  1. Looking good Jeff! I'm working on one of these too.
  2. It's my understanding (from a couple guys in the know) that the location of the Uncertain-T was known but getting it out of the hands of the owner was the issue. Looks like the owner approached the Boeckmans, and that's how it was "found".
  3. Killer detail! Can't wait to see more. I've built several of these, and have another unbuilt one. The only thing stopping me is lack of shelf space for these big models!
  4. Nice! I love this kit, probably built it 10 times over the last 40 years. I have another one on deck I've been thinking about digging out.
  5. Lookin good!
  6. I love this because it's subtle. Unless you know Rivis one might not know what has been done. Really looks cool!
  7. Thanks fellas! Yeah the kit is a turd, but it was a good challenge and a reminder than you can polish a turd!
  8. A long shot, I know, since the part I need hasn't been produced since the 70's... The old monogram 34 Fords (Coupe or Cabriolet) had a full, 3 piece hood, and the side hoods had the stock louvers. This is not the same hood from the ZZ Top Eliminator kit. I need the hood top and both side hoods. Be happy to trade for something. Thanks for checking guys. See the hood on the model in the pic for reference.
  9. This kit was the subject of a YouTube Group build. It's chopped, sectioned, front wheel openings moved forward, and other custom touches. Tamiya maroon and clear on the roof, Testors Extreme Lacquer Gold and same brand clear on the body. 59 Chevy front bumper, 56 T-Bird hood scoop, Y block from same T Bird kit, Decals inspired by Dennis Lacy
  10. Wow! I think I need one of those. EDIT: You deserve a commission because I just went to FB and put down a deposit on one!
  11. Love it! Do you have any straight-on pictures of the front end? I want to see the headlight bar situation. I'm building a few 32s and want to get some ideas for the headlight bar.
  12. Thanks fellas! Body is in primer and looks really good. I think the rear portion could be widened to be more accurate, but I decided to live with it. It looks narrow from the back compared to a sedan and pics of Phaetons online.
  13. Looking good! I have one of these in my stash.
  14. Looks amazing!
  15. Killer! I've had a similar build in mind using Monogram 1/24 kits..
  16. Not to derail this thread, here’s my thread on a Revell 32 Phaeton conversion
  17. Really nice build! Cool to see this because I’ve been planning on my head how to build a Revell based 32 Vicky. The R&M body is cool! I’m currently building a Revell based Phaeton with the back half of an AMT body grafted on.
  18. Finally back on this one. Scratch built the interior behind the front seat, modified the top and a bunch of other subtle mods. Full explanation in the video. Thanks for looking!
  19. I really like those builds! I just finished a Monogram 53 Corvette and I sanded out the parting lines then polished the plastic and it looks amazing! The 57 Bird is looking good. Great builds!
  20. Nice! I was literally painting some tail lights with that color last night and thought to meself.. "That would be a cool body color"... Nice work!
  21. Thanks for the kind words fellas!
  22. Really nice! Is that based on the Flintstone 40 Merc Body?
  23. That VW land speed racer is mind blowing, and the Riv is just plain cool! Amazing vision and execution!
  24. I like them all, but especially dig the 37 Chevy and 32 Roadster. Nice builds!
