That's a great color combo! Nice work!

I made this by molding the front clip off a Revell Escalade to a Revell Waverider Silverado.

Thanks. The paint is Rustoleum harbor blue.

Thanks. I just used a black sharpie around the edge of the windshield.

I built this as a replica of the Thunderbird from the movie La Jamba. I built it mostly box stock from an older issue of the Revell kit (not the La Bamba kit). I modified the door trim to make it look more like a '59 and made my own plates.

That's way cool!

This is a rebuilder I got from a friend. The chrome on the front bumper was in bad shape and the rear bumper was broken, it didn't have any glass or tail lights. It was also missing the engine and the wheels and tires. I was lucky and found nos chrome bumpers on eBay. I had a windshield in my spares box that fit and I made the rear window from an old food container. I made the tail lights from putty, I smoothed them out, foiled them and colored them with a red sharpie. It's got wheels /tires and plates from my spares box. I didn't feel confident enough in my masking abilities to paint the center grill bar and I didn't want to ruin my new bumper.

I built this box stock from the Monogram kit. It was a pretty decent kit for being almost as old as I am.

Thanks. I used this kit. I think they're the same tooling though.

Thanks. Sorry, no wip pics.

I built this from an AMT kit. It has a Trailertrash Kustoms suspension that I modified to get a little more lift. The wheels are 26" from an Uptown Escalade and the tires are 40" from a Tumble Batmobile.

I built this using a Jimmy Flintstone body and parts from an AMT '58 Edsel and a Revell '57 Ford wagon. I lowered the suspension and used 4 rear wheels and tires from a Foose Caddy. My mom said her dad had a red and white one when she was a kid in Oregon, so I painted it to match and added some Oregon plates from my parts box.

That's a cool idea, I'm looking forward to seeing your progress.

I built this from the Revell VW 60's Beetle kit. I've had this kit for a while, but wasn't sure how I wanted to build it until I got the wide 5 wheels that came as a bonus in a VW bus kit I bought. I sanded off the little fender flares, lowered it and used some aluminum tubing for the exhaust tips. This was not an easy kit to build, but I'm happy with how it turned out.

Nice build! That's a great color.

I started this Mini hearse about 15 years ago. I can't remember why I put it back in the box, it was almost done. I combined 2 Mini Cooper kits, lowered the suspension a bit and used wheels and tires from a Honda Civic. It has a coffin table, so it really could carry a casket. I lost a door handle somewhere along the way, hopefully I can find a suitable replacement. I'm happy to say that my paint and body work skills have vastly improved since then.

That's a different body, it looks like a '76. That's disappointing. Was it sealed when you got it?

I love Cadillacs! I'm excited to see this one progress.

Nice build! I really like that color combo.

I thought it would be fun to make this old Johan kit into a hotrod. It has the independent front suspension from an AMT '32 Ford Phantom Vickie, the independent rear suspension from an AMT '34 Ford, the wheels and rear tires are from a Revell Escalade, the front tires and spare wheels are from a Revell Monte Carlo SS. I tubbed the rear fenders for wheel clearance and grabbed a plate from my spares box.

Thanks. On the roof I used Duplicolor black hot rod primer. I painted it to match my '96 Fleetwood.

I built this from the Testors kit. When I got it, it was a partiality built glue bomb. The exhaust manifolds were glued on backwards and the exhaust pipes were glued to the rear axle. The rear axle had broken at some point and was glued back together crooked. They used so much glue that I wasn't able to salvage any of those parts, so this kit is now a curb side. The windshield frame was broken off and in 4 pieces, so I made a new one out of square stock. The kit hubcaps seemed way to small so I used caps from a Revell '50 Ford F-1. I only had 4 so I used the kit caps on the spares. Despite all the trouble, I think it turned out pretty well.

Nice job so far, I built one a few years back, I'm interested to see yours when it's done.

Great job! I'd drive it.

Is that the Texas Chainsaw Massacre die cast? The mods you made look great!
