added that pc of styrene to flush up the rear with the back of the dually fenders that actually works well will get pic asap doing some filler and sanding as well

thats cool! altho I will admit my first thought was oh no someone dropped their part in the sand outside whilst the paint was still wet!!

I did not know that...... Bet will smith had a blast! driving that machine

other option mite be to "clip" off the very back very small section hanging off the back, and simply putty, or add a small pc. of styrene and blend the fender lines to match the back edge of the van and the lines..... Hmmmm naw ya'll got me thinking again here we Gooooooo

the fenders do slightly hang over in the back i'm going to somehow incorporate some sort of styrene panel to "blend" the fenders together and into the van and smoothe things together debating custom rear tail lamps or not....... it is after all a "custom" van I decided via help of the ford forums community that the van will have a slight lift not too much, tho

Sure will Benny Tom I will search around and see if theres a pic of before i started with these 2 ruffigan vans, most folks woulda tossed up hands and been in the wanted section looking for van bodies these gluebombs were that bad i lost cound of how many layers of paint there were i've used 3 different methods and that all i could get down to, tried purple power, tried bleach white, and brake fluid to no dismay this is all the farther i go on stripping after the putty goes on and gets smoothed and sanded i'll be throwing down the primer and see how bad it looks..... as long as its barely noticeable i'mm rolling with it, i'm just going for my satisfaction i'm not a complete perfectionist

thanks everyone debated on doing tire wear especially on the big tires of the rear, but they looked too nice to wear down

wow anything i build in white usually looks like cream color after that many years with cracks in it! the model is a beauty standing the test of time

I honestly thougt it was real at first glance very cool model!!

this ones a beauty! I am cringing at myself as i'm a Ford man its got chevy power, "corvette" valve covers

The Dually vam is going to be root beer brown, going to have swing out side doors instead of traditional slider door on the mpc 1/25 vans, swing doors are constructed from the front doors of a 3rd scrap van body, the fender flares for dualy conversion are from a 56 ford flareside p/u box from the parts bin the passenger side had to have a notch made into it to allow door to open, 2nd glue bomb van now in primer (still needs body work) will be the orange color laquer, and will have the keep on truckin van murals on its sides i opened the passenger front door and slider door on the 2nd van all comments welcome will update as often as i can with progression

impressive work

what are the sidepipes made of?? very cool 05 s 197 body would be rather suiting for a modern interceptor

very nice those wheels look at home on a stang love the stance, that is some tedious BMF work on the interior...... Great job show us some more!!

had the Datsun traded it here on mcm lol

so you can spray over the embossing to achive different color of choice?

neato!

one Lewd Mopar by lewd I mean Nasty, not in a bad way Nasty Good way like it will stomp anything in its path, or that pulls up beside it! Great work mate!

They are still reletively easy to get never paid over 25$ for one on flea bay the 25$ one was sealed too (still is)

wow very useful movie infor I did not know...... the more you know the better I love both movies American Graffiti and Two Lane Blacktop there really is not point to Two lane except i guess to win the pink slip of warren Oats Shiney new GTO someone out there really should pick up at the end of that flick, and make some kind of flick to continue T L B there really was no plot no beginning no end, it could be feasable to make a sequel? maybe i'm thinking too much Its wishful thinking

very sharp i always love a modern motor in a ol school rod

can i trade a couple foxbodys for a couple of that early 70's era?

no wonder I have none of that era lol eh its only 24 so far...... the 71-73'S are whats missing in my stang collection
