yellowsportwagon Posted January 7 Since I’m stupid or something I always have about 6 cars going at any time. I switch off between them. This one is a pretty simple build aside from rollbar and interior stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t know Dave I’ve been known as the undisputed king of unfinished projects. I’ve got models that have been half done for decades. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a 1/12 scale Roush IMSA Cougar that has been in the works since 1990. I spent 100's on AeroQuip fittings alone. Sorry to hijack.....I'll wait to see your finished Buck OLDS!

Like I said....I invested enough to buy a decent used real car!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yellowsportwagon Posted January 8 (edited) Ok so you did the same as I did with a Reventlow Scarab. I scratchbuilt a brass tube space frame modified the BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH out of a Strombecker Scarab body then got lost on making a DeDion tube rear suspension . So it sits 20 years later. At least it’s in the company of others in the same boat. Edited January 8 by yellowsportwagon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yellowsportwagon Posted February 14 Mark I’m not real wild about the fuel cell I made for this one. Hangs down too far. But I’m not about to try an rip it off of there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel your pain. I have done some things, really didn't like them, but realized nobody but the rivet counters would care, so I forged ahead. I'm sure nobody will notice when they see the final pictures. As long as the over all look is awesome, which this model will be, that's what's important.
