Hello everybody, I was wondering what would be a good project to start with in Autodesk Fusion 360 to get into the world of designing model car/truck parts. This has always been an interest to me. As a student in a machining program at my local Community college, I was able to download the student/educational version of Fusion 360. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello everybody, I'm wanting to build the Revell/Monogram Dodge Ram VTS into a pro street with a 440 or hemi. I was wondering if there are any good chassis to work with or if I should try to build my own. I've never built a chassis before, so I wouldn't know where to start. However, I do have some styrene strip I can use. I've seen some info on chassis building on the forum, but I'm still a bit confused. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm thinking about building this Pinto similar to one of these pictures.

Hello everybody, this is my build of the 1977 Ford Pinto. I'm using the Coca Cola Pinto Popper kit. I'm thinking about building this as a road racing or rally car, but not 100 percent sure. Please feel free to leave comments, criticism, etc.

That's a nice looking Pontiac. Definitely something you don't see every day.

It looks like you have some amazing projects in line.

Very nice looking Hemi.

Right now I'm wondering what size tubing I would need for turbo plumbing. I also would like to know how to build an intercooler and turbo exhaust manifolds. I have a Dodge Ram VTS kit and would like to build a twin turbo 440 for it. I already have the turbos.

Hello everybody, I am still an amateur in the model building realm. Most of my builds are straight from the box with a little kit bashing occasionally. However I am wanting to become more advanced in my skills, especially for the types of builds I wish to complete. I was wondering what kinds of parts would be the easiest to learn to scratch build and the best types/sizes of styrene for these parts.

Thank you all for your input. I realized I have an engine from a Dodge van in my parts box I can use.

Hello everybody. I was wondering what would be a good source for a Dodge Magnum V8. I recently bought the Ram VTS kit, but I want to build it as a regular Ram 1500. I'm looking for a 318/360.

Hello everyone, I am wondering if there is a kit or conversion parts available for a 99-04 Mustang GT. I am thinking about buying one in 1:1 and thought it would be a good idea to build a model of how I would want the real one to be. I know they make the 99 SVT Cobra, but they are hard to find in my area, not to mention out of my price range. Also, the Cobra has the 4.6 DOHC instead of the SOHC.

Here is the kit I am working with. I don't have any more progress pics, but I finished the interior and was able to mount it to the chassis. I was having trouble getting the body to fit, so I decided to take a break from this kit for a bit.

Here is where I am at currently with the Supra. I have the chassis pretty much done, just need to assemble the wheels and get them on. The interior is almost done with the exception of a nitrous oxide tank. I put the front and rear bumpers on the body, as well as the glass.

Making some progress on this build.
