MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. My wife is a huge Tennessee Vols fan-football and basketball. We drive down from Cincinnati to Knoxville and attend 2-3 games a year. And were a huge fan of Smokey too! She's a NASCAR fan to a lesser extent. I've got to build one of these for her! Can you please tell me Steve, what kit did you use to build this? And the color you used looks spot-on for Vols orange. Nice job!
  2. Wow that is fantastic Shawn! And even more so this being your first time at weathering and creating a diorama! I have yet to do either one but someday I hope to try it. Great job! Love the beat up wheel covers on the fence and the milk crates too!
  3. Looks great Dan! I I really like the engine bay details. I built this kit a while back, pretty much box stock, and painted it green with white rally stripes. Your selection of yellow looks good.
  4. I like it! Looks great with the whitewalls!
  5. According to the manufacturer it is 1:10 scale.
  6. My mother in law got this for me for Christmas 15 months ago. Made from 739 pieces of .150” thick laminated wood pieces. It’s 13.8” long and has opening doors, windows roll up and down, opening hood and trunk with latches, wipers operate with a knob, working front and rear suspension, operating forward and reverse gears, steerable front wheels, and tiltable seat backs. Wind it up with the mechanism in the trunk and it will go forward or in reverse depending on the position of the column mounted shift lever. The pistons in the V-8 move up and down when it’s moving. Comes with a tool kit and operating jack. Not something I would normally build, but it was a different type of challenge.
  7. That is a beautiful color landman. Can I ask what it is?
  8. 😄. My beagle would chew up all my work too if I didn't push it far enough back on the bench so he couldn't get to it! He sometimes lays on the floor next to me when I'm building, just waiting for something to fall.
  9. Thank you everyone! I went back and saw your Trick Trike....awesome! That color does pop in the sun for sure. That tonneou cover did come with the kit. My brother saw pics of the model with the cover on it and he thought that I made it out of some actual fabric! I must say it does have the right fabric "texture" molded in.
  10. I agree with Sledsel, that’s one your best!
  11. Wow, that is beautiful! Love that interior, never seen anything like that!
  12. Thanks nc buckeye! The kit comes with white and dark blue stripes.
