I like them all especially the Gulf car. But I am biased towards that color. This one is mine. Your cars are beautiful.

Gorgeous work. Looks like an old 175 Squarewave? Great welder, sold one last year for a new TIG 200 and I miss it at times.

As much as I love Martini and Gulf livery (and I have a Martini livery car right now), that 'Hippie' is going to be AMAZING!

Looking forward to seeing it painted and find out your plans for number 4!

Makes my feeble resto seem almost primary school-ish!

Just staggering motivation for me. Thanks for posting.

The first of the 4 builds I'm doing is back from the paint shop and ready for assembly. All the stripes and Gulf logo were painted on, no vinyl or fiberglass on this build.

How's this car coming along? Any chance it will be at Rennsport in Monterey?
