Their site's project section seems to be down a lot, at least for me anyway. I follow on Facebook. I don't remember seeing any pics of the 54 Buick recently, but it was painted in the last pics and going together. FWIW, I like the 56 Buick, with the nailhead, more.

The Torino is just freaking awesome! If the FB pics of its progress are close to being up-to-date the Torino is still in bare metal, and a lot of sheet metal work going on. They posted 12 pics yesterday of taillight lenses being (CNC) machined and some sheet metal work (pedal box and interior).

These cars (built by the top builders) are really the "Kustoms" of the 21st century. They resemble the original cars, but have been reshaped in nearly every way possible. Absolutely awesome!

When that happens, just click on another tab such as "Schedule Events" and than click back onto the "Project" tab and it will work.

Thanks. I'll give that a try the next time it happens - today the Projects link is working for me. Hopefully, I can get back to my regular "fixes" again.

The "Custom Rod of the Year" was selected at Des Moines years ago but is now selected as a finalist at this event and the overall winner is selected from various other events including Des Moines presently.

There's a KILLER rendering along with a progress picture of a 69 Camaro being built by Greening Automotive in the latest issue of Camaro Performer.

Did any body see it?

If I read it right, they are shooting to debut it at Columbus. Maybe Steve can shim in and give us the scope.

Another on of Erci Brockmeyer's design. That guy does killer work.

I think Pinkees Rod Shop was planning on taking the mustang and camaro they had taken to the GNRS! Both subtle cars with over the top details! I've always loved Pinkees style and quality of their builds.
