I'm shooting for a old 60's style show rod for sure... I'm sick of going to the world of wheels see these new cars with big wheels... Really make's me sick.... That's not what made the world of wheels and other big show's the show's they use to be..... The really Custom cars are a thing of the past... Few people are really gone after that type of build today.... I would love to bring that back... And will try to do at least one a year if I can... This car should have be done by now... But it will come.... I hope to tour with it... If it come's out like I'm hoping.... Thanks again guy's.. It means a lot to hear all the different idea's..

Thanks..I been a little busy with a couple of other things,,, But they will come..

Wood steering wheel coming up straight at a 90 degree angle from the floor boards, and Herman Munster somewhere nearbye!

I was going to do that with the steering,, But I decided not to because everything would be right in the door openning....A lot of people that come to my shop, call it the Munster's car... I should call them and ask if they want to use it to make a new show...LOL

The four exhaust pipe's will run a long side the body like a running board all side by side..Turning out before the back tire... I just put these homemade zoomies on it for now... They belong to a friend of mine..

I would think that the purple "Pizza Wagon" would be one of Dan Woods creations. From memory, He also did the Ice Truck and the Milk Truck.

Read an article about him a year or so back - probably in The Rodders Journal. He was incredibly talented and built his first show car at about age 16.

Thanks..Will post as I have them..

I was able to get all the bottom in primer...

I'm building my drive shaft right now...

Man you are very talented. I my self am doing a copy of an old drag car. The car I am copying is called pure hell. Some of the things will be the same. Some of the things I am changing so I can drive it on the street are I will have a [parachute on the back it will be a dummy one it will be hinged to hid the gas cap I talked to Rich Guasco about it and he gave me a big thumbs up I have been wanting to do this for a long time I have the body and my frame is all done. I will be running a small block blown chevy like the orignal.

Thanks.... I never seen it as talented,,, I always looked at it as being determined.... I push myself to go beyond on each build.... I'm the hardest one I have to please... I have about 15 builds in my head and can't seem to get them all built... Sounds like you have a nice one your building.. They really light a fire once you start them... I can't wait to see this one painted.... Coming up with the right color is going to be the hardest thing I will have to come up with.... I hope I nail it... Good luck with your build.... Thanks again..
