Don't know what happenned to the pictures in the original post, but somehow they got deleted so I had Harry nuke the original thread and I figured I would start a new one. So Here is the inspiration for the build


Here is where we stand as of today







Chassis is done. I need to get some pic up of it after it is painted.

Still deciding on if I should have the hood open and have a motor setting up front or just glue the hood on and let it race

Man, That baby looks the Business right there! You have nailed that 1;1 car perfectly. Makes me want to build some 1/24th cars!
Really nice work.

A few before and after shots of the chassis. It came a long way from a crumpled mess!!! At one point I had a floor plate tack glued to the body and had it hot glued to the chassis. It actually run real good. I was really surprised about that :dance:











Notice the inside of the rear tires. These are some early Paul Gage tires when just the outer sidewalls were finished

I have always liked that body style. and U have made it (as they say in the south)
Can't wait to see the finished car.

Thanks for sharing ...J Y D

A few update pics. The Chassis runs good. It will go in for paint in a couple of weeks cause I am going out of town for a bit.
