TuscoTodd's Show-Me Showdown - where did the time go?!?

by **TuscoTodd** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 8:31 pm

Progress is in the wind!
Finally made a decision on the body...
Going to be a Snap-Tite special for this one! :handgestures-thumbup:

That along with the following goodies is making for a good start!
:D

Oh goodie, another Chevy for the Fords to beat on... :lol:

Yes indeed. Very nice choice. Glad to see you in this one.

"Hopefully" if all goes well, I will have an update to share later on today... :D

Wow.... Where did the time go?!? :o

While I did get the body in clear (currently drying), it unfortunately is highly doubtful that the Camaro is going to make this year's run... Guess I can be early for next year's run though right? :think: :lol:

Now - back to the high performance wrenching!
:banana-dance:

Looks good though! LOL, don't you hate when these things sneak up on you?

by **TuscoTodd** » Mon Jan 18, 2016 7:17 pm

Thanks Harry!
I had great plans for making progress on it through December - but between work travel and the holidays... well - you get the idea! LOL!
Sooooo - she might end up having to wait for next year...
(Bummer as there are some SWEET cars in the field to trade paint with this year! )

Newbie here. I have been wondering if those snap tites would be a good candidate to make a scratch build out of. Do you plan on making a scratch build out of it? Did you need to remove the hood decal or did you just paint over it?
Thanks

Snowdog, its the single most used body for fun builds on this site as far as I know. I think they have dropped some of the ones we used a lot a few years ago, but the chopped '36 Ford coupe, '69 Camaro Z28, '71 Mach 1 Mustang, and '34 Ford Panel truck are still easy to find.

Todd, I'm mailing mine tomorrow, it'll make it if you have it finished by 3pm EDST.

Man! I shipped mine today and thought I'd be the latest! Guess I look pretty early now LOL!

Sorry to see you not get in Todd, looks like a great start.

Heck I may have to next day mine. Gotta get the interior mounted and the body mounts in.

looks the part Todd, those ole camaro`s never really get old do they. A great race car can always be dreamed up with them.

I was going to remind you of that, but you beat me to it. I have already got a body for next year's car, so I'm planning ahead. You're ahead of me now, eh?
