geetee66 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Just finished this Monte. I swapped out the rear axle for something with better detail, scratch built coils and hydraulic struts and made a 4-link suspension setup. Rides on Pegasus wheels and painted with automotive paint and nail polish. Flocked carpet with matching headlining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geetee66 Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 Funny how I carefully paint things that cannot be seen after final construction! The serpentine belt and pulleys came out really nice, but I didn't remember to photograph it. Here's the engine bay though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbowser Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I think they are ridiculous as vehicles but that is an outstanding model! Great paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Very elaborate paint work. Watching your build and seeing the paint work evolve and then the finished work it was still hard to imagine just how it would look. In addition to the paint work the entire build is cleanly done thru out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Hand Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Excellent build Guy. Rear suspension set up turned out great and looks the part. Simple clean interior goes well with the paint. Paint job is killa, lots of hours of taping and patience there. Cant wait to see your next Lowrider build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plowboy Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Excellent paint work! I can't imagine the amount of time (not to mention skill) it must have taken to accomplish that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Yeah, they're totally nuts, but I really admire the creativity, finish and mechanics of them. I've only seen them on YouTube and they make me chuckle when they bounce them, especially gas hopping and 3-wheeling. Crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
