1982 Dodge Street Van
Leica007 replied to mrmike's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Michael, pm recv'd. Sent the window last mon/tue 1st class regular mail. USPS did this to me before. i have another, will send it priority mail so we have a tracking number. Lei -
Apologies for not finishing this until now. A few more of the WIP and the completed van in under glass. I got some figures from The fifth element on ebay, wanted something to spice up the hot tub. Here is the one I used for the van Since the sunroof is frame-less, I used stripped wire tubing to create the seal under the window. I added a CB antenna to the mirror in the above photo. In keeping with the diamond decor I used a cookie tray for the rear glass and used a red marker to simulate the strips between the panes. Added rails, drink tray with coke cans and rear courtesy light to the bed area. I'll post the finished van pics tomorrow in the under glass category. Glad to answer any questions and appreciate any comments. Thanks for looking.

I think the cross ram better matches the larger body and takes advantage of the open wheel wells. Reeks of hi performance.

All 4 look great, the 40 Coupe looks like an excellent replication of a 1:1 car. Would like to see more pics of It.

Thanks Joe, checked out the link and bookmarked it.

.Need the car set, the front bumper has a slight V in the middle. It's for a 33 Willys coupe.

Great looking build, you did beautiful work. Where did you get the decals made, I've been wanting to do something similar for my small town PD?

Super clean and great detailing. Really appreciate your work.

1991 Mercury Cougar Bostonian Edition

Really nice, after seeing both your builds I think I'd like to try this kit. -
You did a great job on the molding ( a lot of work) and the result was worth the effort. I had a 72 XR7 and did a build of it and it was a nice riding car.

Here's a tip for radiator hoses t.\hat I use a lot. You know those strechy black cords that come on shoes and other things; they're flexible, look ribbed, come in different diameters, and they are free. If you dip in glue/super glue right after cutting, they don't fray. Plus if you use super glue they attach in seconds. Looking forward to seeing more. -
