nice.

Q: what manufacturer made the bellytanker? or was it scratchbuilt?

the rpu is gonna hate the hills hauling the double-axle

 

Tweedy Pie on the work bench...

 

The belly tanker was scratch built...using the 1/32 scale drop tank from a Trumpeter P-38 Lightning model kit. The truck is a Pyro '30 Model A pick up, the trailer an Aurora Hot Rod and Show Car trailer...both 1/32 kits from the 60's. Lots and lots of parts box pieces involved.

 

impressive undertaking; thanks

 

Not mine!.....

 

Custom pick up is getting closer to done,just waiting on paint to dry on the rims.

 

Pontiac day at the model club.

 

quite a collection.

Q: is the green ('55?) in the first photo a dealer promotional model?

i can't quite make out the label. thanks

 

...1953 Ford Victoria, Lindberg kit.

 

i never remember this kit, and twice in two days i am faced with it:



the hobby muses are trying to tell me something!

 

Another custom truck from the parts I got a couple years ago,it's a shortened 62 F100 unibody,built with no chassis so it's getting one from a 56 F100 that has been shortened.

 

Some more I found.....

 

some nice classics you've got there.

Work in Progress Tweedy Pie

 

that's coming along beautifully.

the Revell kits of my youth beat me into submission every time.

 

There are definitely some very fragile little bits on these show rods! I didn't have the patience for them until I was in my twenties! Haha!

 

Almost done. Turns out I have Roth fever, so I started bodywork on the road agent. Revell used pink for the bubble in the reissue, when originally it was orange, so I had to find an original kit and will spray the bubble with a transparent orange.
