John Teresi Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Hello........this is on the workbench.........I will make a 1/12 Scale Custom "Day Cruiser" Boat.........when I first came across these boat pics on the web.......I thought I would build something like them but,put my own twist on it......here are a few pics that I have for reference.........my good friend Paul Cadwell AKA "2 Whl" sold me a 1/2 Scale 67 Corvette complete and a parts box..........so I have plenty of parts to build a boat and a Pro Mod.............I bought a Barbie Boat at a thrift store to use for the hull............thanks for looking.

Ju Ju Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 This is a very creative idea ! sold me a 1/2 Scale 67 Corvette split window complete and a parts box. How many years did they make Split Window Corvettes ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ju Ju Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 sold me a 1/2 Scale 67 Corvette split window complete Then I started thinking about it more, if that kit is 1/2 scale it has to be huge ? You should be able to ride in your model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
