yep, that 8 ball is the cats keister, Joe. Your stuff is still making me want to go try a car but I still cant find a hearse or a suitable station wagon. Once I do then look out. Kit bash galore. A gasser morgue car? Y not?

Thanks Paul! You know I didn't set out to start building autos. I was ho-humming along happy building my aircraft and then I did that resto on my ol' Challenger back in late '14 and that was it. I am, however, planning an aircraft build for later in this year after I get through with this one though. As for right now I'm having a whale of a time doing what I'm doing. Be careful......this can be addictive. :whistle:

Dude, I do tiny stuff related to my favorite scale, but that "8-Ball" is over the top man! Brilliant!
