Nice work on the interior.
-
Nice. Going for a "resto rod" look here I guess?
-
I like the enormous amounts of creativity here, doubt that I would have came up with this idea myself.
-
Lovely truck, but to be completely honest, I like the bike even more, I understand that it was fun to build.
-
Impressive work.
-
Looks great this far.

Seems like the F12 always had brown interiors, from the sources I can find, so brown it is. And yes, I am going to clean them up, since the seat bottoms aren't the most visible it felt easier to paint them on the sprue and touch them up later.
I started building the engine already during the spring. Since it seems like they were painted with most of the stuff assembled, there is not much detailing to do, everything should be green.
The frame was also assembled and painted during this spring. Red to match the striping on the cab.

I could swear that this issue was with only the first issue of the Nomad kit and that later reissues got the corrected pan in it.
Maybe. I did build mine in 1997 so I guess it was an early issue then.
-
Yeah, the Nomad front bumper is way off, but IIRC the Del Ray has a shorter pan behind it and does not have the 5 mph look of the Nomad kit?
-
That explains a lot. I had expected more of an Esci than this. Generally they are good kits.
-
Another well deserved bump, a nice build I have never seen before, love the 288 GTO.
-
Wow, I love it! This generation Celica is probably the best looking japanese car ever and putting that Celsior stuff underneath makes it a beast. Not the easiest to pull off but you managed to do it very well.
-
Very nice, 30s luxo barges are my favourite subjects.
-
Yeah, surely a bump but who cares with such a beauty? It deserved to be seen again.
-
1969 is my favourite year for both Camaro and Mustang and both builds are great. Thumbs up!
-
Of all the builds I have seen of this kit, I think that this is my favourite. Different, and I like it very much.
-
I am a Mercedes enthusiast and the 300SL is my dream car above everything else, but the nice thing about models is that you can do whatever you want even to valuable and rare cars.
I see nothing wrong with it, it is a great build.
-
I see nothing wrong with it, on a hot rod your own imagination is what sets the limits, looks completely fine to me.
-
F40 is probably the coolest "modern" Ferraris IMO, feels a bit odd to see one in blue, but yes, it works.
-
Well proportioned and well built, nice.

Very nice! Had a dull red one in college, great reliable transportation. Always wanted to replicate it with that kit, but I wasn't sure what to do about the bumpers. Did you scratch build yours or are they aftermarket. Now I'm motivated to start mine. Absolutely spot on build!
The old tool Revell VW Convertible has the right bumpers.
-
Did you make it from an AMT 1970 Ford kit?
-
Thanks for the kind comments, it ended up as a nice cruiser anyway, so I am satisfied even though it's not my best build.

Paintjob turned out like I wanted to, it just needs some clearcoat now.

Modern trucks might not be my thing but I like this one, very nice work.
