    Beautiful model!

    oops, found a misprint! That doesn't look like a 190E in the top photo, looks more like a Volvo to me?

    Thanks @Casey. That is a good thread with some other good linked threads in there. Might have to pick up this version when it comes out.

    Is this the better of the 69 Camaro kits? I’ve never built one but would like to add one to the stash!

    Great color combo! Looks awesome

    Looks good. I traded this kit, but it looked really fun. Might have to find another..
  7. Rusty92
    Thank you! Sometimes it’s hard to remember that less is more.

    Off to a good start. I am looking at buying an S10 for my next vehicle, I've always liked them!!

    More painting/weathering completed on the chassis, interior, and wheels tonight. I'm gonna sleep on the interior and see if I want to apply some more black wash to soften out the weathering effects a bit more. I like it, but think it could be subdued a bit more. What do you all think?

    Beautiful car!

    Yes they are getting pricey. I picked this kit up 2 years ago for $50. They wanted $75 but came down on price pretty quickly! Thank you! I’m going to get back at it tonight. It’s been a fun kit to build.

    Cool build. I have the 2wd version of the D50 that I’d like to build this year.

    I also picked up one of these for $10 about 2 years ago. It’s missing some parts and the decals are rough but I couldn’t pass it up for the price and how obscure it was.

    Great work so far.
  15. Rusty92
    Can’t wait to see this!

    Nice entry for the BRBO.
  17. Rusty92
    Will be nice to see one of these built.
  18. Rusty92
    Looking good, will be a looker for sure when completed!

    Great color! Very clean model as well! I’d say 2022 is off to a great start!

    In an effort to keep thinning the stash and trying to produce one model a month, I started this relatively simple kit. The fit and finish of parts are great, really easy to assemble. As of this morning I only had parts in primer and some with a first coat of paint. I will just be doing a box stock build with light weathering. Here are all the parts assembled so far. Here is the chassis which is almost complete. I need to add the exhaust and weather the shock mounts and front steering assembly as well as some other minor details. Here it is all test fitted. Stance checks out okay. I'm excited to see it finished. Will be applying some weathering techniques to the body within the coming days. It already has some "battle scars" showing through the paint. I wanted some rough spots on the paint, came out good.

    Got a little bench time today but no photos. I think I finally got the hood done, at least super close. It fits pretty good and the large gaps are filled.. do your best, paint the rest as they say. I puttied the ladder rack and prepped some small parts for primer. I need to be thinking about motor mounts for the Cummins. Shouldn’t be too hard to fabricate. I purchased some 3/16 brass tube. It scales out to 4.69” in 1:1 scale. This will be used to fabricate a ~5” exhaust for the kit. I’ve practiced on a couple pieces and if the bends are tight I think I can get it to fit nicely with 1 piece. If not, I’ll solder a couple pieces together.

    I went to a club meeting today and walked away with some swag. I won the 36 Ford in the kit raffle. The other two I bought.
  23. Rusty92
    I was able to get some primer on the frame, engine, and cab this morning. The cab will still need a bit more clean up before I even think about painting.

    Interesting thread. I have a 1961 190D that is pretty roached out. I always wanted to do something wild with it.
  25. Rusty92
    Hey Dan I did as a matter of fact. Just finished setting it up tonight! I'm hoping to hit the ground running tomorrow and get some primer on the rig.
