I am not entered in the Name Contest but will probably have several for the ShowRod Contest. This is just an early sneak peak of one of my builds! ******WARNING FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT LIKE "IN PROGRESS" LOOK AWAY NOW************************** ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D!!!!!   Lil' mixer has stretched chassis from the Lil' yeller so the chassis will have three rear axles to support the weight of the "addams mansion" Thank you for you time and consideration!!!!  8-)Fred |

I'm guessing it'll get purplish highlights... just like Dawie's drawing.

Whoa Scurvy, those are kool!!!............I was wondering what you were refering to. I personally like the Family Car and the Big Shot!! ;D ;D..I could see using a hearse for the family car  . I am keeping my build pretty much the lil' mixer with 3 axles and the plopping the addams house on the back, just have to decide wheather to make it shiney or old and abused? |

I'd do the Cab and Chassis full-on Show rod with The mansion being really old looking, might give it a nice contrast |

WOW! Soemone finally doing it! I always thought this was very kool! You have GOT to make it really old and creepy Fred! Maybe add some bats flying out of it on some really fine guitar string? You can find some in the Creepy T kit to scale. I may have some if you need them! Good going! Keep us posted!

Fred.. Very Kool project. The Adams house! Of coarse why
didn't I think of that..See I have been thinking of building
something like Dawie's drawing. That picture has been my desktop for months. I have some parts put aside for it like
a `25 T bucket, Big long motor from a diecast, A perfect squared
frame to hold the house, Styrene sheet building sides..
But none of that counts untill it's built.. You my friend are
doing Great so far..
BiLL..
