1975 Datsun Pickup (1/25)

Funny enough the Goodyear came that way from the box, although I could lie to you and say that I trained on some mountain top to hand paint Goodyear on the tires. -

Although the majority being completely different from my original intentions, the truck is coming along fairly well. -
lol this is cool seeing this kit being done! I did one just like this, to go along with my Malco Gasser Mustang. I painted both of them to match each other, sadly they were both stolen. I just hope that they are still together. Good to see someone doing the exact kit i did but a lot nicer then mine!

Iv been thinking of something new and interesting to do for this kit, and I think I found it. Somewhere in the "tips and tricks" I found a post where someone used tube aluminum and wrapped solder around it to make a turbo. So that's what I eventually did. I also drilled a hole into the fender for a neat exit for the exhaust. -

It's just currently sitting together right now. I'm thinking of lowering it a little more and giving it a little more of a rake. -

Im considering making a supercharger (sorta like a belt driven turbo) for the engine here, got the parts to do it but im not totally sure i want to do it -
Then to get back on track, here is a Bond Minicar. Strange due to the engine and the front wheel turns together.

Through glass? What?

I guess that not everything here is exactly a car, I guess I feel safe to share a backyard project of mine... And yes it's a snowblower welded to a mini bike, with a bicycle wheel mounted on the front. Maybe one day it could pass safety...
