sunday models 1/24/2010

Whatcha workin on?

 

DangNothing up this sunday? I'm still looking for something cool to build.I didn't get a chance to go to Pomona swap meet last week.

 

'62 Catalina g***er (#2) and garage sale find '33 willys tube frame g***er. Pontiac has a blown 421 and willy gets a Nailhead.

 

got nothing

 

Here's a nomad i just finished, but i painted it 20 years ago. And some older ones.

 

I think I posted a photo of this car under construction and now here it is finished.



A small block Chevy Top Fuel car.

Then I started work on this:

 

Some killer stuff guys! Is that rail ch***is scratchbuilt or is out of a current kit? That needs to go on my shelf of stuff to build!

I started a Thunderbolt a few years ago but just couldn't seem to find the time to get it finished so it got shelved. This thread and the Thunderbolt thread on here are just what I needed to get motivated again. Here's what I've got so far:







Deron

 

Any 1/18 Modders here? Centurion9

 

A little bit of both. The main part around the ****pit is from the newly re-issued Tommy Ivo dragster kit. Everything from the engine forward is scratch built from Evergreen styrene rod.

The Chevy powered car is shortened to 152" wheelbase. (The stock kit is 189"). The frame with the 426 Hemi is 204".

Here's that frame with a different engine:



Nice work on the Thunderbolt!

 

Here's a 50 for convertible with a 49 merc chopped hartop and merc grill shell.

 

Here is a scratch built model of my 41 Chrysler. I built in about 1977.

Workin on a 34 Ford coupe altered and picked up another 59 Ford hardtop and a couple of 57 Ford wagons (resin) at a model car swap.
