I don't have much experience modding except perhaps shaving and filling a litle. However, I did just think of what might be a great use for some of the left over sprue tree on the revell '49 mercury Special Edition. I am looking at the sprue tree that holds the driveshaft, front suspension and rear end and I notice that the outer edges look a lot like a step notch on an airbagged or juiced truck. So, I was wandering just how hard it would be to narrow this, glue it back together, cut off the extra, and sand it all smooth. I was thinking that, if it would work, I could use it to help me build a close replica of my 1:1 98 Chevy S10. I live almost 2 hours from my LHS so, I figured this would be a great way to recycle and make use of what I got. My question is, with a couple hours of effort put into it, does anyone think it would work?
