Dale the blood drops are an awesome idea! Why not just taper them a little more then they are with a droplet at the very tip?

Looking really good Dale. Love everything you're doing so far. That color and paint job is looking killer too, I love it.
Can't wait to see more progress.

Looks good, Dale. I think a 29-34 grille should look good. Might want to reshape any grill you use to fit the theme. I think you have time. Can't wait to see the wheels you plan to use.

The work is wonderful! Paint is among the prettiest I've seen. Great work too on the steps on how to hinge the doors!

I can send ya a front end just dont know how long it would take to get to ya. could put in a envalope and send it Thanks very much for the offer Doc, but by the time it got here, it would turn into the christmas build.  I will just have to pull my finger out and fabricate one, don't know how i will go though. Thanks Iceman , i have some wheels picked out, just trying to find the right tyre for the rear though, harron68, way to kind mate, but thanks. Now, back to the bench, got to make the front end and do a bit more to the 1:1, i need it on the road by mid week. |

Interesting choice. Are they gasser rims? Or dragster ones? Oh man! I'm excited to see it done.

John, yes, the front is going to be LOOOOOOWWWW, but the rear has only been done a bit as i still need to fit those tyres under the guards yet. Iceman, i have no honest clue what these wheels came out of, as the rim and tyre choice came out of the spares box, i know i had to ream out the tyre a bit to fit the rim inside. And i can't wait either mate. |

Looking awesome DC - as always!!
I wonder, for the grill, maybe a set of teeth? Or something like a set of teeth that you sometimes see on big rigs? Those grill covers, you know what I mean? |

Thanks CC, mate , i know exactly what you mean, but am going to go with a 32 grill, lowered into the frame a bit and a few blood droplets hanging off the bottom i think. That's the plan at the moment mate, will see what i dream up after a few more beers tonight.  |

Dale, so yer "raking" it..... Just slightly different then "Slamming".....But still...... That would be a YES. Any more info, i will have to erase your memory so that it will still be a surprise at the end, and i am also battling to get it finished as i spent all my week-end on the 1:1 again, and the end of the month finishes earlier here than over there.  |

Erase my memory? Good luck with that one! I just have ta ask, and speak thoughts, on the matter, but you knew that!
As far as the "surprise" it is already! Just the fact that your "raking" it and not slamming it, is a surprise all in itself!
