It´s cast in Sweden by Kent Gustavsson. Don´t know how active he is right now. He casted this pickup the 544 and 210.
Very complete kits, even a separate fanbelt was included.
Started with a resin kit wich is based on a Volvo 544 cut in half. Backdated it with a split windscreen and built a ribbed grille. in the 50´s Volvo offered a complete chassi with front fenders and cowl. There was both pick up´s and stationwagons and even a few convertibles built on those chassis.
Thanks for all positive comments. It´s really fun to build these oddballs as they seem to bring back memories for many peoples.
Airtrax kits are not complete kits and take some donorkits and some scratch building to make it complete.
On this I used an T3 bus engine wich isn´t factory correct but close enough for me. Suspension is built from modified AMT enginestands
and various evergreen strips.
Haven´t being around for a while but thought i could share one of my latest build. I have no idea if the 411 was ever sold in US.
This is an resin kit from Airtrax and mastered by Juha Airio completed whit parts from Revell VW camper and beetle kits.
This was a year of resin for me. I don´t have a clue hwo casted the 57 Mercury but I´m sure it´s not Modelhaus.
The Volvo is made by Airtrax and the Plymouth is my own copy from an AMT kit.
A 69 Charger is the only plastic kit I built this year. Not so many built this year but my bench is clean for 2014
Bs.Design in Germany does eurospec Kadett as sedan and coupe. Complete curbside kits with white metal parts.
Not the best resin kit I worked on, but there isn´t too many Opel kits available.
Having a builderblock de luxe for six months I´m back again. Thougt I had to build something for a modelmeet with 4 doors as a theme.
Found this
And two weeks later it looked like this
Not the most common lowrider subject, and thats why I like it
This is an Volvo L3314 Laplander, in sweden more knowed by it´s nickname puppy.
And yes it´s all scratch built except for wheels and axles. There is a resin kit available
but it´s in 1/72 scale,and doesn´t fit on my shelf
This could easily motivate ME to start a sierra tan 1965 malibu 300 project.
As a replica of a friend car that has been under "restoration" for 30 years.
