heres mine, in no special order. this is merely a list of stuff I’ve come up w/ and know id love to build … 1. 68 chevy c-10 truck, turbocharged 455 poncho powered, on a shoestring engine budget. rest of vehicle preferably sponsored by various companies. would spend a good amount of time “on loan” to sponsoring co’s for use at major car shows. 2. Buick T-type / grand national clone - a “normal” regal with all the exterior mods, but a turbocharged buick 455 under the hood 3. 60’s thunderbird lead sled - have the drawings upstairs for it - starbird style 4. tri five chevy - have the drawings upstairs for it - car is a radical mix of 50’s gm styling cues, roof, headlights, front wheel wells, rear wheel wells, decklid, etc all come from different cars 5. “sparky” -the idea / car that started my “free t-bucket plans” project 6. 80’s thunderbird - sounds stupid but yea, have drawings for this car, includes a lift of hard top made from the original roof. 7. "bad intentionz - 80’s mustang convertable turned hard top , entire body restyled to look retro - i started this project once before, prompted by fords “sissy” restyle of the mustang in the 90’s, WELL before the new mustang came out. time and money doomed it the first time around 8. 50’s fat fender chevy - have a side view of this vehicle already - car is drawn so that its proportional to its stance. highest point of the roof is about 40-45" off the ground. 9. 67 mustang / ranchero - i should have bought this car when it was for sale in the area, but i realized id just have to cut it up to make it look “factory” … easier to start fresh … and it looks WAY better then it sounds 10. 80’s firebird - have drawings for this car … another one of those designs based on the “how it should have ben designed originally” deals … 11. cobra 427sc replica … big block, twin supercharged to mimic the look of the shelby king cobras … 12. shelby cobra daytona kit car 13. lotus 7 kit car 14. dune buggy - nothing special… just a dune buggy 15. rear engine pickup truck of some sort - SBC mated to a Porsche tranny of some sort 16. rebody a newer Porsche as a Porsche 550 spyder body (james dean’s car) 17. 51/53 Studebaker starlight coupe - a milder version of “frankenstude” 18. something insanely proportioned - on par w/ the kind of cars in the ratfink cartoons 19. something that looks like crass and bernie from “Car-toons” built it … just so i can have Trosley sign it, and maybe draw it as a print … i know theres more too … ---

\*I’d like to get ahold of my dad’s '55 Chevy…it’s in MN right now and he’s getting too old to build cars, so I’d like to do it up for him in an Overhaulin kind of way. LS7 with as much modern technology that could find it’s way into the car as possible. \*Next would be to finish off my Mustang…turbo 302 or 351 stroker, can never decide what I want from this thing. \*After that…I posted this once before…but I really would like to build a car I designed while in college. I’d need some help with this though as it would be a HUGE undertaking… ---
