Ira Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 I've got a similar project in the works, only I didn't shorten the cab area and the front end is removed completely. I'll be tagging along for sure! Sounds a little like a shortened Lil' Red Wagon! Will it have an engine in the rear? Any photos yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qwit Pushin Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Ira, I love this. You are possessed of a rare styrene genius! Keep it going. I've got the pop corn popping! Couldn't agree more. This is like watching a great movie, where you're riveted to the screen waiting to see what's gonna happen next. Don't forget the butter, Doc'.

Ira Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 Another good one, Ira. You are a regular Dr. Frankenshtein! Can't wait to see more. Thanks Dr.! Thinking about Weathering this one, may make it a Dirty Off-Road Truck.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartster Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Far be it for a mere mortal to give you advice, but since you asked...I like the weathered Baja 500 idea. I'd like to see you "muddy" something up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RancheroSteve Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I'm loving this - you have my blessing! Also, I realize this isn't a factory stock build (haha), but if you don't mind a little "rivet counting" from me: I recommend sanding that lip at the rear of the cab roof flush. All the AMT Rancheros have it, but it ain't right and as the owner of a 1/1, it sticks out like a sore thumb to my eyes. Take a look at a photo of the real thing and you'll soon see what I'm talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 As a major Falcon nut, I'm I'm all the way on this one.

Ira Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 That's insane - in a good way! Really creative design. When I saw your fifth photo, I was thinking fill in the wheel wells like an old Nash, but your idea looks cool! Sam Thanks for the kind words Sam, Glad you like it!
