I'm using the radiator support from the Monogram 69 GTO. its 1/24 but a more accurate shape for a Pontiac than the Olds piece. Added some styrene to the undersides of the fenders as well.

38 Ford custom

thanks, yes, the manifold came with the kit. It was the two in one version with the surfboard and wood side panels. -
Finally finished this up. Revell 37/38 Ford, used the chopped top cab from Jimmy Flintstone. Everything else was out of the box.

Nice job, that paint looks flawless. I love that color combo.
-
This is a cool build. I love air cooled 911s.
-
Very nice job, on a cool unique kit!
-
I wanted to stretch the back of the trunk down a bit, to look more like the real car. this will also give a little more room for the Judge decal that goes there.
-
I thought the spoiler I was making was too small, so I scratch built a larger one.
-
I found a built up kit for $5 at a swap meet a few years ago. stripped the paint off and its been sitting ever since.
-
Spoiler is the Hurst Olds piece. I cut the ends off and made them from sheet styrene to replicate the Judge spoiler.

I picked up this resin TH400, and its very nice, but looks too large, and doesn't fit in the chassis and tunnel. I am going to use the th400 from the 72 Chevy pickup. The engine is from the Revell 69 Firebird.

I am going to replicate a car my uncle owned. 1970 GTO Judge, 400 auto, Carousel Red. I am using the AMT 69 Hurst Olds for the chassis and a few other parts. It comes with the auto console and shifter, which should work well.
-
Not a resin, I cut the roof off and used the wind shield and boot from the revell 69 camaro.

Pontiac Autumn Bronze

Thanks for the compliments. It felt good just to finish it up. I had that engine from the MPC kit about 20 years ago, and built it before I had anything to put in, just because I thought it was neat. Turned out really nice with some detailing!

Finally got this finished. It fought me the whole way. I painted it twice, applied the decals twice, the whitewalls twice. I like the way it turned out, its good from a distance, but i am not happy with the wheels and tires. I love the engine bay, though. Also very happy with the interior, its one of my best.
-
This is a super cool build, I am enjoying watching it come together.
-
Does anyone make decals to replicate these cars? I would like to replicate one of these. Hopefully there is a decal set out there somewhere.
-
I really dig that Ford van. Nice job on a totally oddball subject.
-
This car is nearing completion but I can't quite get it to fit together right. The front of the chassis is sticking out the bottom. not level like it should be.
-
This is finally coming together. It's been difficult though. The hood was more difficult than it should have been, had to paint it twice, decals laid nice, then half of them peeled off when I masked it to repaint a spot. the decals are part of the stock decals, and part of the Keith Marks decals.
