Re: My 55 GMC Blue Chip

Haha.... Yeah... almost..

That is really cool what you have there. My father in-law builds r/c planes, but he goes for pure speed with mono wings. I've seen a few of those big R/C's flying once and a while and it's crazy to see those things flying around. Looks like FUN!

Reminds me of a Family friend that use to build and restore original P51's. His company made reproduction parts for them too. He passed a few years back, but his wife still runs the company. They had a couple of them, but he passed when he crashed his P51 a few years back at an air show.

As for my user name Here is what it was originally based on. My 78' Triumph Spitfire. This was my first car and is still in pretty much the same shape as when I bought it. Although I've replaced a bunch of stuff and upgraded a few things, it's always been a fun car. This was also my 4th of July project this year. I ended up rebuilding the entire rear end of this thing from hub to hub, minus wheel bearings.
