'72 Jeep Commando
Goose1957 replied to Plowboy's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Great looking Jeep. Love the wheels and tires. They are fun to modify. Jeff -
I'm running out of room.
Goose1957 replied to ewetwo's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Get rid of the hornet's nest and you could get 3 or 4 more builds in there lol ( just kidding, that's actually pretty cool, wish I had one too). I have an old display case that came out of our family's print shop when we closed the doors years ago. I just can't get to it right now because I have soooooo many new kits stacked in front of it ( not kidding ). I really need to stop buying and get to building more, there's just too much neat stuff being released now. Jeff -
Great, another Jeep kit to add to the list (and after seeing the Italeri new release thread). I'm kidding, I can't wait for the stock version. I must have about a dozen of the modified kits and snap kits. I need a stock one to model my daily driver. The modified one has too many modifications to model my Jeep. Thank you Revell, bring it out tomorrow, lol. Jeff

Dang, looks like I'll be buying more Jeep kits. I like that Range Rover kit too. Glad I got a raise this year at work, lol. Jeff

What could go wrong? I mean, he's got an orange triangle on the back. Lol. Jeff

Flamed 80 Hilux High Rider
Goose1957 replied to scalepeter's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Good looking truck. I just picked up one of those kits at a show and was wondering how well they went together. The flames look like the old Parma paint masks. I've used a bunch of them painting slotcar bodies when I used to race. They work very nice and if you're careful peeling them off, some of them are reusable. Cool 4x4. Jeff -
Revell Ford Bronco
Goose1957 replied to SnozzaP's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Very nice Bronco. I really like the white on the lower part of the body. Great job. Jeff -
You are correct, the early seasons show a small block under the hood, but in later seasons, around 9 or 10, I can't recall right now, it definitely has a big block in there. So either would be correct depending on what season you're modeling. As a HUGE fan of the show,(I think I said that before) I can't wait for this to hit the shelves. Just disappointed they didn't make the trunk open, such an important part of the show. Jeff

TV Tommy Ivo had several kits made with him on it. Jeff

Great looking Astro. Did you build it box stock, or did you modify anything. I have one of these kits I want to build like my dad's old Astro and I already know a couple of things I need to change, like the rear doors. My dad's had the vertical split cargo doors in the rear and a rear bench seat. I like your color choice and the underneath painting. Good job. Jeff

Nice compound turbos on that Willys. Wonder what the boost is going into the head? Jeff

1/25 AMT 1977 Ford Delivery Van w/Coke Machine
Goose1957 replied to Casey's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
One of the Coke kits I'm looking forward to. The other is the C600 stake bed. Need that to haul all of the vending machines from all the other kits, lol. Jeff -
Great news! Gonna pick up one or two of those for planned projects. Jeff

1950 Chevy
Goose1957 replied to Tommy Isbister's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Really great build and weathering. Where is the pig from? That really made the model. Jeff -
Revell 77 GMC
Goose1957 replied to Classicgas's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
That came out really nice. Good attention to detail. There have been some really good builds of this kit on here lately. Yours is definitely among them. I need to build one of these soon. Jeff -
Finally finished this build. It's a finicky kit for sure, gave me some fitment issues and as usual, my paint job is sub par. But it is a cool kit of a different and cool car, so I was more than happy to see it reissued. I built it stock more or less. The paint might not match factory codes, but my memory of one running around town when I was a kid was of this color scheme. I didn't fully do the engine bay as it wasn't easy finding good, clear pics inside the engine bay without the spare tire getting in the way. Plus the starter went into the stratosphere while I was painting it in a pair of tweezers and somehow disappeared into the linoleum monster (is that possible?). So I decided to not fret the small details and take several members advice and just build it for fun (thanks hpi guy and several others). Thanks for looking. Jeff

Snapped this pic today at the trucking company close to my job. They always have some cool loads. See my earlier posts. I figured they would have some this week since last weekend was the big antique auto show at Hershey PA. Sorry the pics so far away, but I snap my pics from the public roads, I'm not going to tresspass on private property without permission. Would make a cool build with the auto rack reissue announced.

Revell bronco
Goose1957 replied to Jared Roach's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Nicely done. Great paintwork and interior. Man, there are some nice Broncos popping up on here lately. Gotta get off my keister and build one of the kits I have squirrled away now. Jeff -
Revell Baja Bronco My Way
Goose1957 replied to Kmb0319's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Great looking Bronco. The color combination works good for it. Good job on your first 4x4, it won't be your last. Jeff -
Wow, that's sharp. That is what I'm looking to build. Thanks Jeff
