2023 Cannonball Run-What-You-Brung Build Thread
MeatMan replied to White Rabbit's topic in Community Builds
I got started on the body of my Monza by switching out the stock front fascia with the custom one, which I modified for a more streamlined look. I'm currently in the process of smoothing the hood and front fascia to eliminate the dip. It takes away some of the Monza identity but I want to add another feature that won't work with the dip in the hood. I removed the bottom of the stock rear fascia and added the bottom of the custom one because I didn't want the 5 MPH bumpers but did want to retain the stock taillights. I added a strip of styrene rod for the bumper. One reason for that is that the taillight housing overlapped the pan, which resulted in an unfinished look. My inspiration for this look is the Super Spyder concept car in the last pic. -
Resin BBC Torker intake

I need that too for a replica of my 70 Chevelle I had back in the day that had a torker on it. -

Well, here are pics of my first and only chop. It wasn't as hard as you might think, but was a nice test of my skills. Here is a link to my Fotki site with detail on how I did it. https://public.fotki.com/Urban-Poet/32-vic/ As for resin, I've done a few of them and they are no picnic either. You need to be very careful when sanding the stuff as it can cause respiratory issues and there may be work getting it to fit the chassis. I'm not against resin though by any stretch. Whichever you pick, enjoy!

Sorry I didn't respond to your post Seth. Your results are a little sedate for the CBP but that's some awesome detail. I'll still add you to the list of entrants.

Yes, I need that. Right now I'm using bins and plastic boxes in two locations but I have them separated in bags. I have a bin for body parts, one for chassis parts separated by type. Rear ends, springs & shocks, batteries, rear ends, and front ends each get a bag. Interior parts are in another bin, separated by dashes & consoles, steering wheels & seats. Engine parts get a bin too separated by engine assemblies, breathers & rocker covers, manifolds, carbs & FI, and ignition & electrical.

Thanks for posting! I need a setup like that for my C-cab rear door. I just got the brass in last week.

Is there a 1961 Chrysler Turboflite resin kit?
MeatMan replied to mopargreg's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
If you look at the ad carefully you may note that it says a print ready stl is $900! I'm assuming that the stl that is on the file list is not print ready and will probably require extensive work in Blender or some other program. -
Very nice!
