MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. Great job on a kit that does not get the respect that it deserves. For one thing, it has arguably the best dropped beam axle and hydraulic brake backing plate detail of any put to 1/24th scale. One of the best proportioned as well, especially before the release of the Revell kit. Very cool build.
  2. That is awesome. What scale is that? Was the original the same scale? The detailing also really brings it to life.
  3. I think that was a custom touch, rather than a mistake. It's a great way to tell a real Little Deuce/Son of Ford from a clone though.
  4. Looking really good, stance and wheels, color, accessories, great package. This points up what a great potential this kit has for kit-bashers, and what a great kit all-around it could be if Round2 were to tool up a few new parts.
  5. I agree. I'll add that full fendered rods also look better that way.
  6. The problem with the bottom one is that it is a re-boxed version of the MPC kit.
  7. https://boxartden.com/collections/gallery/index.php/Vintage-Model-Kit-Catalogs-1950-1999/Renwal If those old Renwal tools still exist, Atlantis will have them.
  8. It would appear so. That would be a great way for somebody to finally do an accurate 32 Ford chassis in scale. Looking at the tree with the wheels, it appears to be 3 inners and 3 outers.
  9. Yep. that was addressed to me after I posted. I'm looking forward to picking one or a few up myself.
  10. That evidently is short a sprue or two, as I don't see an engine, frame, or suspension. Among other parts. Looks good though.
  11. Looks great! For the record, AMT totally miss-labeled this kit. It's actually a 75-76 Dodge Dart Sport.
  12. This mistake is on Revell I know, but I wouldn't call those wheels Kidney Beans. This is a Kidney Bean wheel. The Sedan appears to have Halibrand Sprint or C10 wheels.
  13. Well I stand somewhat corrected. 5 lug wheels on the rear appear to be a brake drum switch away. Being more of a Ford guy, that is a new one on me. https://autouniversum.wordpress.com/2019/11/29/a-1960s-classic-the-pontiac-8-lug-wheel/
  14. I know this. Just like "The Notebook" is just a movie. This was just an observation.
