  3. Thats quite a good start for a 17 year old. You started in the hobby with a bang.

    Wow. Quite impressive.
    I was too busy chasing girls in the 70’s to build something like that.
    Cool that you can still keep tabs on it.
    Looks great for a teenager.

    Rich, that's a great little Rod/Custom. I'm guessing both Dad and Mom were there for morale support and the rest, as they say, is history. The Rambler Scrambler ain't too shabby, either (with or without the girl)!

  21. I dig both versions of the coupe, just not the snorkel scoop. Is that a real deal SC/Rambler? I can't remember seeing ythat color combo. Nice
