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

Here is a picture of the car now after it has been sitting for about 6-7 years



and here is a picture of it when it was first built

Why was it sitting for 6-7 years?

[disabled modeler]

That is cool !

[rocsas2]

sat becouse it was hard to work on...plus money

[AzTom]

That should be a fun build. What scale is the model you are working on?

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...

[jbwelda]

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.

The most expensive thing I put in my car is gas in the tank!

Looking at the pics I assume the engine is history... Nice model though.

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.

Hey Jairus, that is a cool looking wagon.... Dillon, your model should come out pretty cool... good luck with it and be sure to show us pictures when it's done.
