New custom rides

I got really busy last weekend while my wife was out of town and after the kids went to bed.

Stripped, painted, swapped wheels, added engines, etc...

Left over bits, maybe I can melt the bodies for weight molds?

I need to keep an eye out for the Madfast car, that engine is pretty awesome...and metal. Love that Fangula. I just added that model to the league. Looks even meaner with that engine.

I have a couple 67 Novas that I love and have been taking my sweet time in trying to get up to racing quality. My laziness kicks in again.

I've often wondered what it would take to melt a car body. Probably more effort that I'd get out of it.

You do good custom work and my girlfriend says your photography skills are excellent as well!

i don't melt them down... i buy a few sheets of green, black & browm, felt =$ .25 each... then at cruise nights i give out the tar, grass and dirt with the scraps from my racers to the kids as junk yards.. they love 'em...(mom ???)
