MCM Regular

MCM Regular (3/6)

  1. My 1/20 scale ranger has been modified out of an s10. I added sheet styrene to the upper body lines to give the more ranger type styling. Just shaved the tails last weekend. Built the grille and hood. Added an explorer bumper.. s10 frame with backhalf built from parts trees that I didn't modify to get the look. Explorer v6 wired and ready to be plumbed..
  2. I'll jump in with my squarebody 1/20 ranger build.
  3. You could do one better by cutting the rim itself in half and use the rear part as the front lip. I do that quite often and the tire fits even after modifying it. Look good otherwise
  4. I've owned the xpr400, 300, cordless and bought the 4000 last year. Also have the wand and the workhorse drill press that works with everyone of the dremels! That works awesome for anyone that wants to drill holes w/o using a professional one. Also have the multimax, and possibly the new saw type version they just came out with. There's not one dremel I wouldn't not use. That's why I have 3 in my shop at all time in different workstations so when ya need one, its in hands reach.
  5. Not yet. I have a 1/22 scale s10 diecast I could probably cut down and redo to work. Another guy in my club was supposed to give it a try since I did his 1/20 version
  6. For the deadline grim, I knew it wouldn't make it to atlanta in one piece...ill still take it and show it for what it is..the decals are heading my way tomorrow so if I get em on the truck before the show is gonna be close.

  8. I haven't done too much with it, but have painted it, done interior in a tan color, waiting on my GPS, tv. & radio screens to get here for that to get done. Amp is wired in, brake lines on all 4 corner. I do have the lights in and the clear lenses are painted a clear blue for a wilder look (unpictured). got one more month to get it all buttoned up and finished.
  9. Id say the build im doing is more newer styled than the newest last one they produced. Caddy escalade front, 2 bed to make 1, (lightning;ssr)
  10. Oh no problems here at all, and completely agree on the skill of the builder in general, I never had done something as technical as that before up to that point, it was a step up in my building game..and learned a few new way to do things engine wise.
  11. 99% of mine is all hand built. The only thing that isn't seen is the original block under all the extras I added.
  12. Yeappers I make the 1/20 98+ s10 front end. Comes as a 4 or 6 piece kit.
  13. I've built a cummins dodge diesel for a dodge dually. Used a 50 chevy inline 6 engine, cut everything off of it, and began adding to it. The engine I finished is a steam turbo diesel that was blueprinted/designed...I refered to cummins website to get pics of it..they aren't hard to build if ya got the pictures in front of ya
