Your a rookie when it comes to ramp trucks, I have two Sox & Martin ramp trucks on order, supposed to maybe be in the very end of September but I won't hold my breath, when all is said and done I will have a total of 20 1/18 scale ramp trucks, four of them will be plain white Chevrolet's that I will have themed with water slide decals. I have a plain white Chevrolet ramp truck on the way right now that I am going to put my Quicksilver Camaro on it, I am theming it as a Chevrolet Racing hauler with a set of flamed Chevrolet Racing decals on the left and right doors among other decals for the ramp body.

@john3976 - Rookie?  Ha!  It's worse than that!  Compared to your considerable and magnificent collection, I'm just an infant playing in AA!  When I grow up, I wanna be just like you!  🤣

Love your fabricated Ford hauler.

That hauler is a work of art (worthy of a magazine article 😉) but that long-nose-Stang was also fabricated. Now THAT'S alot of work!

LOL, Marty I enjoy the photos everyone puts up of the different cars and trucks, while many are not what I collect the photos of different cars from different time periods is very interesting.

@chris -  Without a doubt, the longnose Mustang was the most difficult modification project I ever tackled.  My original plan was a disaster and total failure.  I literally had to scrap it and replace it with an entirely different approach.  Actually, the only reason I could complete it is that I used you as my inspiration.  When I was trying to figure out solutions, I asked myself, "What would Chris do?  How would 'The Professor' solve this problem?"  Fortunately, that method worked as I was able to power through and complete the project.  But without any question, I almost gave up on it.

Awe sucks, thanks....but I'M SO GLAD YOU hung in there. This is one BEAUTIFUL vintage "funny car" and the PERFECT compliment to this soon-to-be-released 1/18 "short-nose" Gas Ronda 'Stang!

@chris - Yes, I have this one on order.  It's a "Must Have" model.  I also ordered the Bill Lawton Tasca version and purchased a Tasca Thunderbolt so they could be displayed together.

Now, the Bill Lawton longnose would be cool too, 'eh?  LOL!
