I've seen that "car"in person many times. Just about the ugliest thing I've ever seen. But "to each thier own" as they say.

John... I don't know what they are putting in the water in LA but you sure come up with some Crazy stuff for sure... :lol::lol:. This is going to be a totally cool build. I have know over the years that you love subjects like this and this one has your name written all over it. You will be able to pull this off in your sleep. Looking forward to when you start this one.

 

Raul.... Ok man that is just cool

It look me a minute to figure out why you needed a '74 Olds. then I relooked at the roof line. This is some what like the Dora built with a Ford wagon rear window for a windshield. Should be a fun build to watch.

John,

How about building this T-Bird hauler?   It would look great pulling a trailer with a T-Bird-based open-wheel roadster in tow.

I agree! AND you wouldn't be hacking up two rare old kits to do it.

Well if someone had shown me a pic of the Green Goblin before today, I'd have said, "That looks like something John T would build."

Nice to see that I would have been right. Looking forward to it.

John... wow Brother, looks like you have the basics of the body all done and all you have to do is sand and add some putty and she is ready for paint. Looking good and impressive for sure, just like the real thing.
