i started this last year sometime. after blowing the dust off of it a few weeks ago, it got hit with some squadron, sanded and painted. all it needs now is a rear bumper, mirrors, headlights and a polish on the roof section. then its off to my girlfriends work to collect dust on her desk.

some pictures...

Pretty cool project.

the use of the ford truck grill, and hood-side exit open headers really does clean up the front end of that otherwise non-hi-boy-able body. The flat blue/purple looks great (though I personally would have gone with something darker for more of a rat rod look).

Throw some decal solvent/setting solution on that #7 and call it good.

thanks for the comments guys

rsx: the grill is actually from a 41 chevy pickup kit

Ahh, that's it. I was thinking a 38 ford.

a 38' ford grill probably would have looked awesome as well, theyve always reminded me of a cocoon.

well added some backfire to it, and im calling it done.
i think it looks alright, was going to detail it more but i know how i get and didnt want to end up tearing the whole car apart and rebuilding because of some new vision.

Looks a lot like the mini modifieds you'd see at the local dirt oval...but cool.

the flame thing is pretty funny.
