Hi Guys, I decided it was time to crawl out of the box,
and try to join the scratch builders. I'd like to build cars like the ones
I drool over in the model magazines. I finally believe in me, and I
fully intend to let it show. Here is the start of my current project,
It's not intended to be 100% accurate. Based on the basics, and
loaded down with scratch built parts... Springs, Shackles, Steering,
Wires, and plumbing, Cast my own rear tires. Hope to meet your
approval... Thanks for lookin!
Bill
