    Very Kool, I like the looks of this. Do you have pix of the 1/25 scale printed version?

    Small progress report, I continue to shape and smooth things up …

    My mind went directly there....

    It’s been real hot and humid here, no chance of painting anything. Thankfully the basement is cool and dry. So I’ll wait on the Bronco and work on the wagon. Shaving, smoothing and shaping. Now that the roof is good I’ll move onto the rest of the body.

    Thanks, I'm happy with the way the chop turned out so far. I need to continue smoothing the seams and then, weather permitting, shoot some primer. I do see some faded lace in the roof's future!

    I tried this Tamiya Putty and find it much better than Squadron or Automotive Spot Putty. It’s easier to apply and sands so much nicer than anything I’ve used before. Body work is going well, priming up next.

    Body work on the roof continues and I added a full length package shelf. I wanted to keep the original alignment pins for the chassis.

    Right out of the 90's, great looking Street Rod. And my favorite Boyd color too!

    The finished model is under glass, the bike comes with the new 29 pick up.

    Some filler and a quick mock up, added some pins to help hold things in place. I will not be shortening this, it’s called a long roof for a reason!

    Working on the interior some…

    That's a lot of expensive hardware setting out in the rain. Beautiful cars though, thanks for sharing...

    Inspiration: I saw a 64 wagon converted to a two door and thought this would be an interesting twist. Donor kits starting with an AMT 64 Impala SS and a 65 Chevelle Wagon. I first cut the long roof off and after several test fits I then removed the Impala roof to graft the two pieces together.

    Sunday rainy Sunday, some little bits and details. Seats, belts, brake master cylinder and new hood supports. I guess the color is obvious.
  17. James2
    Working on hood supports and chassis assembly. I’ll need to use brass rod for the support the styrene gives to much. Chassis detail to follow….

    Interested in your thoughts on Splash Paints. I have been using them myself lately.
  19. James2
    Nice looking Stang! Did you clear coat? Splash?

    Last time the site updated I had to change my email address to gain access, but I was able to keep my profile. Glad you found your way back though!

    32 Street Rod

    James2 replied to XYHARRY's topic in Model Cars

    That is fine looking 32 Ford right there.....
  23. James2
    Making progress, engine is 90%, chassis is ready for detail and re- doing the exhaust is ongoing. Blessed Memorial Day to all who have lost someone….

    Thanks guys! It was the brush. Being the older brother I can relate to the "don't touch it" comment, never owned a pan but I do have a Shovelhead in the garage. You can't beat old iron.
  25. James2
    I love it, the chassis and drive train look as good as the exhaust!
