Great work on the details!

Good looking merc! Great color and engine details!

Very nice!

Nothing to see here.

Ron, if you are interested in using the wheels as in the 1st picture, they can be found in Revell's Pro Stock kit #7362 Larry Morgan's Super Clean Olds. Shy of the bead lock on the rear wheels, they are exactly the same wheels.

Nothing to see here.

@Rocking Rodney Rat, I think your pretty darn good with that there chainsaw! You create some builds!! As far as the precision cutting thing goes, @Kit Karson is like the best at that. He helps me quite a bit with figuring out an idea and how to do it. He's so good at that! I myself, I'm just a hack that knows how to cover his tracks really good! Anyhow, I have all intensions of finishing this thing. I just hope it's not "someday" when its finished!

@BullybeefI realize it's not a race! lol, I sure wouldn't be doing this if it was! When I first started this project, I had all the intentions of it being a fairly simple build. But as always, my builds seem migrate in another direction. I just thought it would be great to meet the deadline like most everyone else.

Jim, thanks for taking the time to check out the build! And I'm glad you're enjoying it.

What an awesome build! At first, I thought you painted it with splash paints Ocra Pearl SP-215. But that's a nice color you put on it. At one time, we had talked about applying alclad. It really helped me out using that stuff. But I got to say, you have the best alclad I have seen. So brilliant. Fantastic work Luke!

Well, not too sure if this thing is going to see the finish line date. If I weight time spent versus what little time is left, well it just doesn't look good. I actually thought I would do better. There are a couple guys that are almost done and have done some great work! Others not too far behind. Sometimes being a slow builder just don't work in a place like this. I'm just going to keep on plugging along and see what happens. The last update of my '32, left off getting the wheel tubs finished up. At this point it is ready for the rear frame to be modified to fit between the new wheel tubs. First thing to be done is to cut the frame apart to remove a sizable chunk out of the middle. I chose to save the gas tank, and it will be reinstalled in its original location This got things close, but the rails did not run true to the tubs as the front part of the frame section is wider than the rear. To fix this, a small amount of material was removed get things straightened out. The rear frame section now fits. And fits nice and snug. So next is the gas tank. It needs a place to mount. Some pieces of 0.60 sheet were used to build a new floor at the very back. After the new rear floor was cleaned up and finished, it was time to rejoin the rear frame section too the main frame. A couple small pieces of .080x.156 evergreen is used to create the area to glue too. Once glued in place, it was left to dry overnight Still more to do now that the frame is rejoined. I did get the rear seat narrowing started. Will show that next time. Here's a couple pics of the car fitting together. Also added the vent door. That's it for now. More to come..........

Excellent build! Very well done!

Very nice! Alot to like about this build.

Nice dodge! Came out great!

Ouch! So much entertainment while modeling!

Very nice! You did a great job for OOB build!

Allways cool to see what one can do with a '53 corvette. Well done!

Interesting build and done very well!

Nice poncho! Looks good in red with the black/white strip!

Very nice!

Very nice! Great detail work and the paint looks oh so smooth!

Would never have thought to tail drag a jag! Pretty cool project Eddie.

I think that's a nice graphic for the side of the car and really complements the color of the body. Nice work RRR

Very nice!

First time I've seen that mash! Well done!
