Awesome work!

Very nice work! I love the lack of chrome.

I've not had a lot of progress worth posting on my C-cab but I did manage to do some chroming on the wheels & headers. I swapped out the wire wheels for some I drew up and printed to roughly match the rear wheels, and that allowed for shorter tires. The last pic shows where I got the idea for the header collectors.

Ditto. I try to use his process of using parts from other cars to make something different.

Impressive work!

Well, I didn't get my KG finished in time to make my year-end deadline, so I'll just do a status update. I still have to put the decals and placards on, add some driving/fog lights, skid plates, and mud flaps. It's been a challenging, yet fun build. Faux pas notwithstanding.

Great progress!

Nice builds and photography to boot!

Great project! I can't give any advice because it looks like you could teach me a thing or two.
-
Nice project Les!
-
I'd love to see it in the mix, and I know what you mean about the dated look. You could always make some minor modifications to make it more to your liking though.

Welcome to the forum Boston! I started watching F1 myself this year because it was a way to keep in touch with a neighbor that moved away. His son loves Max V.

What floor would you have under your model build area?
MeatMan replied to GLMFAA1's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I can't "recommend" anything, but take a look at those rubber strips they use at the auto parts stores for standing long periods of time. My dining room build area had a multi-color rug, but no matter where the piece wound up they were hard to find in all but the lightest color (see Berber above). My current basement workshop has vinyl tile. Its white with black and gold spots and is probably the worst thing you could have. Its over a concrete floor, so parts bounce when they hit it and you wouldn't believe how far they can go. Good luck. -
What problems did you have cutting the chassis? Others may learn from it, thanks.

Nice save!
