What a project!! Four years in the runnin'!!! Now that's true dedication right there! Wow!!

Good grief!!! This is off the charts!!! Great work Dmitry!!

Nice work on this one Pat!!

Got the cab finished. Tried and tried on the magnets with no dice. I've got some pretty small ones too but they just wouldn't fit up under the cowl. Working on other alternatives.............

The next update I carry out will be the completion photos. I spent this morning installing the hood and hinges, the windshield and the truck bed. I only have about nine items left to install but it's all a tedious thing right now. Tomorrow I'll end up installing the rear window, rear view mirror and the dice. I'll most likely make to installing the cab onto the frame. After that its down to the bumpers, sidesteps, gas cap and the upper radiator hose. I can't believe this thing is finally in the closing steps but will be taking my time here as I want to avoid any last minute mishaps. I should be posting photos within the next few days. Just in time for Christmas....

I always favored the 64/65 year models over the 66's but I was happy with what I had as a kid. I could never get over the use of 13" wheels though......

Thanks John! I haven't posted anything for the last few days but I've been waiting for a few days now for the opportunity to go to the hobby or hardware store to pick up some magnets to install so I can raise the hood and it stay up when opened. After I get the hood installed this thing will literally put itself together. lol Thanks to those who have commented so far for all your encouragement along the way.

Nice stance to this one. Are the tires out of box?

Man that's some great work Erik! Among the other details I really like the interior trim designs. Wow!

Nice stance on that bad boy Jeremy!

Thanks Dan! Hopefully I can stay on par with the rest of the talent in this area of the forum.

This may not seem like a big deal to some but it's a major breakthrough for me in the fact that I've got the R/H inner fender well installed. The hard part was just getting the thing to fit. I managed to get the interior/ engine bay isolators at both sides of the firewall installed as well. I had to cut a 3rd fender well out for the L/H side and after stripping the protective coat and polishing up the insides is now in the paint booth with the wheel side of it drying / curing out. One step closer.......

You forgot the hole in the bottom of the boat..........

This is cool so far. I've got a van model kit that I'll have to break out soon I think with all this inspiration.

The next generation. It's good to see a youngster interested in modeling. Superb job on that Jeep so far at that!!

Looks to be really interesting and fun to watch. Build away Jeremy!

Yeah right!!! lol You see, this would just kill me off. I did manage to switch back over to this build this morning. I installed the R/H inner fender well. I need to start completely over with the L/H one though as it doesn't fit right. Tsk, Tsk , Tsk and more tsk , tsk , tsk. Two steps forward and one step backwards. I'll get this thing done sooner or later I guess.

After allowing the gray primer to dry and straightening out a couple of holes and cracks , I shot a coat of flat black on the whole engine for the pre shade effect and allowed to dry overnight. This morning I shot several light coats of red on and so far am happy with the results. I'll be masking the oil pan off and shooting that with a coat or two of aluminum after the red cures out. I've also started working on the valve covers. I'll be going with Alclad for those.

Somehow I missed this one over at SA. Very nice work!!!

This is a re-definition of scale modeling here. I'm sure you came from somewhere in modeling but I just can't imagine where. You're bringing a lot to the table with this one..........ALOT.

No problemo buddy!

Got this far after trimming and sanding the hek out of this thing. Got 'er primed to see any bad areas and will be throwing a coat of flat black on it tomorrow for the pre-shading.

Welcome aboard Jeremy! You're gonna like this place..............ALOT!!!!

Thanks Mike. I've always been drawn to the Cuda line up myself. Right now I'm looking for any more pictures I can get of this car. I've found about 10 photos of it but if anybody has a link on more information for this car I'd sure appreciate it.

Pics dude! Pics!!!
