Borsh or Bantam Blast?

oh....I didn't see that part lol
well, I don't know when they came out off the top of my head...but i would think it's ok long as it was 69 or older? I personally don't have a prob with it...other than it really reminds me of a pro bracket car.

Marty-

That thing TOTALLY RAWKS!!! Get that chop smoothed out and you've got a winner. Slixx has a whole bunch of kool drag decals with soem nice drag car style names on them that would work really well on this!

rickcaps55: Thanks Ed i have had this one for a long time got it as a kit that was stared but never got to it i have to say it was on the shelf for the last 15 years i guess it's time to get it going.!!! Jan 22, 2024 14:53:00 GMT -5

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: been really busy, work, parenting, skateboarding and trying to find a house to rent by august ! can't wait! Mar 26, 2024 17:07:25 GMT -5

41chevy: One weekend of flooding, next weekend of ice and 9 days of no power and this past weekend 18 inches of snow and two days of now power. Sticks!! Apr 6, 2024 12:33:53 GMT -5

Mr. Metallic: Poll for MoM is back open to try to break the tie. May 2, 2024 12:59:37 GMT -5

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

Mr. Metallic: Sorry to let everyone down but I'm going to have to give up my responsibility running MoM. Anyone willing to take it over please reach out to Bob and I. Jun 4, 2024 16:32:47 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: Craig it's all good, yes please let me know if anyone is interested. I will be a lot more involved after August! Jul 13, 2024 22:57:15 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: have a good weekend everyone! Oct 25, 2024 17:25:38 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: it has been a bit slow, but i come everyday. i am so close to being able to build and hope that things pick up again i miss this place! Nov 9, 2024 22:04:22 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: I paid up three more years on fotki, it's been 20yrs already! Nov 11, 2024 23:16:53 GMT -5

Mr. Metallic: it's been about that long for me too Bob Nov 15, 2024 7:55:05 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.

Nov 17, 2024 17:50:56 GMT -5

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
