Some of build up has been covered before in past issues. The latest about "Fender Wall Headers" is cool but isn't it supposed to be "fender well headers"? WTF is a fender wall? At least the latest issue has no cop car stuff.

Magnetto covers the build of the Fairmont in his book on how to build altered wheelbase cars. Here's the link to it on Amazon (only ~$22 . . . Cheap!) Buy it! It's money well spent.

Hopefully next month there will be an article how to build fender wall headers for a Crown Vic. I can hardly wait. Cop cars do have fender walls,right?

Plastic ones . . .
[Wheels of creativity turning . . . .]
If the high-rise "gasser" revival keeps on for a while, I'm wondering how the troops would react to a P71 hiked-up on a beam front axle, no front bumper, and a mountain of big tires out back?
It certainly wouldn't be the first "more door" gasser . . . .

'80s gasser. Okay, the tubbed rear tires aren't right, there's too much engine sticking out of the hood opening, and its an import. But the neo-gasser look isn't really any more jarring than the neo-classic look was on all those midsize GM cars back in the '70s and '80s (e.g. Monte Carlo, Grand Prix, Buick Regal . . . .)

Probably jacked a little higher than necessary . . . and that Moon tank's mounting is a tad suspect. But a big car can make a striking neo-gasser.
