Here's a few more bodies I've been working on. This Cadillac PM is a different version than Eagles and then I modified the front nose slightly.  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr The one in the rear is before I extended the nose out bit. The front is after extended.  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr With extended nose.

These are 2 different Funny cars from the 60's. The Bronco Buster pick up was a 66 Bronco ? I took a 74 Bronco and did some cutting and stretching to make it into a pick up and came up with something similar ?  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr The Real one. This one I took a 67 Mustang Stretched and narrowed it to resemble The Phony Pony which had a dragster chassis under it.

OK this is the last one. I have way to many to post. This one I don't remember seeing when I was young I was a Funny Car guy only back then I wish I would've been more open minded back then I missed a lot of history. Some day maybe I'll actually post one painted ?  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr |

Even with all the classes they have today I'd rather watch the nostalgic cars. Gassers, altereds, front engine dragsters those have to be the most amazing to watch. I love those bodies! Keep them coming.

Definitely agree with Adam and Eagle. The nostalgic cars are the best. Always great to see what you’ve been up to!
BTW, very well executed procrastination this time! Cars should get the right before the deadline.🤨

Got up this morning with tons of stuff to do and this is what I spent all of my morning doing. Then went and greased and changed some tires on my truck and trailer until after dark  I make a living with the truck and trailer but I guess it's priority is below slot cars ? I got this 65 Chevy long bed and started out doing a stock version thinking of JJ and his 64. And I think JJ's is a short bed so I made it into a short bed. Then after I finished that I thought I wonder if I can chop the the top ? Then that was it  . This is what I ended up with. Of coarse I'll be sending JJ some when I re do a few things.  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr Stock version with the bed shortened.  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr Modified version  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr I'll cut a hole in the hood and see what it looks like with a Big Old Supercharger If you notice I turned the rear bumper upside down for wheelie bar clearance. |

OK Rick.......page 9 of your thread here has left me dizzy!! I already have enough projects that I can't get too. Now I have several more to add to the list. The Cadillacs are freakin' SICK.....oh and that Bronco WOW! But the truck.......well I don't think I need to say anything. The casting that I do is actually a '62 C10 which is slightly different than my 1/1 truck. Your '66 is the same as mine soooooo you know I gotta have it!! Buy...trade...whatever you want when they are ready. Are you going to have the stock version available?
Fast Freddy comes to mind with your race version. Been wanting to do a replica of his C10 for awhile now. I patterned my Pro Mod casting after his but I did not stretch the front end.

Jeff Thank You for reminding of The Fast Freddy truck. It's gotta be be the Coolest Baadest Drag Truck of any kind. And it kinda slipped my mind. So yesterday I started a new version to replicate Freddy's. Then it dawned on me I bought a 1/24 resin Fast Freddy Truck a couple of years ago and plum forgot. So when I get time I'm going to attempt to scan it and if it's a success ? That will be way cool. And yes I'll send you a stock version or two and what ever else I come up with.  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr This is the 1/24 resin body I will attempt to scan. It's a bitchen replica !! |

The Farm needs to Harvest more Funny Cars but for now it seems like The Pro Mods have popping up. Having a run on Fast Freddy's. This one is a new version of the first one I did.  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr Then this is the one I scanned from the 1/24 scale resin body. It turned out pretty good its got a few flaws. Was surprised it came out as good as it did cuz it's got a lot of nooks and cranny's to scan. I didn't put the rear spoiler that came with the resin body but made my own.  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr Then in between The Fast Freddy's I did this 65 Mustang  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr and this 65 Nova  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr And a engine for the dragster. This probably ain't the final one ? Most likely I'll change it a few more times ? It's giving me fits trying to make it fit and look close to as real as possible. It's like trying to strap it to a pig.  Untitled by rick williamson, on Flickr |

Trucks look fantastic Rick. Think I like your version best.
Engine for the AW dragster looks sooo much better than the factory version.
Details on the Mustang and Nova are very crisp and sharp.
You’re really nailing this 3D printing!

Awesome work Rick. I have not done any trucks yet, but I'll get around to it. I can see that you have access to a much, much better scanner than I have. My scanner won't come close to that. I will have to figure something else out. Once again amazing work!!
