MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. Wow! That’s killer!
  2. Thanks! It’s a mix of blue and green Scale Finishes candies over a silver base. I want to try it out on a model project sometime.
  3. I needed another hobby about as much as I need a hole in the head. And yet here we are. I’ve gotten into collecting/restoring/customizing Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars. This is my first completed project. Started life as an Ertl General Lee that the previous owner must have really loved, judging by the condition. A little paint and decals, some different wheels, and she’s ready to roll again! If you’re into Hot Wheels, let’s see ‘em!
  4. They come in waves. Right now seems like the low point. They’ll probably be back closer to the end of the year.
  5. Thank you Carl! Yeah, I’ve been at the bench less since spring. I want to do more, but there’s just always something going on lately. But I’m pretty determined to finish this one on time. If I can pull it off, it’ll be my first complete group build.👍
  6. Haven’t done any update for this build for quite a while. I got sidetracked and also wasn’t sure how I wanted to tackle a few things. I recently finished the dashboard, and just today I painted the wheels. Hopefully this will get me back on track.👍
  7. Wheels are printed! I like these much better. I’m thinking flat or dark aluminum faces with polished aluminum rims and knock offs. Thanks to Topher for pointing me in the right direction.👍
  8. That looks like a Mean Machine Models file. I have that one, and I’ll print a set when I get a chance. I think we might have a winner!👍
  9. Where did you find bonneville rims with knock offs? That’s what I’d really like to put on the ‘32.😎
  10. These are the ones I’m thinking about. Just need to print another set to fit the tires I have.
  11. Thanks man! The wheels will definitely get some shine. If I stick with these, I’m thinking Aclad II polished aluminum. If I go with bonneville rims, I might go with polished aluminum outer rim, and maybe steel colored faces.
  12. These have knock offs, but I’m still not sure. I may print some US Mags bonneville rims and see how it looks.🤔
  13. Working on the stance and wheel attachment today. I dunno. What do you guys think about these wheels? I was sold on them before, but now I’m not totally sold. Opinions?
  14. Finished the dashboard yesterday. This is my first attempt at drilling out the molded gages and using decals from the backside.
