MikeyB08 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) Hello to all! This is my first "showcase" model I will be posting on this forum. First and foremost, I cant thank everyone enough for all of the information that has taught me. Although this is not my first model, it is the first one I am proud of. So, without further ado, my 1934 Ford Pickup "Engine Hauler". The kit itself allows you to build the model 1 of 3 ways. I didn't like this. So I combined them. Enjoy!

rmvw guy Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I love the engine hauler idea, I may have to use that. The '34 is a kit to build over and over and I wouldn't limit it to just 3 ways. They look really good with a chopped top or fender-less. Nice job on your model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davewilly Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I like that little truck kit...I have 3 of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyB08 Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 Thanks for the compliments guys! Next challenge to practice on the getting rid of the "Orange Peel" (if that terms apply's to such a small scale) in the paint job. Being a 34' I thought it might be to much trouble to try and sand the fender curvature and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyB08 Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 Future work: So I am thinking of getting (maybe building) and trailer so that I can make it a combo model. Maybe put an older T-Bird on the trailer. Got to take it to the shop to install the new motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
