Looks like no one started a model thread this week so here goes. Have been working on a couple of non-H.A.M.B.friendly models lately. Other than that I am now done weathering the '39 Chevy, got to the point where it's looking overworked in a couple areas. Just need to find the headlight lenses and gas cap in my junk box and it's done. Picked up a pair of built '40 Fords as part of a ebay lot a while back. Both are glue bombs but have potential, especially the coupe. Guess I'll be starting to rebuild them next.
Looks good to me wojojo! Here's one i got in the Model build off. I call it "Berg in Deuce" Here's a link to the build off. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/group.php?do=discuss&group=&discussionid=23153 It is a Duecenberg frame and straight 8 engine. I cut the top off 32 Deuce coupe, but will keep it for a removable top. The grill is a cut down cell phone charger! Before the top came off! *******
I saw these on facebook. It was built by Anthony Garcia, famous lowrider model builder. I thought this was to good to p*** up showing... I guess its the metalflake thats killing me.
Here are two by Gary Seeds that are killer! This guys good too. The 64 Grand Prix and chopped 66 chevy are his , the corvair I got off the internet and can't remember who built it , but its good eye candy! Notice the doors and trunk are opened up on the Grand Prix!
i hate to fuss, but those '40's look like somebody took their time on them.... kinda nice for "glue bombs"... just saying.
You're right. Somebody did take the time to build them decently. They just used way more glue than needed. I actually broke the running boards on the green sedan trying to get them separated from the body.
Some basic Slot builds.. This 33 was built hours before the slot car land speed record event and cruised over 50 MPH thru the traps on a 200 ft plastic track..thats over 1300 MPH in scale.. haha My new dragstrip...plus i have two wood ovals in the shop.. Some of my Modified Builds.. Wood
I wish I either had room to make my own drag strip od there was one somewhere near me! Here is one of my cars, I think everyone has seen it but hell, here it is again. I hear the moans of pain, yes I posted that again! Doc.
