  1. So after several attempts of twisting and rehaping using a naked flame to soften the plastic, i've ended up melting them. i've cut the melted bits out and will need to fabricate a new section
  2. This kit has been fighting me all the way! fitting the body was difficult, and resulted in the chassis and engine structure coming loose... which I've glued with superglue on the end of a toothpick... finally, after 5 attempts, its in, and glued. A bit of a mess, but not a visible mess. now exhausts... there is a clash in the red circle between the axle / mounts and the exh pipe, this results in a twist of the pipe at both the blue circle area & the outlets
  3. Exceptional build, thanks for sharing, can't believe that this is in 1.24 scale with so much fine detail!
  4. Not quite the end yet, but it's mostly assembled, I'm just going to have to fabricate new exhaust pipes...
  5. Clear coated with Zero 2k clear. It's OK, but there are about 8 major dust spots that need removing, and some of it needs to be sanded anyway... so will be a while before tje next post...?
  6. Thanks Sonny, next up will be finished pics!

  17. Amazing build of an interesting subject!
  18. Nice beater-come rat rod!
  19. That blue green paint is stunning!
  20. The last bit of this build has been painful, i've had to try to fit the chassis into the body 3 times, each time - something broke & fell off - and it didn't fit very well. the chassis sat too far forwrard for the wheels to sit in the wheel arches. I ended up having to cut off two lugs in the engine bay to get it t finally fit... next pics will be in the finished section! was supposed to be done by Dec, so its nearly 2 months late, but broke the duck for 2020!
  21. A BIG SHOUT OUT to Dr Trevor for sending me relacement decals! Following the house move, I've got around to airbrushing again. So I've masked and sprayed teh Zero Camel Yellow, ready for a light sand & applitcation of Zero 2k Clear - to help with the decal application. i'm now spraying in-doors, and there is a hell of a lot more dust around... so I'll have to accept a few blemishes...
