FASTBACK340 Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Currently I'm without a dedicated work area. My wife & I live in a 1 bedroom Co-Op (apartment...) while I'm selling a 3 bedroom house, that included my hobby room. Hopefully I'll have "my room" back in a year or so when we buy another house. But for now I must pick small projects to fit my cramped enviroment. This is a simple project where I tried to replicate my actual `68 Barracuda. A Johnny Lightning was stripped and painted with Model Car World LL1 turquoise. I bare metaled the trim & bumpers, and swapped in a 6 pack engine from a Challenger T/A. I'm still looking for a set of dog dish hub caps. My car has more blue in it, but it's close enuff! My car is a 360 with a 6 pack & 4 spd. I should have scratch-built a bench seat like my car, but again, I can only do small projects. I have to pack everything up when I finish a session, and you all know how much THAT sucks.... Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Hey John.............Nice 'Cuda! At first glance I thought that was the MPC 1/25 scale '69! Yes, I know how it feels to be in a "temp" environment! Just got word yesterday from my property manager that I have to move in 60 days because the owners of the house want to move back in! So yes, I'm house hunting too...............but no more renting if I can help it------the next place I intend to buy! This puts a crimp in my modeling as now I now won't have much time to finish that Buick......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
