Fairlane 500 the mild Kustom way...

 

Notre membre Didier a un bon talent de dessinateur et de peintre et il s'est risqué à l'esquisse de ce que pourrait être la Fairlane après traitement.

Our crew member Didier have some real drawer and  painter talent and he's done some sketch of what the Failane would look like...




Still Alive and well...

Hello Folks,

Peu de nouvelles durant ces mois d'hiver...Pour autant nous n'étions pas en hibernation. Le boulot a continué sur la Ford Fairlane, aussi sur la Bel Air 57 de Gerald. Une nouvelle voiture a rejoint le club, une Chevrolet Bel Air 1963 californienne, maintenant propriété de Marc...Une première sortie de quelques voitures le week-end dernier...Une virée à Allassac avec trois voitures dans une semaine....

A new car have join the club, a californian 63' Bel Air, now Marc's property...A first trip with some car last week end...A trip planned to Allassac with three cars...

 The most recent run...
 ...With some help thought!
 Marc and Philippe at work
 The beast is quite bare
 And the tuck n'roll is still to come...!
 Aaah the joy of driving, wind in the air and face...a kind of hot rod at present!
 The wacky wobblers!
 With some progress on the body nearly primed, the work continue on the chassis rails even with nearly two degrees (celsius) below zero.

Bare metal
