Figured I would kick it off this week. I am getting dangerously close to finishing the 32 coupe and 61 F-85. As soon as I can get into town for some more paint and BMF they will be done. Here is a group mock-up since they will displayed together. Now I just need to get going on the trailer for the 32.
RAF, sweet gassers I like that Fleetline a lot! Badass! Here are some finished and unfinished works. I can't remember what I have posted here before, it's been awhile.
This one started as a part of my trophy for our car show, but I got a little bit too attached. I love the original so much.....I'd give my left nut for that car.
awbcrazy -great collection of plastic, the detail and craftsmanship are first class. I always loved the Blue Beetle to bad they don't re-release it.
The barn find Lincoln thread earlier this week inspired me to finish this one. Bob, second that on the Blue Beetle! Later, Pscott
With all of the Bonneville photos that we've seen over the last few weeks I thought I'd post this. I built this '37 Chevy probably 25 years ago from the AMT kit. Engine is a blown small block Chevy.
Thanks guys for your compliments! The Blue Beetle is a clone of an original kit. I did some parts hunting and box art scavenging to replicate it. that '37 Chevy is pretty cool! I have the "salt shaker" issue of that kit. The Lincoln is nicely done too!
Beautiful models! Very inspirational. I can't wait for winter now... Gotta' finish my AMT '55 kit of my real car.
damn that '55 is badass! you guys who want to see more cool models should check here! www.thedpmcc.com/trak.html
here's one I started, put away, got it out and finally finished it. I had so much fun rusting it that I couldn't sand it off and put a proper finish on it.
here are more pics of Blue Beetle for those who liked it. It was built from the yellow and tan molded kit from the 90s and backdated to 1960's issue with some select parts and paints.
How about Von Franco's Ace's and Eights 32? Sorry for the fuzzy photo, taken through the display case. But ya get the idea....
