A custom from the Batmobile?
Jon Haigwood replied to JollySipper's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I have recently inherited a couple partial Futura kits. Not sure if I have enough parts to build one but have been thinking about what I might put the bubble roof and/or fins on. -
I haven't decide yet what I am going to do with it yet. I know I am going to rob it of the Custom roof and maybe some other custom parts for the 49 Custom Coupe project I have coming up.

Looked thru my kit first of all you get a nifty little box \ Options for customizing front and rear Molde in exhaust Choice of top up or top down or custom half top Some plastic two piece slicks some nice printed rubber slicks and witewalls with wide on one side and narrow on the other Some nice chrome with mag wheels and beauty trim rings, custom stuff and a dual air horn assorted decals

Kit extras (patch?)
Jon Haigwood replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
That may be right. The only kit my brother had that was a Roth was a Rat Fink I didn't see his box but none on line had anything about a patch included -

What the world really needs is a magnet for plastic. -
Kit extras (patch?)
Jon Haigwood replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I found the same patch minus the "Revell" logo on the Roth website, It is a iron-on patch but I am not sure when they started doing iron-ons. -
I was recieved this yesterday and I am trying to figure out where it first appeared. I am thinking it may have been an extra included in a Revell/Roth kit. Any information on it and what other extra were included with kits ?

This one says 71 Apparently the Hauler Kit was a MPC and then Barris and others built the 1:1 car after it. There is more info here if your interested http://www.barris.com/carsgallery/noveltyproduct/hardhathauler.php -

That should be better -
I am in the process of helping my step-brother downsize his stuff . His interest in models funs from scifi, horror figure and a few cars. Looking thru them I ran across these two. Not something you normally find. Was there any interest in these or were they "one no-hit wonders"?

Makin' it wider {what am I missing}
Jon Haigwood replied to CountryJoe's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
You might achieve the same look by doing a top chop and sectioning the body -
Unusual Different Build
Jon Haigwood replied to Olderisbetter's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
A bipolar Ford ? -
Was that the Deville roof like the one I have in my photo ? I will probably use that on the 49 Coupe.

Those look nice
-
Thanks for the link. There is a lot of good info and pictures there
-
That makes sense
-
I was somewhat surprised at differance in the chassis between the two. The 50 has the cross frame and the 49 doesn't. I would like to find some photos or drawings of the underside of both cars in 1:1 scale. I once owned a 49 and a 51 and probably spent a lot of time underneath them but that was 50 years ago and I can't remember how they looked. Definitely like the 49 better.

I wish I could find more pictures and information on it
