MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. TY for the very kind words. I almost gave up on this one, as I intended to have it completed for the final GSL. I did get the fuel lines installed after the pics...too quick top pull it off the bench, DOH
  2. Thanks Alan, The rims are resin from either VSG Resins, or Iceman Collections as I have bought from very few others over time. I apologize that I do not recall the exact source as I usually put things in my parts/wheels bins without the labels. I did just check both sites, and while Iceman does have a version of artillery wheels currently, they are not the same and they do have center caps, where I had to pull these from the parts bin. I think Iceman's current version is great, and very reasonably priced.
  3. "hiding it"....Why? That makes no sense to me. Also, does anyone have a link to all the other show rods that collection has? There is a lot there that I am more intested in seeing more of.
  4. Thanks for the kind words and the heads-up on the link, I will edit it.
  5. Thank you for the kind words! There is a lot I wish I had done better, but overall I am please with it.
  6. Finally finished mine just this past Friday night. I started with the Revell '29 Ford (2015 issue) and combined various kit bashing, parts box, PE, resin, 3D print etc. For those so inclined, here is the link to the build folder. https://public.fotki.com/machman/in_progress_model_cars/29-ford-trog/ Bolide Plastics (Now VCG Resins) motor with Jiggler heads Roth Outlaw Transmission R&M Dipstick, Resin bomber seat with 3D printed seat cushion Skirts cut/modified from AMT body Frame modified from Revell '29 Ford pickup kit with modified crossmember and transmission mounts, relocated friction shock mounting points etc. Front springs cut/lowered with modified hairpins Narrowed rear axle from Roth Outlaw mated to parts box differential Rear Springs lowered/modified and "taped" per old racer pics (not seen in these pics, but visible in build folder) Scratched the rear inner wheel arches PE Radiator (using the Mark Batson instructions) Cut open the grill and install mesh screen Aluminum rod rollbar VCG Resins Tiki head shift knob various PE, Mastercraft resin nut/bolt heads throughout, wired/plumbed etc.
  7. Great looking progress Ulf. Have you looked at using Ulrich Minimen to create your driver?
  8. Trying to locate a '70 JoHan Olds Tornado front bumper. I bought a kit off Ebay and found that the front bumper was short shot.
  9. Yes, I will still finish up the one I am working on, and would certainly build another for next year
