Here he comes to save the day!
Hey everyone, hows it going? I have been very busy but have been making slow forward movement on the Topolino.
Physical construction hasnt started, but I have collected some more parts and settled in on the basic direction for the build, and thats where the real news lies.
Some of you will remember the back and forth I did way back when I scored the body. I know now what I will be doing.
I WONT be building the 60's drag car. About a week ago I made the decision to go ratrod all the way. I just couldnt get inspired with the racecar version. I tried. I concidered selling the body for about 2 weeks and then thought I would give the old Fiat one more chance. I lowered the frame, pushed the front axle forward, channeled the body, tossed the hood, changed the headers to lake style and added a viariation of my 46 Chevy truck headlights and I'm in love and on fire once again.
The build will be easier and cheaper but most importantly its what I wanted all along, I just had to get there.
Love to hear what you think.
These pics are void of much of the detail as I am still organizing things.
