1935

I'm calling this done.
Not too happy with the foliage parts and not treal anxious to take it further.
It has served it's purpose which was to try out different stuff and be fun to do. Failure to get realistic (and permanant) foliage kind of quelched that.
It was fun, tho, but it's taking up a lot of room. I'm not too sure of it's future.
Thank you all for looking, and the great comments during the ordeal

It might have been a lot of trouble, but well worth it. It came out fantastic. So much to see, so many different things you did with it. I love it. Greg.

you seem disappointed, but this is a very nice model in so many ways, what's next after the snow machine?

Tom,
I got a 1960 Impala for xmas... not really my thing, but it has a nice looking 409 - too nice to be under a hood !
I'm thinkin down and dirty hot rod ;D
I need to come up with a 30's truck cab or my Grail, a model A coupe. Seems like all I have in the salvage yard are roadster bodies

[bob29579]

So you're looking to trade a 60 Impala missing a 409 ? Hmmm.... I don't have a model A, but what else might you be looking for along with the truck cab ?

Now I wish I had not put this one on ebay. Hubley model A pickup. I had forgotten about it.

Thanks, Bob. The Impala was a gift from a family member and I kinda feel obligated to use it. I ain't above pro streeting a sedan ;D
I plan a trip tp Ocala's Hobby Lobby soon to look for an A coupe.
I know there are resins available but if I can score a kit, it won't be much more than just a resin body alone.

Ok, just thought I'd offer. By the way, I think you can do pro streets on here. Now would be a good time to start a new catagory.

Alex and I discussed this a while back, Bob, when similar requests were made.
We agreed we wanted to keep the integrity of the forum theme, but there should be a place for other things. So Alex created the 'Beauty Queen' section.
I used that for Larry's Little Willys street rod.

BTW. I do hang sometimes on a forum for prostreet/ promod. Kind of specialized like Rustbuckets....and equally slow
