Wow, what an imagination! Just to be able to conceive of some of these in your mind is creative genius. Then top that with the skills required to create a rendering that someone else can see??

Wow, this is looking really nice. It is a kit you can really have fun with. Looking forward to seeing the paint finished!?

Thanks all of You for the nice comments! Tom...I’m still working on the Jeeps. Ken...I re-made the gage pod from styrene and printed the gage faces. The wood is veneer for counter edging. Carl...I had to paint the grill shell since a chunk of chrome peeled off so I figured why not do the scoop too.

Looking good! Just the right amount of chop.?

Super nice job on this one. When I first scrolled through the pics without reading the text, I thought the blue car was real for the first few. Well done and excellent photos!?

Just finished this one. Fun little kit! Box stock build except for added dash detail, plug wires, belt tensioner, and scratch built tail lights. Paint is Spaz Stix solid red and Testors clear laquer. Oops, forgot the exhaust tips!

I cringe when I hear the rattle of something substantially sized going up the vacuum hose and into the bag of oblivion. I would have to be missing something pretty precious before I would go sifting through the contents.

Post a pic of it...maybe it’s mine?

Neat looking project! I’m watching.?

Nice one! What size is that screen from MCG? It does not list any details on their site. Can you get more than one radiator out of it?

My Buddy’s dad had one of these trucks. One day myself and six friends were in my Chevy Belair when it broke down. He went and got his dad’s truck and we piled in...all 7 of us. ?

Interesting ideas. I agree with your thoughts on the Power Wagon, and those old wooden boats are indeed a thing of beauty!

That engine is a beauty!?

I like the colour! Ooh that is frosty, I hope your garage is heated. It’s only -33C here now...-47 with windchill.?

We have voice mail on the land line and our cell phones. If we don’t recognize the number, we don’t answer. If it’s important they will leave a message. Most unknown callers don’t.

That is an excellent job! I wouldn’t have thought of painting it that brightly...but it works very well! The engine is nicely detailed and your foil job is excellent also.

Nicely done Ray...I like it!

Cool. I have this kit and will be watching! The broken A pillar should be an easy fix...depends how bad the distortion is on the rest of it? Good luck.

And since I have a couple of cast rejects, I am playing with the Idea of making a stretched cab version.?

I cast the grill and then opened it up and modified it to the later 3-bar style.

I added some cab mounts to the floor pan and made a new mold for it. I’ve decided to use the Revell Jeep Honcho frame instead of the cut down GMC frame...it is already 114” wheelbase and it just seems to fit better. Jeep Honcho: GMC: Since I would have to move all the mounts and get rid of the spare tire and fuel tank, I figured I would make a copy of the frame and still be able to build the Honcho sometime.

I used the super fine Milliput on my Willys cab. I did a test with it, Tamiya and JB weld. Note:The JB weld I used was the 5 minute type which is NOT what everyone on here recommends, and it never did harden completely. All three adhered very well to the metal. The Tamiya was a little stiffer and harder to mix than the Milliput and took a little longer to fully harden. The Milliput and Tamiya are now rock hard, but file and sand nicely. i would recommend either one. You could also drill a small hole at the tip of the fin and glue in a short piece of wire (guitar string would work good) to give the patch something to cling to.

Nah, some decals and clearcoat maybe? ?

Looking good. This is my favourite version of the Dart body. Good Luck with her!

Nice! Just the right amount of lift, and the paint and decals are super.
