  2. Ford Friction Shock question

    Russell C replied to CabDriver's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers

    One of my assortment of somewhat in-progress projects is a Revell '31 Ford, and I had no idea that those levers were on the frame, but I ended up figuring them out via searching the words "Houdaille shock absorbers" in the various street rod websites. Here's just one photo among many I bookmarked as a reference to how these can work:

  19. Nice custom truck. Cool stance and wheel/tire combo.

  20. '68 Chevelle SS 396

    tmb727 replied to Plowboy's topic in Under Glass

    All of your choices - colors, engine, wheels - come together beautifully. Really nice work.
  21. I make a lot of small suspension parts like spindles, etc. Scratch-built parts made from styrene are generally stronger if assembled with a liquid solvent-type cement. Use enough to get a good bond, and let it dry well. When thoroughly dry, the joins can be reinforced with small fillets of a gel CA. The fillets can be sanded smooth with a nice inside radius. Be careful painting things assembled with CA. One solvent in some paint, acetone, will break down CA joints, and your assemblies may fall apart.
  22. Cool Suburban. Nice work in the interior.
  23. Those 4 3/8” tires look pretty good. I may order some. Thanks

  24. 1960 AMT Bonneville interior tub

    StevenGuthmiller replied to hedotwo's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers

    Or you could save yourself a boat load of time and effort in this circumstance and use the entire interior from the Trumpeter '60 Bonneville kit! Seriously, I think in this circumstance, I would widen the rear seat by adding to the ends. I don't believe that it would require enough added material to make it look odd. Splitting the seat down the center and adding material there would require a bit more thought. You have the speaker grille to deal with in that case. Steve

  25. Chopped & Channeled 1932 Ford Sedan Hot Rod UPDATE 9/3/17

    Dennis Lacy replied to Dennis Lacy's topic in On The Workbench

    Started sticking this one together today. The chassis is essentially finished and the engine is assembled except for the carbs and distributor/wires. I also started on the floor and related parts. Had to set the engine in and the body on for a look. Another afternoon at the bench should get it done. Stay tuned!
