Seems like forever since I posted anything, anywhere, but lost my 17 year old computer to natural causes many months ago, and just got a new one a couple weeks ago. Of course one must learn everything all over again, and.....my how things change in those months. So, here's a peek at what I'm working on these days....  I've had an original oval fuel tank, and mount, along with a yellow turtle deck from a Swee T kit, so I started out with two of the new reissued Ford "T" Street Rod kits, a new Blue Bandito, a newly reissued Lil Coffin, two '30 Ford woodys, and one set of '32 Ford roadster front brake backing plates. On the pearl green car I used the brake backing plates (modified), the wheels & tires, and seats from the Blue Bandito. The turtle deck car uses the brake backing plates from the '32, and the wheels & tires from the Lil Coffin. My plan is to scratch build the headers for both, but the green car is going to get headers like the Big Rod!!!

Be careful Big John... These Little T's are known to be an addictive, and contagious desire.
Just looking at them makes you want to own one... or two!
Super Clean work as usual! Bravo my fiend!

I like the look of those headers John! And those two builds are about as sweet as it gets. I may not be around much lately but every time I come back and see some work such as this it gives me those urges. I just wish I had the time at the moment to sit down and work on something. Until then, keep up the great work and I'll sit back in the moments I have here and enjoy looking at them all.
