Guest mikro137 Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 personal favorites.... `32 Ford 3-Window Coupe Street Rod One of the all-time greats! The classic 3-window coupe was a special body produced for Ford that grabbed the attention of all the street rod enthusiasts. Features: Ford 302 engine mounted on a one-piece frame with detachable fenders, waterslide decals. this has sooo many possibilities... i have built this one twice... Mazmanian `41 Willys Gasser In the `60s, one of the most popular drag racing classes were the gassers. Top teams from around the country were stuffing monster motors into a variety of cars, especially the `41 Willys. Big John was known for his fast speeds and gorgeous candy red paint. The Hemi powered coupe was one of the era's biggest crowd pleasers. Features: Detailed Hemi engine, authentic Big John graphics. christ almighty , this one was probally the most difficult to build ever (i built the stone woods and cook version) mostly due to poor molds , and warped parts (the replacements were warped as well...)

crave Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 when i was younger i used to really enjoy putting models together. i remember waiting what seemed like forever for lowrider bicycle to come out so i could check out new techniques. reading this thread reminds me, i should pick up a set...see if i still enjoy it as much as i used to.
