I guess I will start the Sunday Model Thread with this one, The Revell Offy Kurtis Kraft Midget, I bought this with the intent of using the Offy in a Track-T but found the kit to nice not to build, and I had just built a truck that would make a good tow vehicle.
Haven't finished any new models this week but here's my '50 Chevy pickup from last week on the diorama I've been working on.
After seeing Tinman's post, I thought you might be interested in this. These are Track T style grills hammered out of typical kitchen spoons.
lots of great stuff this week, guys! I'm studying the many rag tops this week since the model I finally decided to start back into static modeling with is going to be a hard top converted into a homemade rag top. Keep 'em coming!
Lots of kool stuff today. I went to a toy show today and picked up some old built ups that I just thought I had to have. Picked up some 66/67 Fairlane drag cars too.
I finally got around to finishing a stalled project that has been sitting on my bench for a year. One of my favorite subjects are the low dollar drag cars from the sixties. This is would have run in the D/A class.
I used a T body and turtle deck from my dwindling supply of Revell Parts Packs. The chassis is home made using Evergreen plastic with a Revell front axle assembly. I forget what AMT kit the engine is from but I modified the manifold for three dueces, and added fuel lines and wiring.
Typical safety equipment in the sixties were supplied from Army surplus store. I found the safety belts in the parts box, painted them olive green.
