  1. I can buff that out! I know where the door is......................🙄
  2. Bringsmart Micro Geared Motor DC 12V 200rpmWith Bracket Centric Ouput Shaft Gear Motor 37mm Diameter Gearbox Large Torque Reduction Motor - Amazon.com Amazon.com: Spray Can Paint Shaker Mixer - Drill Powered Paint Shaker Electric Paint Shaker Miniature Spray Paint Shaker Paint Can Shaker Electric Rattle Can Shaker Electric Paint Shaker Without Handle : Tools & Home Improvement For those that want to make something like this, here is the links to the part i got at Amazon. You will also need a power supply, small SPST switch and a female barrel plug to plug the power supply into The shaker comes with a 1/4" hex that is designed to mount in the chuck of a cordless drill that will need to be turned down on one end to 6 MM to match the shaft on the motor and a connecting collar. I made the connecting collar but those can be found on Amazon. It will need a strong and sturdy base to clamp to because it vibrates a lot in use
  3. This is something i put together for part found on Amazon Shaking spray cans has always been a thorn in my model building side The shaker and motor set me back about $60 but its saves my old man hands from having to manualy shake a can for 3 to 5 minuets For new purchase cans i give them 5 minuets, then 3 minuets for every other times i use them
  4. Is that Big Foot thumbing for a ride on the right side of the truck?
  5. I would wonder if R2 could use the existing C series Ford molds and just have a beverage body tooled up. New kit without the expense of a totally new tool. scratch building the body wouldn't be out of the question either.
  6. Beverage trailer like one i have all ready scratched out or a vintage beverage truck
  7. What in the world is that thing in the sky??
  8. 1963 Nova SS. 6 cyl power glyde purchased in 76 for $125 Interior was near mint but the body had a crashed rear drivers side quarter panel Of course, in true gotta mod it fashion i put a 283 in it but alas the project never got finished as a Female caught my fancy and ended up selling it. Don't have a picture of it but this is the color. Even had the orginal hubcaps which i discarded 😞
  9. Excellent work. I'm currently working on that kit and whole heartedly agree the hair is difficult to get right. My version is not a snap Tite but is going together well except that i couldn't get the blond hair color right
  10. Heres the end of the Chevy II Nomad Enjoy and thanks for lookin Made the decal to hide a sand through on the door The body work and paint could have been better Sorry for the poor quality photos
  11. Picked mine up today from my local guy Chriss Includes two instruction sheet with some color photos of the model
  12. Found this wile looking for examples of the wagon Now that i have another body might give this one a try
  13. Really don't know where the engine or tires and rims came out of as i found them in my parts stash. The hood scoop is from the 66 Nova Pro Street kit. The engine is likely a mashup of several kits because the intake and valve cover don't fit real good and the oil pan has a cut out that probably let an axel go through
  14. The 6 was too long i would have had to remove some of the firewall It was a ebay buy and the add didn't say what kit it came out of, i think it was the 60 chevy truck with the go kart kit Should have bought the engine that was in the 63-nova wagon with trailer kit
