My kind of build, great job!

Nice job everyone. Here's one more I just got back.

Picked these up today from a friends mother. Some are ones I built when I was a kid.

I've been wanting to do the same thing. My first car was a 65 Fairlane with a 289 too. I have the stocker version but it's going to need a lot of work to make it look stock again. The other thing is that the promos aren't cheap either, every once in a while I think I'll think I can get one on ebay but at the end of the auction they go up like crazy. Good luck with your search, I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Not sure if this counts but here's my 59 Caddy. An old ecto1 kit that I filled in the rear windows to give it a hearse look.

Wow, great job! The Corvette is a wild choice for this conversion, I like it a lot! If you don't mind could you add a few pics to this thread, I'd appreciate it.

I got this pile & a bunch more, but haven't gone through it all yet. There's still more to pick up too. The KW box was full of Plastruct stuff and the other is just parts. This all probably would have been thrown away if I wasn't there to help them move, it all looks like junk to my friends brother & mother. They try to keep any model stuff or old toys set aside for me but the plastruct stuff looks like nothing to most people who don't build.

WOW, beautiful truck! Great job!

I love it! A Ford heart in a Chevy truck, perfect. ?

More great models guys! Keep them coming. So, I was digging through some old models I got from a friend who passed away and I realized that there are a few that I built & traded him. Here is one from the 80s complete with all the awful thread plug wires & globed paint, but hey it was a long time ago. My OLD 55 Chevy...

I always wanted to built this a as diorama. I took this pic about 15 years ago at a friends junkyard. The bigger tree is actually coming through the floor & out the windshield. Unfortunately when the junk prices got high it all went to the crusher, over 1,000 cars.

WOW, amazing job all around! But you know me, I love that weathering it's just the right amount. Great job!

Your 49 is really nice! I've been working on my father's 51, we're putting power steering in it & it's been fighting us all the way. Great progress on your model, keep up the good work. I can't wait to see a finished pic sitting next to your full size truck.

Lets see what ya got, all of your builds are AMAZING! To everyone here, great work on all of these builds. The only thing wrong with them is that they aren't factory 1:1 cars and they should be!

Yup, watching this one for sure!

Hey Jerry, the first night Pepper was talking & howling all night long but not so much now. Mia on the other hand sings & talks all day long, I swear she thinks she's having a conversation with you.

Best Cooter's wrecker ever done! Great job.

"not so new or shiny" Hey, that's my favorite kind of truck! Great job on this old workhorse.

Great work Ken. I watched this in the wip section & was inspired to start a thread. If you don't mind I would love for you to add some pics of this beauty to it. Thanks, Mark

I love it! Great job!

I went last night & picked up 2 Foose 56 pickups & some other odds & ends. The best part of the trip was watching a father & son (the kid had to be about 13) pick out a fox body Mustang kit and all the paints and supplies to build it. Next gen builders are still out there.

These are all awesome! GREAT WORK EVERYONE! Keep going guys, I need to see more.

Cool! I like it. I see your a bit of a rustoholic too. It's a lot harder for me to make things look clean.

Great looking truck! Thanks for sharing it.
