    Tugboat

    I built the boat (The Illusion) a few years ago but never had a tow car that looked good with it. So, I decided to make one using similar style to the boat. I started with the Lincoln Futura. I cut off the rear and added the rear from a 1958 TBird. I also added the front grill and bumper along with a Corvette hood to match the boat. The paint is a combination of three colors of nail polish. Thanks for looking and I hope you like it. Dave
  5. Nice work! I’ve always liked that color on the 442! Dave
  6. This is very nice. A nice way to get around town. It looks like a smaller modified Thing. Dave
  7. Thanks again for the nice comments! Dave
  8. Beautiful job! That color is really really nice! I started working on one the other day. Dave
  9. Thanks again for your kind comments. Dave
  10. Thanks for the nice comments. I’m glad you liked it. It was a fun build. Dave
  11. I finished this about a month ago. I used the rear end from a '40 Ford delivery and added it to the front of a VW bug. I also carved out the front hood and made the grill for the V8 inside. I hope you like it and thanks for looking. Dave
  12. Interesting color combo! Dave
  13. Nice color! This is a cool kit although I don't like the multi piece body. Dave
  14. I made a license plate for a boat hauler I’m making.
  15. The sinkhole was back in 2014. They filled it in and you can walk on where it was. There’s also a viewing port.
  16. My wife and I recently drove across country from Arizona to NJ and back. We stopped in Bowling Green Kentucky at the National Corvette Museum. What a very well laid out place! It described the beginning of the Vette all the way thru all its changes including the prototypes. It housed so many one of a kind and very rare Vettes. There was a rally there as well and the parking lot was loaded with Vettes. There was also a track for people to drive. I didnt go to the track but could hear the cars. The parking lot.
  17. I saw this old Plymouth today in Dewey/Humboldt,Az
  18. I was looking in Micromark and saw a few models for a reasonable price and thought I would share. https://www.micromark.com/new-items-closeout/closeouts/custitem_type_facet/1-SLASH-24-Scale,1-SLASH-25-Scale,Unassembled-Kit?new-items-closeout%25252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252Fcloseouts=

  19. This is looking great! I'm looking forward to seeing it in color! Dave
  20. I'm not sure what shape tanks you are looking for but I have used regular and small BIC lighters (they need to have any pressure removed from inside) and PVC pipe or copper pipe. The PVC or copper have open ends but you can use some old simple hubcaps for the ends. Dave
  21. I got a bit further on this. One more priming and I think it’s good for finish. I also got the hinges on the rear door. Dave
  22. Picked this one up to build for a friend who had one back in the day. Dave
  23. I did a bit more work on this. Smoothed out the body (it likely will need more body work). I used stained and sealed coffee stirrers for the floor. I'm also working on rear door hinges. Looking to paint it a metallic black, but I have to make sure the body work can support black. Being that the vehicle is powered by a V8 and the bug doesn't have a front grill, I had to make one. I think it looks pretty good. I also added tires and Cragar wheels. Thanks for looking. Dave
  24. Thanks again guys! Dave
  25. I really like the hot rod sleigh! Dave
