discussion Lindberg Ford Fooler

[Guest]

I have built this as both a road and TROG (The Race of Gentlemen Sand/beach race) car.

So with fenders/wings and windscreen for the road............







And as an old-timers beach racer (TROG)......Fenders and windscreen removed and a tonneau cover over the passenger seat.................

You certainly have a penchant for the unusual Patrick. That said, I do have a liking for early American hot rods myself.

Thanks guys and those who show interest. Yes very basic kits, old and some still had two sides plastic 'tyres'. So to build you have to add something else/different.

Yes Monica a 26 hour flight from London Heathrow to Sydney. Here at present it's spring so temps of 14 -16 C.from perhaps -5 in winter. Our eldest Son in Canada it's coming out of winter at -40C for 8 months towards +40C for 4 months, a big difference out there, That's only 6 hours London to Winnipeg or Calgary.
