highway Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Thanks, Jeff Thanks, Matthew. I am thinking about building a 1/12 scale all aluminum B29, which would require drinking a LOT of beer, just for the aluminum, of course. I will let you know! I'll be there!!

Kit Basher Posted August 5, 2011 Author Share Posted August 5, 2011 (edited) Thanks gray07 and Robert. I'm finally finished under the hood. Had to make the air intake and the radiator filler and cap. The passenger side fender looked a little naked so I made a jack to go there. I hope to finish this puppy up soon! Advice and comments always welcome nuff for now, more later.

4bangen Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 looks great, I used to have an 87 F-150 2wd, I started a build of it a long time ago, I think this one has inspired me to pull it back out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kit Basher Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Thanks, Matt. I'd love to see that '87. I hope it works out for ya. I'm gettin' really close on this one, I hope to have it done soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kit Basher Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 No tape or CD player, so it definitely needs a radio antenna. Passed inspection and the taxes are paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kit Basher Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 Still no F150 badges, but I want to try to "foil cast" those, so I will need to find another cab with good badges (any suggestions would be welcome). Who knows when that will happen, so I'm calling it done for now, and putting it Under Glass: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=47315 I could not have done this without the generous advice and answers to questions from the folks on this forum. So thanks to all who helped, whether they knew it or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Looks nice Hugh from what I can see! Now I gotta go check it out under glass. I could send you an AMT cab to foil cast the emblems from for a small decal favor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
