Completed the tailgate and restoration on my Metal Masters windup Woody Wagon. Kept the original blue color. I did not like the yellow color for the woody part so I used a light brown and then hand brushed a darker brown to get a finish I liked.
Good Tuesday. I took a couple pictures of my grandson playing last night. He likes my old toys better than newer plastic unreal looking stuff.
And reupping this one I made for @Ryan a few years ago... including making the HAMB logo decal for the roof--
These were the Wix '50 88 coupe Christmas campaign cars for 1997 or '98, sold at one of the parts warehouses. They had a horrible undercarriage - these now just have tin can lids bent & drilled for axles underneath. Coin slot in deck lids filled, some paint ( the blue is '50 ''Crest Blue'' touchup from a real car). The maroon was from a $.69 mid-'60s Testor's can that still worked.
I was checking out the HAMB, and thought hay it’s Tuesday. So happy Tuesday to ya. So I took a few pictures with my phone. But don’t look at the OT cars. I’m to lazy to move them.
Dug through my junkyard of 1:64 scale cars I tore apart and decided to make something from some parts and pieces.
Haven't been doing much lately with any die-cast , been hanging out over on the plastic model side of town , but with all of this dry weather that's going around ...I thought I would check out that 32 Ford roadster that was submerged in the lake that I posted sometime back...maybe it's visible now.....well it was , and so were the ol boys that rode it to the bottom , along with there moonshine still and case of shine, ....looks like they probably had some help getting there by the evidence of bullet holes in the car and guns*****tered around.
Picked up another old Tootsietoy that was in decent shape but missing the drivers head. Located a metal head that I drilled and made a stud for mounting. Found a little paint to match and added the car to my collection.
My phone won't let me log in on the HAMB ? So I can only post old pictures from my P.C. file. I hope they are either new, or so old you don't remember them! Lol
