MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. I've haven't been building for quite some time but recently jumped into the Big Rig Build. I would love to jump in on this group build as well, if it is still possible. Doing a little plastic surgery has been on my mind lately, so I would like to build a 1961 Ranchero upgraded to todays standards with a 2013 Mustang suspension and the 5.0 from the kit. I'll also blend in the bucket seats and upgrade the interior. Starting shots attached below.
  2. Thanks Lee! I have been doing quite a bit more research on the General from the show. It appears the engine in the truck is actually a Cummins. I'm not sure exactly which engine it is, but as far as I can tell from my research it must be a NTC- 350. Would anyone be able to confirm this?
  3. I managed to get a little more work done today. Painted the engine, I struggled with the color to paint it but finally settled on a cobalt green which was as close as I could find to alpine green. I think that is the color of the Detroit Diesel color. I'll be dirtying it up and spaying some flat clear on it to make it look a little more used. I then got a little more work done on the frame and started on the front suspension. Then started to prep the body and assembled the sleeper. Thanks for looking!
  4. It's been quite awhile since I have sat down and done some modelling. I recently picked up the AMT GMC General kit and some decals to replicate the GMC General from Knight Rider. I have found some photos online of the truck but not many, so I'll do the best I can to make a reasonable likeness of the truck. Having today off, I started on the kit assembling and painting the engine and frame of the truck.
  5. I would really like to join in the BRBO if it is still possible. I have recently acquired a GMC General kit and some decals for the Knight Rider Rig and Trailer.
  6. Nice clean work on the chassis Bill. I'll be following along with your build. I have 5 of these sitting just waiting to be built.
  7. Great model of a great car! Turned out awesome! Rob
  8. Nice work. The paint is like glass!
  9. Very nice Michelle, the paint looks great!
  10. I really like the colors you chose to use. Nice details all around.
