I can't wait to see what body your going to use on this build.
Also looking forward to seeing what graphics you come up with for this one.
Waiting patiently. :)

Post by: Bob P. on December 29, 2019, 06:20:58 PM: Looks like the number 76 Falcon body modified. I see that Ford big block under the hood.
Independent front suspension on this one.
I usually went to Reading two or three times every year. Always rooted for Chamberlain and Brightbill. Prior to Gerald going to Reading to run the modified's, I watched him many times in the Don Rice Ford number 31 coupes and bugs.

Post by: dirtmodwrench on December 30, 2019, 10:47:09 PM: That is some nice fabrication work! One of my all-time favorite cars. Plus he ran a big old Ford, so I always rooted for him. Is that a Big Donkey resin Falcon body?

Post by: dirtmodwrench on December 31, 2019, 07:27:06 AM: I have got to learn how to play that fiddle!! I knew it wasn't a "stock" Larry body when I saw it, and the tweaks you've made definitely have it close to the real deal. Excellent modifications. Now I need to start planning how to tweak the '66 Cuda body I picked up from Larry.

Post by: Bob P. on December 31, 2019, 02:13:58 PM: Fantastic work David, you really have an eye for the proportions and little details.

Most of this stuff I don't even see needs changed and when I do see something, it's usually to late to make a change.
