BIGTRUCK Posted May 31 Is it a car or a showrod is it a truck now? Not sure where to put it so here is a safe bet. Cobbled a better interior with a little more detail and opened the cowl vent. Waiting on some sitting figures to come in . Those will need a lot of work to look close to the characters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iBorg Posted May 31 Just those two pictures tell me I want to watch this one. I'd love better interior pictures. Already it looks more "right" than 95% of the builds of this kit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m going off a picture from the show and my bad memory 😊 This is the picture Edited June 1 by BIGTRUCK Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blunc Posted June 1 (edited) hmm, never noticed before that the driver-side front fender looks like a sheet metal replacement. a little photo research shows that a partial fender replacement had happened, it just wasn't an original fender that was grafted on.

bisc63 Posted June 4 (edited) I loved it when Jethro tried to modify it into a "double-nought spy car" ala James Bond. I think he used a galvanized wash tub turned upside down for a bullet-proof cockpit cover, with a peep hole cut for forward visibility. Beautiful.

gtx6970 Posted June 6 Nice start so far. I was a big fan of the show back then ( as was most any young boy ) and have given some serious thoughts to seek out one of these kits from time to time. BUT, ive never done weathered build like this ,,,,,so I think maybe not Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
