Sam I Am

Following this one as well.

Following this one Bill. Anything in particular planned for the race car, or one you already have?

I plan on following every squirrel that crosses my path.

Before I read your thoughts on the matter, swoopy body lines is exactly what I thought. This looks beautiful, flows so well, and oh so Oldsmobile. By removing the Oldsmobile curve from the quarter panel, it makes it look more like all you did was bolt the front clip and moldings onto an Elcamino body.

Great trades with landman, Little Timmy, Classicgas, and Mr mopar. All of them are scholars and gentlemen. ?

Did some more work to the '59

Awesome score!

You're on a roll! Keep it up,it all looks great.

It'll buff out.

Glad to see you getting started on it.

Seeing all these beautiful '59s makes me not want to show mine. ?

So here is my dilemma on the T800. I have the AMT T600 and transkit. I also have a few of the Revell dump boxes in hope to build truck and trailer. My father-in-law has driven three of these, first one was a 1996 with a cat. These pics are of the 2011 with cummins, and his current ride is a 2017 that looks identical to the 2011. My goal is to build something that resembles but will not be an exact duplicate, with only minor details added. So I think the Revell box will be close enough once the tailgate gets squared up. The only other item I need is a steering axle that is similar to the one pictured...if possible. Any and all help is appreciated.

Yes, and in my sorting of parts I found an almost complete GMC Astro with turbine. I compared all the pieces to the instructions and it all matches up. I also have a Junkyard dog in like condition. I think these are headed to ebay. ?

Looking great ?

Thanks everyone, it is fun to save them when you can. I have a few from an old friend that I need to figure out how to scrub cooking grease off of without ruining them

Here is the old Chevrolet Titan that started out as a falling apart old built model. I cleaned it up and scavenged the missing parts to put it back together. I wanted to keep it in as close to original as I could. This makes a total of six trucks and three trailers in my fleet. Thanks for following.

Thanks Jeff! Cab is just about buttoned up. Next pics should be in under glass.

Great trade with Zen, love the truck.

I love that color!

That turned out awesome! I think you can get two more on the year. ?

Sweeet!

Ok, here is the one I am working on. It is modeled after my old bosses daughters car. Originally a little old lady one owner with 60k miles on a 350/350 with a/c, ps, pb. We blew the car apart, painted it this color blue, changed the interior color to grays, and put in a set of bucket seats, added aluminum dress up kit to the engine and the mag wheels.

A good friend sent me a text of this car awhile ago. I think he sent you a pic of my Elcamino. Love what you're doing with it.

Looks great!

I have been following this thread, and one, I have never seen this type of damage before, and two, I would have used them for parts, and three...the steering wheels are on the wrong flipping side of the car!! (Get that? Flip the steering wheel and it's...oh nevermind) FOUR, you are doing an awesome job keeping parts of the original builds as part of the new. Keep it up! ?
