1934 Ford big truck
junkyardjeff replied to junkyardjeff's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
It was built using some new and mostly junk parts. -
They were smoking something when that kit was designed.
-
I am going to build the Revell version the next time.
-
This is that switchers kit that is horrible,did not turn out perfect but got it more looking as a 32 then it was supposed to.

Monogram '29 Ford engine, questions
junkyardjeff replied to Roadrunner's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
The ZZ top coupe and the 90s chopped top version was advertised as having a sbc but actually had the Pontiac made to look like a sbc. -

I will look for that kit. -
Was a 28/9 Ford coupe ever made
junkyardjeff replied to junkyardjeff's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I have two AMT roadster bodies so maybe time to see what I can make. -
I picked up a 64 thunderbolt rebuilder and would like to build it as a 289 hipo version so do any of the mustang kits have a good one.

The High Cost of the Hobby
junkyardjeff replied to Nitrobarry's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
To keep costs down I buy rebuilders and try to use parts I have in stock along with parts picked up at swapmeets. -
Sources for a Dana 60
junkyardjeff replied to junkyardjeff's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I am still looking for one. -
I now have to repair the modifications I done trying to put a stock frame under it but is starting to look like a car now,its got a stock firewall and inner fenders and will get a heater box.I started this before Revell came out with one.

34 Ford big truck
junkyardjeff replied to junkyardjeff's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I have some mud flaps on the way but still need to find some tail lights -
I dropped the frame and it broke so the gasser frame might go back under it,I was hoping to use a bunch of parts from the Revell 57 Nomad but its just too brittle and will only use small parts.
-
I had the body and using the frame and other parts from my Revell 57 Nomad so I am going to build this 57 as a old race car put back on the street,power will be from a dual quad 425 Buick and 4 speed after I remove the automatic trans. Hood will be filled and not sure on the color yet.

I am thinking about getting the 65 F100 long bed and convert to a 3/4 ton,I know where I can get the rims and tires but what about a Dana 60. Not really wanting to buy a complete kit to get one so anyone know if one is available in resin.
-
I can not believe anyone would have thought to make a kit like this,even the box art shows what a mess it is but I wanted to see if I could make it better.
