welcome back to the hobby Dave. These are the best forums for sharing and finding ideas and inspiration. Build them like you want 'em and finished or not enjoy the experience.

I sunburned my

Truly a labor of love. Lots of work and looking menacing. Thanks for sharing.

I found some paper in the scrapbooking isle at HL and that produces great leaves if varying colors. I sprayed the back side of that paper with rusty Brown primer to avoid having one side being white.

Dayton news channel 7 news reported yesterday that Dayton' s solid waste disposal site received 3,100 tons of storm debris material in one day that was removed from damaged properties.

Skyrgosi time there?

Rather than buy a five foot long piece of threaded rod and have a two lifetime supply, I when to my local hardware store and bought two 1/4-20 plastic bolts. Those have enough material for several projects for me. The bolts were $.65 each.

Best of luck with your health issues. Most of us don't have to look too far to find someone who's worse off.

Rat rod material?

I recommend that you do some on-line research if you going to be adding outside door handles to open Ford model T's as not all of them had handles on both sides of the car. Look closely at the AMT '25 Ford roadster body and you'll see that only the passenger side door actually opened. The driver's side door did not open. The door profile is just stamped into the sheet metal.

My quick search lead to sources like Wal-Mart and Menards.

Check the Revell Ford model A and T kits. They have very nice chromed ones. Caution and care are needed getting them off of the sources though. Thin and delicate parts on heavy stories can = disaster.

Thanks,those did not show up on my Kindle device the first time. What is that material the cylinders are made from? I would like to build some vintage motorcycle engines and that looks to be the perfect stuff to start with.

Outstanding craftsmanship. Where did you get your reference material?

I accessed that site and not being able to read German can't read it. Saw no photos of the engine under construction so I am assuming there aren't any available. A super clean build with withstand paint and details. Thanks for sharing.

Please let us know where the engine is from.

Ain't their thing

Exactly right Tom. Always use the man's shopping credo of "see it,like it,buy it". This rule applies to everything you need like, groceries,clothing,resin models and the rest of life's basic necessities.

I am the world's biggest advocate for building exactly what you like the way you like. Be sure to post the finished truck photos when this evolves to it's final glory. Thanks for sharing.

IMHO in photo #2 the rear roof section seems to lean forward a little too much. Possibly it's the angle the photo was taken from.Are these pre-glue set-togeather shots?

Imagine for a moment what would happen if the instruction sheets were like that:)

Next we should

Better eyes available?

Very nice to see a Willys built in the low and slow style instead of the all to often(IMO) nose high gassed style. The body mods you selected are very well done and remind me of the Lincoln Zephyrs of the '30's. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
