  1. No, these 2 cars are the best. I like them very much. The Audi would still appeal to me, but I haven't found a model of it yet.
  2. Thank you very much. I'm glad I was able to help you build your short bed. Feel free to leave the picture here.
  3. The display case arrived today. There's now room for both vehicles and the master. I think it fits really well on the shelf.
  4. Yes, the trailer hitch is actually fitted to this car. This was specifically requested by Ken Block.
  5. Hello, the time has come. The Hoonitruck is finished after 3 months of construction. Here are the pictures. Now I need a new project. Unfortunately I have no idea what else I could do.
  6. Hi, I use both. White and clear. The paint pattern is printed on clear decal paper in lighter gray. The sponsors are printed on white decal paper with a black border.
  7. First of all, many thanks to you all. I make the decals with Corel Draw. I search the web for good images and then have them converted into detailed logos. Then they are post-processed and printed on decal paper. I use a laser printer for this. However, some people say that they should be better with an inkjet printer.
  8. I had forgotten that the front blinker, headlight and rear light lenses are castings from the original kit. But all the lenses are molded on, so there were no clear parts. I simply ran clear UV resin from my printer over them and hardened them. Carefully removed and then painted with Tamiya clear paints.
  9. Hello everyone, The parts are slowly coming together. I think it already looks pretty good.
  10. Here's the current status today. I glued the headlights into the grille. Then put the rear together and made a trial fit. The rear section and the spoiler are only loosely attached.
  11. Hello everyone, I have changed the engine again, this one is now completely new and 3D printed. The other engine from the Ford GT was simply too big. This kit is 1:24 and the Hoonitruck is 1:25. The rear window is also included. I have now installed the tank filler neck. And the wheels are also ready.
  12. Today was the partial wedding. The body with the interior was put on the chassis. The engine was put in. Nothing is glued yet. Let's start with the hood. And now a question: As already mentioned, the 2 struts from the rear frame then go through the rear window to the cage. How can I measure this correctly so that these holes in the windshield are positioned correctly afterwards? They have to be slotted holes, as the struts go through at an angle. I'm looking forward to your solutions, because sometimes you think it's far too complicated, even though it's easy to solve. Here is another picture. The struts are not yet glued to the cage, as the windshield has to go between them first.
  13. Hello everyone. Today I continued with the little things. First I made the rear parts from the inside with AK True Metal Aluminum. Then I added the lettering to the spoiler. The windows also got decals. The rear window was cut from a new piece of packaging. This is screwed on from the outside and later gets the holes where the rear struts go through to the cage. This was also tried out. The clear piece of the tank filler neck got its clamps. And here I have highlighted the screws. Finally, I made the brakes. The small red part is the fuel filler cap. This also gets a decal. Well, it was just a few little things, but they do hold up.
  14. I didn't really like the spoiler, so I redid it. This time I used True Metal from AK. A comparison with the first spoiler. I also reworked the tank filler neck, as it has a transparent piece. This was made from a piece of cast iron, which was drilled through and hollowed out with a milling cutter. Small things also made here.
