RAT-T Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 VERY COOL PETE, I'VE SEEN THOSE BUMBER CARS @ THE CP SHOW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasser59 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Those N scale vehicles are cool. Small stuff. I made a completely scratch-built Jeep pedal car from strene sheet. The wheel covers are '40 Ford hubcaps and the steering wheel is a metal gear from a watch with the gears sanded off. I drew up my own decals for it too.

cheyenne93 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Here is the Dodge dumper I built in 2019. Box is all scratch built, tool boxes and running boards all 4 shocks and front bumper. Frame was lengthened using styrene tubing. Base was a glue bomb little red express. I am also still working on the scratch built camper and 66 suburban. Had a blast building this one. Also currently workin on a 90s F250 lifted 4x4 bug out vehicle with a 7.3 powerstroke and scratch building a camper body for that. Will be posting some pics of that soon I hope.

Tom Geiger Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Since folks are showing truck bodies.. I scratch built that passenger jitney body on my 1950 Ford pickup. The side panels were cut from. Tom Daniel Paddy Wagon, and the rest of the body is all from Evergreen sheet. The roof was made from basswood, and the shingles were cut into squares and applied randomly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The originals real items are very rare now with only about 12 known to exist. You build is an obvious nod to cancer survivors which ii great thing to do. My wife of 56 years is a two time 20+ year breast cancer survivor so I personally know how that can turn your live upside down. Thanks for sharing.

Fast-Eddieukk Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Since posting my initial pictures, i have spent most this year working on rebuilding the rear of the real car as pictured. I have done some on the model though and am reaching the stage when i might try to cast a resin copy. I also dabbled with 3D printing some wheel center's for one of my other projects Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
