Ford Raptor Snap Kit
Beans replied to Beans's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Thank you again everybody. I really appreciate all the compliments. I can definitely say that this is one of those builds that was really fun to do. All those usual little moments of frustration never happened with this one. Everything fit and everything worked out. -
Very cool! I love these obscure 80s kits. Great job.

AMT '67 Mustang Fastback-Now in Under Glass Section
Beans replied to mustang1989's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Love following this build. I'm in the process of doing a 1964.5 mustang and several times have reviewed your work and then gone back and re-did something or added something. Thanks for the continual inspiration. -
Great start. Definitely following this one. Dont' think I've ever seen a body molded in that green. And the box art!! Wonder if the Japanese at the time thought that was a typical day for the San Diego County Sheriffs.

Looks great!! You did a really good job on it. Gotta love a Mustang!

2022 Cannonball Group Build theme suggestion thread
Beans replied to Fat Brian's topic in Community Builds
Oh, I want in on this one. Birth year: Definitely works out great for me. Lots of options from 1970. Just have to find one that hasn't already been done to death. Wagon: This is a close second for me. Always a fan of wagons. Just wonder if there is enough variety for everyone involved. -
My 2010. Bought it used a couple of years ago with only 40K miles. Haven't seen another factory Sunset Gold yet.

What Did You Accomplish Today? (Model Car Work)
Beans replied to Snake45's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Got the gluebomb interior mostly taken apart. As a bonus I discovered a mosquito encased in the old glue under the seats that I have been able to extract DNA from so I can clone some dinosaurs. just kidding about the mosquito.... -
That PBR is a great kit!! Wish I remembered what happened to that one...

Ford Raptor Snap Kit
Beans replied to Beans's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Thanks all!! Overall it was a fun build. It's weird that everything just kind of worked out. I'm going to have to get a few more snap kits to break from a stressing build. -
What did you see on the road today?
Beans replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Saw these two. The first one is for sale, although I couldn't bring myself to look and see how much. This one was had a whole side painted in a Mario Brothers theme. I was only able to get a through the windshield picture of the back. No idea what the passenger side looked like... -
Completed this quick fun kit with no real issues or complaints. I tried some things that I knew could lead to total failure, especially in the painting department but everything seemed to work out pretty well. As with my current build theme, I created this one to replicate another vehicle from the Supernatural TV show. For the show fans, this is the personal vehicle of Sheriff Donna Hanscum. Overall I made some very minor changes/additions to the kit to replicate the show version. They must not have had a license from Ford because the show creators have big F O R D on the grill covered and all other emblems blacked out...so I did the same. -Created the license plates -Created a bed cover -scratch built the winch and cable -Wheels are from a Jeep Rubicon kit -added seat belts (but you can't see them) -Painted with Duplicolor Black rattle can -Cleared with Krylon Triple-Thick Crystal Clear Glaze rattle can(used on a whim, never used before and honestly the idea of puting Krylon over Duplicolor would have made me cringe if someone else had said it). -Grey accents are craft paint. It could stand some polishing which I may do at some point. For now though it has a nice home next the previously completed Impala and Gremlin.

My Summer driver.... finally
Beans replied to Sledsel's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Not so much a summer only, but definitely not a full time driver...actually in the process of updating the brakes now. -
AMT '75 Gremlin - next of the Supernatural show builds.
Beans replied to Beans's topic in WIP: Model Cars
and what's next on my weird quest to do as many of the cars from the show Supernatural as possible...... -
AMT '75 Gremlin - next of the Supernatural show builds.
Beans replied to Beans's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Fiiiiiiiiiinaly got the black decals. I am pretty much calling this one done. I do still need to add the front turn signals (which I actually totally forgot about). Then will put up a post in the completed section. Otherwise, here she is as she sits: -
My local Ollie's still has a decent amount of the last offerings. Gremlins, Sciroccos, Chrysler 300s, and the big rigs.

Chevelle knowledge needed '70 to '71
Beans replied to Beans's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Great. Thanks. I've put the Chevelle project on the back burner for now. But getting close to wanting to jump back into it. -

Thanks for this. Looks pretty much like my best bet. -
AMT '75 Gremlin - next of the Supernatural show builds.
Beans replied to Beans's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Thank you. Overall not my favorite build but I enjoyed it. The kit wasn't too bad. I ended up sanding the front push bumper things off and made new headlights that I am happy with. Never did get the correct engine, so there is currently nothing under the hood... Will be sure to put up the completed photos when I do get around to finishing this. -

Beans replied to Beans's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Here is where the gremlin sits. Need black stripes for the side. Only red ones in the kit. Have some coming. Other than that and the side turn signals, she pretty much there. -
