Sam I Am

My pizza should never be cold in that delivery vehicle. ?

Nice job Al. The 46-8 was one of my dad's favorites. Yours is a nice clean daily driver by the looks of it, and that's what it's all about. I know there are a few that I wish I had kept as well.

Talk about timing... I just returned home after working on a couple of my friend's cars. He just bought this custom '41 Packard. I haven't even had a chance to see if ANY '41 Packard was kitted in any way, shape, or form. This is a custom because Packard did not build a two door woody. This was built out of a two door sedan.

Beautiful...

Love the rose. I did one in pink a couple months ago. First time I ever tried the big wheel look. They really fit this car well. Glad mine did not have the warping issue.

Lei, I love your interior. What kit exactly did it come from? Here is a link to my finished sedan delivery. The donor kit is the Ranchero and I used all of the chassis and interior. There are those that have worked with resin far longer than I have. Prep takes longer, some more than others. Thorough cleaning of the resin is essential, the mold release agent takes extra effort to clean. Your paint may fisheye, or even flake off if you don't. I learned the hard way. I use dawn dish soap myself but other modelers use different cleaners as well.

I wonder if we all got together for a community build for motivation, would any of these get finished. ?

Just finished a great trade with AZPartsLocators. Great guy and would trade with him anytime.

I guess I won't tell you how nice the resin body is now that you went to all this trouble to build your own excellent creation. ? I have a resin wagon body as well. I will be using some of your tricks when I build it.

Very nice. The colors perfect and the little details you added really make it stand out.

Love the color!

Sweet ride!

Nice work, love the direction your taking this.

It looks great Bob. Again, the color on this is perfect, nice stance too. Hope mine comes out as nice. So what is next on the bench?

Thanks Bob, I've been following yours and it's awesome ?

Just pm me the times and dates, we can make it work. Hobby room is cluttered, to put it nicely, but always a different clutter ?

I finally am calling it quits with the foil work. Not my best by any means, but good enough for who it's for.

I will have a large Canadian bacon with pineapple and cashews, and a large chicken bacon ranch. Oh, and delivered please. ?

What he said. ?

I love it ! ?

Watch where you put your finger Ismael, the coil boxes on these really pack a punch. ? When my dad was younger he used one as a theft deterrent on his. ?

That color looks awesome. ?

I plan on trying my hand at the same thing, only with the '41 Plymouth.

Thanks to Michael and his 65/6 Chevy pickup build, I was reminded of a project I had at the age of 19. I wasn't able to finish it due to a move. It can be called a phantom as well. Why is it a phantom you ask? Because in 1961, from what I have been told, and researched myself, is that the panel was only produced as a 2wd. In 1960 GM went in house for 4x4 production, and while I found the pickup and Suburban mentioned being produced as a 4x4, I have yet to find any information that specifically mentions either the 1960 or 1961 panel being available as a 4x4. Mine was a 1961 Chevrolet Panel truck sitting on a 1964 4x4 chassis with a 1965 hood and grill. It had a 327 in it, and a turbo 400. Also a set of low back bucket seats of unknown origin. Due to the divorced transfer case I could put just about any transmission in it I wanted. Plans were to keep it silver and add mid 70's GM rally wheels. Replacing the front bumper with a different tube style that had provision for a winch, with a matching tube rear bumper with receiver hitch. At the time, keeping it simple would have given me a budget friendly build. I dug these out of my stash and did a quick mockup. I am going to see if a boondocker blazer will give me a chassis. Sorry it is not a finished build(I just mocked it up today), but I could not find a build thread for panels and s sedan deliveries.

Good to know, thanks.
