rocsas2 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I started building this model about a year ago but put it up after complications with the paint but i am now going to build it again becouse my uncle is building the real version again......it will be a replica of my cousins car that he built before he died and now my uncle is rebuilding the car now so i want to build this for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AzTom Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 That should be a fun build. What scale is the model you are working on? AzTom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jairus Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I don't understand a car that simple being hard to work on?!?!!? Just don't get it. Mine is so simple I can work on it with an adjustable wrench'n a flat screwdriver... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbwelda Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 he also added "also money"...possibly the key factor. it typically is around my dreams too. kool old car and thats whats nice about models: a WHOLE lot easier to work on and you dont get greasy either.

Jairus Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 The most expensive thing I put in my car is gas in the tank! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gray07 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Sorry about your cousin, i understand how its hard to work on a vehicle after the person that owns it dies, it was hard for me to drive my dads truck after he passed. But iam glad its getting rebuilt and your model wagon is going to be cool, keep the updates coming. Would love to see a picture of both of them done.

Dillon, your model should come out pretty cool... good luck with it and be sure to show us pictures when it's done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
