'40 Ford Pick Up Gasser

"Will just have to do"? Heck it looks great to me. Gotta, love those old Boyd colors - they're real standouts.

Great job.

I was told by the guys at Fantasy World that when Boyd died they quit making the paint. Butcher Bob was looking for some of the Green Pearl and that's what he was told at the check out stand. I was like eavesdropping. LOL

That store is closed also. I was there for a funeral last November or December and when I stopped by they had a sign up saying they were out of business.

  Quantities are going down and prices are going up. Soon, most of us won't be able to afford the hobby.  

Engine angle still looks severe to me. Guess I'd better wait until it's finished before I fret about it.   

It's looking great Bruce but I agree with Geezerman about the engine angle!

 Guys, guys, just set it in the engine bay to see what it looked like. It isn't in place or even glued. Just received my Ardun and blower parts today and hope to build the engine, which will be in it. Meanwhile, found some wheel backs which fit the rims and glued them into place. Won't have enough time to have this one ready for the show.
  

  

great stance and color !

Hi Bruce,

So sorry for my lateness Sir, I seemed to have missed this, sorry...

That is a sweet colour, yellow and black always look good together...

Andy...

Me too Bruce.   

She looks great up on her wheels. Perfect stance too.

Looking better with each update. Bring it home dawg.

 I'm bringin it! I B back on it!  

You need to get that new engine in and tested for the first seasons races.
Only a couple of weeks to go to Easter.

Looking Good - How's it going ??

 The engine is in and been test run. All the rest has been put together and am just waiting for a sunny day to do a photo shoot.

  

A Flathead !
I was expecting Hilborn Injectors on a late motor,
- but still a nice surprise !

Totally fooled me. Didn't see aFlathead coming. I was thinking Hemi. Not a bad choice, I like it.
