2024 Cannonball Run Restomods Build Thread
Mattilacken replied to White Rabbit's topic in Community Builds
I went ahead and made a cad model of the part I had and we will se how it end up when printed -
I have a good file for a LS3 intake, and I could ad in the text and lines to make it look like that one if that would be close enough, and then you have an STL file to print. I would need a top view of the intake if that would work.

Welcome back sir! Will be looking forward to seeing your builds.

This is my long term project and I make this thread partly to remember my plan and ideas. The Plan has always been inspired by the Roadkill Muscle Truck, 2wd nice stance and a nice looking engine with a manual gearbox. some parts have always bugged me about this kit.. or most of it. So most parts will be modified or replaced.. to start with wheels and tires, engine and gearbox, rear axle, tailgate, bumpers all around, and the interior. Hum, easier to say what’s left. The body and frame is still there, parts of it? the front bumper is designed for my old K5 blazer but I printed it to see if it would fit this build. Engine is my version of a LS3 found on Grabcad with T56. Rear axle is a Ford 9 inch. I also have a firebird in pieces that where suppose to donor parts but it most likely won’t do so. front axle is my own design based on a c5 layout. The rear axle might also get a 4link since the leaf springs are not that good looking and hard to adjust to get the right ride height. Second engine in the pics are a l79 that used to be my engine of choice.

I do have most of those parts to spare since I won’t be using most of it on my build, I have made a 2wd conversion with corvette c5 A-arms and different spindle and a 9 inch rear axle. I do have a resin grill from a 79 as well so it looks more like the 1:1 I would like to build it to look as a 1:1 as possible. Will be using a carb LS or the l59.. most likely LS. only things I would not give up is door handles and the steps. only problem might be shipping since you seem to be state side.

2024 Cannonball Run Restomods Build Thread
Mattilacken replied to White Rabbit's topic in Community Builds
Jade some progress.. body is in primer as are many parts, the body need some more sanding before final color. Seats are getting prepped and have gotten mounting rails. ? engine is also coming together and next is wiring. I hit a round bump though, I am missing one of the black (still wite) rubber dampers or what they are called. So what to do? -
You are welcome ?

Sweet build mate! that master culinder came out great! Will be folowing! -
Cool! I know those have been all over the world! Here the military had a ton of them, no wonder since they were built for them, many company’s still use them here for maintenance in the backcountry. I live in the Swedish Lapland above the arctic circle. I have been to Christchurch back in 2002 when it was world fire fighter games there, we drove from Auckland to CH. We ent jeetboat riding as well in CH, it was a great little town and I found such good street food on main street I think, it was lamb meet in bread with a garlic sauce, best street food I have ever had! To bad about the quakes that hit. ?

Aren’t they! My onkel used to be a Major, squadron leader at that base before he retired. that is a cool looking tank for sure! I have seen that tank but not the kit I think. Might be next tank build. Next 1\35 build would be a military suv like a Humvee or such so I can get the scale in. Btw i have some colleagues working on CV90 as consultants or I get the MB Gwagen since Swedish army have those.. and I definitely need to get one of these, my dads work used to have one. https://www.modellhobby.se/sv/markfordon/75466-takom-bandvagn-hagglunds-bv-206s-med-interior-takom2083.html Thank you Thanks! Or as the driver for these would say, tanks!
