Assembly of AMT Detroit 8V questions
DrKerry replied to Goodwrench3's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I usually cut the pin off the blower and add a piece of tubing to bring it out farther and look one piece. You have it together right! -
Lol, I thought of putting the top half of a diesel with a turbo on it above the cover and having dual large diameter exhaust pipes out the back! Put a Detroit 8V with a blower and twin turbos poking up through!? Use just the top half of the engine or maybe have the back half detailed with engine showing!? Who knows!? At first I wanted to build just a quick build but looking at it I almost want to add more detail. Maybe not an interior but an engine bay of some sort!?

Well....... LOL, shy look on my face,,,,, I wasn't going to put an engine in it Per Se.... It's being built as a slammer.... I am thinking of cutting out the tonneau area and having something up through it to look like it has a power plant. I thought at first of putting a blower through it with the exhaust out the back. Then I thought of just putting a aerodynamic scoop back there and that's it... The issue is there isn't much height to it and to put a full on engine in it it'll be valve covers up poking out... She's that low and lean..... Just got done with the third, er, maybe fourth round of fill, sand repeat!!! Hoping to sand what I just put on the nose and shoot some primer on to see where I am at this point...

BJ and the Bear 1/25

Make sure it’s only one beer! Two could make things messier yet!! Lol You’re giving me the itch to start mine!! -
From what I’ve heard all Bandit trucks and trailers were lost in a fire at the recording studios not long after the movies were out. It is Paul Sagehorn that now owns the BJ truck and trailer and has owned the Movin’ On truck. If you’ve watched the cable show where they restored the BJ truck and are doing the road shots of the Bear truck on the road. Those clips are shot through the windshield of the Movin’ On truck!!
