A rear bodyshell of a US-built 1939 Ford 2-door, ‘5-window’ Coupe. I am not sure if this was originally a Deluxe or a Standard model; according to research, no '39 Ford coupe had any rear seat. The car still had a VIN plaque on the cowl. This example was in very rough condition, with most of the parts missing, very little trim, no front clip, no fenders, lots of corrosion, rust and harsh rot around all edges, also no floors, gutted interior (other than a driver’s sun-visor and some original dash gauges), no steering column or powertrain, and a harsh dent along the offside of the body. The original chassis was long since removed, and an inferior replacement frame was welded underneath. However, the owner is a very skilled sheet metal worker, fabricator and experienced auto body specialist who is confident he can transform this survivor into a serous kustom restomod someday. More power to him! The car over to the right of the picture, obscured undercover is the bodyshell of a 1957 Chevy 2-door post-sedan.

I was in the area of an agricultural-type commercial business/industrial park out in a fairly local location, arrived a little early for an appointment, and decided to have a short gander just on the chance - the off-chance that I might see something somewhat interesting around the corner here (I occasionally find “interesting” things in these such areas), saw an old neglected bulldozer, a late type 1 VW Beetle, and as it just so happened - there this ’39 Ford was! With a ’57 Chevy bodyshell next to it! Just goes to show - There are still lots of old cars about! Even this far into the 21st century, there are still so many interesting things still waiting to be discovered!

A beautiful restomod by the owner, who took several years to build this car just the way he wanted it. Probably the nicest E9 I have ever seen. Peachtree Corners Festival 10th Anniversary celebration.
Fabulous Firs.
Mr Jon Elliott recently wrapped up a west coast vacation with a visit to Cars & Coffee. We needed help getting the last holiday tree in place and Jon was perfectly equipped to pitch in with his ultra-classy restomod Vantage V8. Cheers, Jon!
This build is an extensively modified version of Jon Elliott’s regal Aston Martin Vantage kit. I upgraded all the light bluish gray elements to chrome, altered the roofline to accommodate Santa Jon, added a utility roof rack, and stanced it on chrome wheels which also appear here with super premium extra flair due to some absolutely brilliant BBS wheel inserts designed by @Prototyp.
I hope you enjoy and Happy Holidays!

Street Muscle Legends - Chapter 6
GTO or GTFO.
Credited with paving the way for the muscle car trend, the GTO appeared on the scene in the mid ’60s with serious attitude, big power and the looks to match. An outstanding example arrived at the shop recently for the PYP stance treatment and a new tuning profile that's been putting smiles on all the faces :)
I hope you enjoy!

I bought a pre built Lego F40, with missing pieces. Using what I had on hand I upgraded it. I tried to make it look closer to an F50 but it falls short of the mark. I may change it more it or just scrap it entirely. I haven't decided yet. Let me know what you think of it in the comments.

This isn't exactly my MOC. I bought this off of Ebay over 20 years ago, and it stood proudly in my city for many years. The opportunity to display it at Our National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows, brought it out of storage, and restoration began. I loved what the original creator did with this so I wanted to keep it as stock as possible, but many of the white bricks had yellowed, so a restoration was required.
I started with a digital rebuild of the original for reference later durring reconstruction. Then I deconstructed it and restored the white parts with Hydrogen Peroxide and sunlight. While the construction could've been better, I kept it the same more or less when I rebuilt it and used as many of the original parts as possible. I discoverd a few Mega blocks in it, which were promptly discarded and replaced with Lego. The interior was the most changed with the upgraded sink, a new drinks dispenser, drawers and cabinets under the counter, additional staff, new cash registers, and menus on the wall. Next I added a roof, which wast required to be in city display, and I added lights to it, making it my first lit building ever. I also added an extra picnic table, moved a gate over, and changed the front windows to match the others.
I want to thank whoever originally built this MOC and sold it to me on Ebay. I don't know who it was as Ebay history dosn't go back that far, But this has been a cherrished part of my collection and will continue to be for many years to come. It will be on display at Our National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows from Nov 18 2022 to New Years eve 2022 as part of the GTW LUG City display.

I cannot overstate how nice this truck is. It belongs to a guy who moved into my area in recent years and has become a friend. The engine is a far-from-stock Ford 302. It has independant front suspension and a number of other mechanical modifications to make it pleasant to drive. The paint is near flawless, and was done over ten years ago.

Updated pictures of a reworked body: If you have followed me or this car you know it has taken many body shapes. Originally trying to do some kind of wide body thing…FAIL! Dialed back to resto…MEH! Always happy with the internals, just couldn’t quite figure out what I wanted out of the body. I’m pleased with this version still maintaining a little bit of a modern look, however if I was to do it over…Thank you to everyone who has supported this build through all of it’s changes and the constructive criticism that pushed me to keep improving it.

Probablemente uno de los vehículos más interesantes en la concentración de ayer. Es un gran trabajo de restomod con una imagen fantástica que pertenece a un anticuario del condado de Pacer. Ha sido restaurado y modificado con mucho gusto. El interior está tapizado al gusto moderno, el original era metal al descubierto. Las ruedas son modernas por lo que supongo otras modificaciones. La cama tiene una caja de metal que pudiera ser una caja de herramientas pero el reflejo en el interior de la tapa me intriga y me hace sospechar la posibilidad de un motor central. El original tenía el motor delantero. Recomiendo fijarse en el reflejo de la tapa en la cama. Se pueden apreciar los cables saliendo del distribuidor. El motor es central. Vaya trabajo y todo dentro de una razonable semblanza al original.
