Nice woodgrain on the footrest. This looks to be a very delicate but very nicely cast kit.

Check out the “what did you accomplish today” thread in the general section. Someone just made a nice one.

It looks just fine by my standards. Nice job!?

Beautiful work! I have nothing to contribute but my praise.?

The real bumper probably wouldn’t be any thicker than 1/4” plate which would be .010” in 1/25 scale. ( 0.250” divided by 25 = 0.010”) then it would probably be covered with a sheet of at least 1/4” thick rubber, or more likely conveyor belting? This is so that when push-starting a vehicle the tow truck will not scratch or otherwise damage the bumper of the vehicle being pushed. I would personally upscale the actual bumper to at least .020” styrene or even .030”....it will not look out of scale in my opinion.

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.
