cobraman Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Thats going to be a cool set when it's done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBcritter Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Thanks for getting into this kit - I've always wondered if it was based on an actual boat; looks like it will need some big changes to represent the real thing (and I'll probably do the wood with paint on the deck and paint the hull white anyway). About the engine: Is that a Chrysler flathead 6, and if so could the 1941 Plymouth engine be used for more detail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonFL Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 That already looks like a cool kit but you just take em' to another level. Love how your doing all that wood work. Any chance we can get a photo of all the boats? Or if there are other build pages just point me in the right direction. Awesome build, can't wait to see it on the trailer behind the car.

Even with orginalengine it's VERY tight in the motorcompartment. Torgny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nts Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 This is the first boat , in mahoganyveneer and two Cadillac engines. The trailer with real wood inlays and the car built from a resinbody. I cut out the sides and replace it with mahoganywood. Some pictures of how it's made ............
