  1. I got the exhaust paint and weathered I also biult a steering stabilizer. I am going to use the bumper from the montero kit.
  2. What about this? it is a v24 with 12 871 blowers and on N20 making over 3,000 HP.
  3. I got the paint on it today. It still needs some tuchups and stuff here and there.
  4. As they say there’s no replacement for displacement.
  5. Thanks guys. I biult the turbos today and also found a set of rims that I like.
  6. Thanks. The tires are from a tamiya Mitsubishi montero. It comes with 5 tires.
  7. Thanks. I haven’t got much done lately except for building the exhaust and picking a colour. I will be doing something close to the Mohave tan.
  8. It is an amt ford phantom van with a turbocharged 460. The paint will be white and rusty with FREE CANDY on the side. Comments welcome
  9. You just put it in a big box and send it to me. Then you don’t have to worry about it.
  10. It is a revell 1991 Ford dually that I extended into a crew cab and the front end is from an amt Ford LN 8000 and I will be using a motor from an amt white freightliner
  11. Here’s an update. I found a set of 37” yokahama mud digger tires. And the engine and frame are painted.
  12. I think here would be good for all the updates. I do have an on the work bench thing going for my truck to though.
  13. I officially changed it.
  14. I got two humbodt strong stickers today to support the humboldt broncos hockey team in Saskatchewan that had a horrible bus crash.
  15. I was thinking the same thing. it is the round 2.
  16. Today I got an amt vanishing point challenge and I opened the box and found that there was a blower intake manifold, blower belt and a hood with a hole cut out for the blower but there was NO BLOWER. Is there something that I’m missing or was it a mistake by AMT? It’s not like I bought the kit just for the blower but why would the put all the parts for it in there? another thing that I found was that it came with a 6pack manifold and 6pack air cleaner stickers but no carbs and I was planning on using the 6pack setup.
  17. Today I painted and weathered the frame and painted the motor. I still need to weather the valve covers and air cleaner. I want the truck to look like it was just off-roading so I used some tamiya diorama texture paint.
  18. The orange one is from the revell mongoose 57 Chevy funny car.
  19. Thanks. I mocked up the 390 with a homemade air cleaner, short headers from a revell mustang and 427 valve covers. The only problem is that the air cleaner is a little tall and hits the hood so I will make some shims so the hood will close more like this. I think the unaligned hood will help give it the old farm truck look.
  20. I never notice that they had the same mirrors. It would be cool if the new 4x4 versionof the kit came with mirrors like them. I will be used a set of west coast mirrors on this truck though. I found a set of tires that I’m going to use. They are Yokohama mid diggers that are about 37 scale inches tall.
  21. I will be building a moebius 1971 Ford that I converted to an F-250 4x4. My truck will be affordable off-roader (something a teenage like myself could afford and have some fun with)
  22. Here is a picture of the underside of the revell 1966 fleetside.
  23. I am thinking about trying resin casting and would like to know if I could cast parts from model kits like engines, tires, rims, seats, axles and other small things? I am wondering this because I don’t want to do anything illegal. (I would only cast them for my own personal use and would not sell them)
