  1. Building it in the same colors as the hard top
  2. I robbed the engine out of this for one of the 39s but had to do something with it,found a better chassis for it and installed the Pontiac engine from the Monogram 34 Ford kit. It was painted and I done some detailing on it.
  3. Making some progress,this one will mostly be stock except for a 53 Corvette exhaust manifold.
  4. This one will be the coupe and be more stock this time.
  5. There is a coupe version that I will doing the same with when I find one,the coupe and sedan delivery are late 70s street rods and the coupe does not come with hood sides so a extra sedan delivery hood will be needed and will have to find a correct seat as it has late 70s styled bucked seats too.
  6. It does not have the correct seats and I used the bucket seats from the AMT 34 Ford pickup,the engine is from the Monogram 53 Chevy hardtop kit that I think comes with stock and speed equipment. The exhaust manifold is from a Monogram 53/54 Corvette that I have never seen but somehow had the engine,the rims and tires I had in stock and the hubcaps are from the AMT 37 Chevy kits.
  7. I think the engine came from the 53 hardtop kit and the split manifold came from a 53 or 54 Corvette kit I never seen before but some how I ended up with a partial engine
  8. Picked up a new body and chassis is done,going from late 70s street rod to old school shop truck.
  9. With me being on the frugal side I tend to buy incomplete projects so I put them together with whatever parts I can get cheap and not willing to spend the money to get all the correct parts so I have very few cars that have 100 percent correct parts. And I do not own a trailer so what ever I get has to be able to go down the highway without being a burden to everyone else so there are going to be some modifications to do that like gear ratios,overdrive trans and better brakes if needed. Whatever I have looks like it's supposed to on the outside but the mechanicals not so much,when I bought my 65 Mercury I decided to leave it alone since it's from the era it can handle the highways. I like them all.
  10. Another thrift store rescue that I started on today,going to get rid of the street rod look and going for a slightly more stock look. Took the big block out and add a six from the 53 hard top lit
