I am guessing 4 or more gallons of material to put color on that.

Nonsense. Unless you really wanted to hammer it on. We will have about a gallon of color on the hearse. Same for clear.

Well aren't you just Mr. Negative this morning.


Would make a good builder. After you replace everything but a couple sections of firewall....

So I was out driving with my cousin Sunday, we ran across the local SCCA doing some autocross.... Man there are a lot of boring cars running... Can't wait till next year!

But.....they are running.

Yes, I do get negative about someone wanting that kind of money for a bucket of non running rust.

 

[RustyHornet]

Yes they are running.... Much more than I'm doing.......

There was one really quick little VW. I was impressed.

1973 Charger Parts Car

Well it was raining today so no work on the deck.
I arranged all the bits and fit up the 12 bolt for the 70 442 Clone. Everything internally is new. Good axles/bearings and seats/Yuckon Posi unit. Richmond 3.45 gear set. "C" clip eliminators. Pinion/ring clearances are spot on.
It would be done but the seal in the assembly kit was to small in Dia. so that is where I stopped.

This is cool.

1966 Cadillac DeVille coupe

 

[churchmouse]

The freaking batmobile......Wow...that is a lot of car in flat black. I like.

 

[RustyHornet]

I like it a lot. May have to build one like that someday. Those Caddys are cheap. LS engine and overdrive auto. I'd rock that baby all day, would make a nice highway driver.
