Just a little update on "Lisa" : Foiled and recleared Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki didn't resisted to detail the 59 Lancers... Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki
Wow!, that is beautiful! I usually look at the model car threads and think that most are pretty cool. But that 56 is incredible, The paint is awesome. Fantastic! if you can't tell,...I really like it! .
Zed, absolutely beautiful '56! I thought I'd kick in this week with a few late era front engined fuelers. This is a 1/16 scale Jr. Fueler: And one more T/F in 1/25 scale:
I've got a Model A on A rails goin'. I'm trying for a '40s hot rod vibe. It's not gonna run the 4 banger thats in the pic. I'll be using the banger in a future speedster project. Instead, it'll be running the flattie out of the Revell '32 Ford kit.
the paint scheme and color on that 56 is nice...considering paintin my car in similar colors...i want a comet grille for my 59'...
This is my first post here. The body is a 1/8 scale Willys coupe done in fibregl***. The ch***is comes from TDR Innovations and is tubular with an IFS and a 9" style rear end. I haven't seen many 8th scale postings here so hope you like this one. I'll post more as the build progresses.
very nice stuff guys, the paint work just gets better all the time. heres one of my fav trucks i built a few years back.
Thought you guys might want to see what I've been up to lately. Ive started building a replica of the Hollish Bros. Coupe. All Scratch built Ch***is Research TE 440 Ch***is.
The original car had a handmade blower manifold welded up from 12 pieces. mines a modified one from a Stone Woods and Cook kit The two hole injector is made from aluminum and plastic and will have alum bolts around the edge.. Here's the induction unit mocked up Pretty boring stuff really. I still need to figure out the chain drive Thanks for looking...
Well, its 15 degrees and snowing outside, so I figured I'd finish this one. Just picked this up, its an old re-issue, pretty cool. So I will try doing a custom this time. I might cut the top off and make it a convert.
Great builds this week. Love them all. I went to a show/swap today and picked up some goodies. I finally got a 59 Ford hardtop that I have been wanting for years. Now if I could get Zed to paint it.......
have you all checked out the model hot rod truck build off? voting has begun on the main board. mines the.............
I picked up the same one a month ago. it's in line to be started. Did you know if there are anymore cars in this "Customizing Series"? Brian
