Re: Project "Gold" 1969 shorty...the last one!!

Well.....as mentioned above....this build is my last 67-72...at least for a long while....I have sold, traded, thrown away, scrapped and given away most of my inventory and sold off all but (3) of my trucks.. After 20 years of playing with them I have decided to move my hobby in a little older direction. I have done a few older vehicles and only one other pre-war car but I have had it in my mind for some time to move on to the pre-war era. We here at Rottenwood Garage are still currently involved in (4) 67-72 budget builds for friends and fellow site members, including my gold 69, but all are winding down. I will soon be turning my attention to my latest acquisition pictured below.

Well, she is sold. Went to a good home. My last running driving 67-72 is gone.

Still have the 66 though.
