mchook

I was probably 8 or 9 and my parents got this in a box lot at an auction. It got me hooked. Monogram 32 roadster.

DO IT!!!?

Nice, who makes the crew cab?

Thanks Jeff, I used a thin wire that I squeezed with the tip of some needle nosed pliers a little at a time. It gave it that tack weld look, then I just glued it in place.

Thanks Daniel Thanks bill Thanks Donato Thanks David Thanks Charles Thanks Charles

Man, this is some AMAZING weathering! Great job!

I'm calling it done. More under glass soon.

Thanks! Thanks Kit! Thanks Sam! My father had one that would run 60mph and he always said he didn't dare going any faster for that reason. Going fast is fun but being able to stop is a necessity.? Thanks Dennis Thank you Tim, I appreciate it.

Thanks Carl! Thanks Supernurd Thanks Jim! Thanks David! Thanks Daniel!

Man that thing is sharp! nice details too!

Thanks guys! It's been a while since I had time to work on this & take pictures but I did manage to get a few things done. The chassis is almost complete and the body is painted. I'm going for a Race of Gentlemen look.

Here is what I've been working on lately. Putting floors in my 70 Charger, putting power steering in the 60 f100, getting the 23 T running & driving after sitting for a few years, the 49 F1 needs EVERYTHING, I have to build a speedster body for the 26 T and just bought a full front end rebuild kit for the 79 Ranchero. And I wonder why I don't have time for building models...

My father's friend dropped these off for me. Old builds from when he was a kid.

Looks great, I'll be buying a few! I love the power takeoff & chain drive winch detail.

Great build! Really nice job on the weathering, it's hard to believe this was your first time doing it.??

Thanks Samuel, I appreciate it.

Thanks Carl, I built this one from the new AMT 72 Chevy Coca Cola issue.

My Father's 60 we've been working on. We just got done putting power steering in it yesterday.

Thanks Bill. Thanks Gustavo!

Thanks Doyle! The paint is Rustoleum American Accents Nutmeg Satin straight out of the can. I wasn't sure about it at first but it grew on me.

This is your first time doing this kind of weathering? Great job! If you sanded through some of the red oxide just decant a little, thin it and brush it on the bare spots, that's what I do. Keep up the great work!

That turned out great! I love the front belt drive too. Now all you need is a buzz saw and belt for it. These are my favorite types of builds, not worrying about paint, scratch building some parts, trying something new and most of all having fun! Thanks for sharing.

Hey Ken, thanks. I started with the new reissue AMT 72 Chevy Coca Cola kit. I should have mentioned it in the description but I was lazy & didn't feel like typing.?? Thanks Brian, I appreciate it.

I found some pics of my favorite Doodlebug build.

This one reminds me of your build.
