Proposed box art for AMT limited edition release made possible by Model King, Dave Burket.

Shocks,springs and grill work are combined scratchbuilt and aftermarket.

Body was chopped and lowered extensively, new rub rails were made, and rims are my #R-001's and R-007's.

The rear push bar consists of two bumpers from the AMT 34 Ford modified kit as well as the headers.

These rear tires were made from ground down American Satco Mickey Thompsons.

Aluminum header dumps were made from K&S Aluminum tubing and the decals, except for my name, were Fred Cady.

Valve stems, wheel decals, tire stencils and thinned down washes are always good easy things to add for detail.

Now here's a short track car!! Built by my good friend Tony Dye.

Tony fabricated this nose piece, re-shaped, and shortened this whole front end to get this right on the money look.

I believe Tony used my Late Model #R-009 rim set and an assortment of parts pack decals on this 701/2 AMT Baldwin Camaro.

J Lo doesn't have a rear end this nice guys! The spoiler was made from clear lexan and looks awsome.

Tony is mastering a rubber nose similar to this for me to cast so hang in there! I wish you all could see this car close up.

My attempt to keep up with Tony. We built the Camaro and the Mustang at the same time for the 05 Birmingham, Alabama show.

After I took this picture I copied Tony an put a clear spoiler on the deck also.

The rear rims are #R-004 and the fronts are #R-017. Decals are from Fred Cady.

Dash gauges are from Model Car Garage and my name decal is from the home computer.

This is the view I wanted everyone to have when I use to race in the 70's, IT DIDN"T HAPPEN.

Tony Dye's modified Mustang. Tony used our body, rims, fuel cell, backing plates, and tires on this AMT kit.

Tony comes up with great racing paint schemes!

The rims were painted with Alcad chrome and paint detailed.

Here's a nice close up. Shabo lettering on our proto-type left rear.(hopefully a future release)

Different shot of the same type tire on the right front. Tony also mastered this tire for me.

Sent in by customer Gary Sutherlin. Nice work Gary.

Sent in by Gary Sutherlin. This is what I like, something different!! Gary, "YOU DA MAN!

Ricky Moore's Pinto is exceptional! You guys looking for tires, Ricky grinds the tread off the stock kit tires and adds Shabo lettering

Ricky's tough competition at model shows, but a good friend to have. Nice job Ricky!

Here's a Jack Ingram Nova sent to me by Mark Jeffries. This baby is right on the money!

Mark, this thing is sweet. Keep em' coming!!

James "Clutch" Coomer's 65 Ford looks pretty wicked. I'd really like to see this one up close!

Another "Clutch" short track Kentucky clay slinger. Hard to tell if Clutch ain't trying to slip a real car in on us!

Jim Brewer sent this pic of the AWSOME "Big Donkey", #707. I know you got more shots of this beauty Jim.

Another Jim Brewer classic, Al Tasnady's #39.

Michael Watts sent me these next six mods. some time back, and I will post narrative with them soon.

Mike Griesemer sent the next two entries in, The #00 and #57. Real nice clean builds Mike!

I would have like to have taken some credit here, but I believe Mike used rims from the early days of ERC, but a lot looks scratch built also.

Gary Sutherlin, (one of my first customers), sends this nice clean Pinto in to us. Nice work Gary!

"This is what I'm Talkin Bout!" Imagination and Fantasy! Remember at one time, someone said, "what if I put a Pinto body on it?" Another from Gary Sutherlin, Excellent!

A Harry McCaughey build of Kenny Slaybaugh's #55 Galaxie that ran at Lincoln & Susquehana, Pa. If I close my eyes a minute I think I can see it pulling out on the track.

Another Harry McCaughey rendition. This is Check Adam's #88 Galaxie which ran at Selinsgrove, Pa.

Mark Jeffries wanted to try modified building for a change of pace with this AWSOME coupe.

I saw this coupe up close and personal at the Louisville, Kentucky show and it is sweet!

Another Mark Jeffries modified, #9 Ralph Brinkley. Beautiful Mark!

I think Mark is getting in to these old modifieds.Looks good from all angles.

Mark didn't send me this one, so I had to get it on my own. Check out this detail!

Another classic sent to us by James Brewer. It's a real beauty James!
