Fenders have paint and will be together this weekend,found a molded in gray Buick engine so it's painted and will be going in. The only non vintage parts are the bumper brackets that came off a Lindbergh chassis

Chopped top 34 Ford
junkyardjeff replied to junkyardjeff's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Paint is terrible so it's getting soaked,I found the complete chassis and most likely came with it but was never used. Hood is glued to the body and grille shell so it will not get a complete engine. -
More parts found so along with the coupe this one is getting built,this one and the coupe are getting built with parts and paint I have in stock and not going to run to eBay for missing parts. Not much detail and quick build while I come inside to cool off on these hot days,engine is going to be the optional Olds engine with injection.

What doe these numbers mean

Thanks for the info,the decals will be removed and it will eventually be made into a gasser. -
I found a unpainted sedan body and hood I would like to save and need a set of black sedan fenders.

It looks like one more 40 build could happen,found this sedan body and need to know what class those numbers are for. I was wanting to build a gasser but have no clue on the numbers. -
Desoto hemi in a 40 Ford
junkyardjeff replied to junkyardjeff's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Paint is drying on the chassis and the fenders are soaking to get the paint off plus I think I might have a partially built hemi so when the paint dries on the chassis I will see if it fits. I know it does not have the usual mounts and if my memory is correct it attaches to the frame in the F100 by the front of the oil pan,I have put about every engine in a 40 except for a early hemi. -
I am in the process of building another old AMT 40 coupe and still not decided on a engine,I found out I have a unbuilt hemi from the 53 F100 kit and was wondering if anyone has put one in a 40 without too much cutting.

It's got bumpers and took the chrome pen to a set of stock 40 rims, something to do when I come on to cool down.

When I rebuilt alot of the models from that big parts stash I picked up I ended up on ebay finding better parts but on this one I am not spending a penny and using what I have in stock including paint.

Just when I thought I used up all usable parts I find more.

I really have others I can build but looking to do a quicky on this one,using the last decent body parts from that parts collection I picked up a couple years ago. Going to build this one as a 40 standard since the only good fenders are from a sedan and not sure of the engine but leaning towards the 390 from the 34 pickup kit which I should have one that is unbuilt. Thinking primered bumper less hotrod

Custom 1961 F 100
junkyardjeff posted a topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Most likely started in the 60s but never finished and shortened,the original chassis was gone so I shortened one from a 56 F 100 and addeda Lincoln engine from a old AMT T kit along with the suspension from a 68 Camaro kit. The same person started the custom 56. -

Another custom truck

Due to the heavy flake I presume it was started in the 60s. -
Resit parts for a AMT 67 Impala
junkyardjeff replied to junkyardjeff's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Not really wanting to buy another kit to get the parts but might see if I can modify the hood. -
