Finished a trade with Zen, great trader and would trade again, thanks!

Another trade with Sam I Am, great guy to trade with and would trade anytime, thanks again!

Just finished up a trade with Modlbldr, perfect trade! Thanks Tom!

Those are 2 cool little models! I have these and wondered what they would look like built and they look really good!

Very cool! Also one of my favorite funny cars, look awesome!

Beautiful build! Great color choices and excellent pictures!

Really sharp! Love the color!

Thanks for the comments everyone! Bill, good idea, I never thought about it but that would make the wheels much better looking, also looking at the photos I forgot to paint the turn signals which I think had clear lenses with an amber bulb and it looks like I forgot to do the FORD on the hood. Pictures can really show things I miss!!!!

Very nice build! I really like the custom front end along with a great color scheme!

I just finished this up last night, I got this in a trade with a member here, it had been painted and stripped so I originally painted it a red metallic but it came out bad and I didn’t like the color too well so I had this green that I don’t remember what it was or where I got it. I sprayed it over a dark grey primer and liked the way it looked so I cleared it and was happy with the color. I painted the interior black and did a little bare metal foil and some detail painting and a set of mags and called it done! Comments welcome and thanks for looking!

I finished this up a few days ago, I got this kit at our model club auction for $6, it was partially built and painted. The paint was a very dull green metallic that was really bland looking, almost looked like olive drab! The windows were glued in with some glue marks all around the edge. The chassis, engine and interior were painted all pretty nice. I got the windows out and polished them and they look ok. I thought I would try some new clear that I got and sprayed it thru my airbrush and this is how it came out! I think it looks pretty good, it really darkened the color but I like it! I used a set of Fireball modelworks dog dish hubcaps and rims and some AMT parts pack tires, I like the look these wheels give it! Comments and always welcome! Thanks for looking!

Very cool!

Thanks for the comments, I had been looking for a Gordini for a couple of years ( a fairly reasonable one) I finally scored it a few weeks ago and am thinking of making it as a companion to this!

Tom, thanks for the info, this had the interior. Back then I can’t imagine the boxed version was that expensive, I think it’s funny they wanted to do a cheaper kit! I just checked the bag kit does not have an interior!

That is awesome! Now I need another builder! What chassis did you use?

It would be cool if these molds were around and usable, I have seen a resin one that is “gasser” style that looks cool! Man it would be nice to get a case of these for $10 now!

Thanks for the comments guys! Misha the sunroof is stock to the kit. I got this in a trade on the forum here, it was in really good shape! I was curious because this has what I think is acetone glass that has shrunk and yellowed, a few weeks ago I picked up another of these unbuilt in a bag so I assume that’s pretty old! The bag is sealed but there is no glass in it, I guess it didn’t come with it so this build could possibly be a promo?

Hi all, this is the 1/24 Hubley kit of the Renault Dauphine. Built curbside style with no real modification other than wheels and lowered some and a couple things added in the rather plane interior. This was a lot of fun! Let me know what you guys think, comments always welcome!

Neat box! I am surprised the tooling survived in useable condition, wonder if it was reissued before. Thanks for the info!

I almost got the stage coach and might go back for it , do you know the origins of this kit? I really don’t ever remember seeing it!

I saw this thread the other day and decided to stop on my way home from work, the Ollies near me had the 1/8 scale Lindberg T bucket for $50, I picked it up cause I didn’t think that was to bad, they also had the CuttySark and a 1/16-ish stage coach with horses and a confederate and union set of mounted soldiers. Both of these were a larger scale, I don’t remember the stage Coach or the civil war kits but they didn’t look bad!

Just finished 2 great trades with Phirewriter and SamIam, both great guys and would trade with anytime! Thanks!

Great looking model! Love the color!

WOW! That is beautiful!! How did you get such fine pinstripes on the hood?

Very nice looking! Great job!
