bluestringer

Nice work. Love the color.

Thanks. Thank you.

Worked on the trim. I used foil on the bottom trim and it worked out ok. But when I tried it on the windows it would not stick. So I gave up and used a silver sharpie, but with my shaky hands I didn't do a very good job.

Thanks. Thanks Thanks. I've had it in my stash for a while now. Been avoiding it because of the trim work, but I'm going to give the foil another try. Thank you.

Thanks Thanks.

I liked the Createx Blue Pearl that I put on the 34 Ford hot rod so much I decided to put it on a 69 Camaro Z28.

Very nice. Excellent work.

Excellent. Nice work.

Thank you. Thanks Bob. Thanks. Thank you. Thank you.

My first time deviating from a OOB build. Didn't know how this contraption was going to turn out. I guess it's ok, but I know it was fun. I widened the rear axle housing to get the wide tires on without them rubbing the bed, I cut the metal axle in half using it on each side. Wheels will not roll, but that's ok by me. The instructions alluded to a drag version that's similiar, but I wanted a street rod so went with the wide street tires from the 67 Chevelle Pro Street kit. I had to do some building up on the inside wheels to make them fit. I did use the custom engine from the kit, just dechromed the block and intake. I had to make a rod for the front to mount the radiator, this caused it to be too far forward for the hood to work, which I was going to use the top part of the hood without the sides but I am ok like it is. All comments welcome.

That's looking great Bob.

The closest hobby shop to me is 70 miles away. Wish I had one local. Hobby Lobby is 35 miles away, but that's where I get most of my stuff. I have ordered some stuff from ebay.

Almost done. I'll have it under glass in a couple days.

MegaHobby has it in stock. https://www.megahobby.com/products/1951-henry-j-gasser-drag-car-1-25-revell.html?utm_source=scalemates&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=marketplace

Thanks Bob. It may not come out looking too good, but it's fun doing these mods.

Looking forward to seeing your pro street Ford truck Bob. Just the little modding I'm doing on the 34 Ford pickup has got me itching to try more. It is fun. I'm following your build and it's already gave me ideas on doing a pro street mod on a 65 Chevy stepside.

Now to figure out how to mount the radiator and some headlights on this contraption...........

Thanks Bob. It's Createx Pearl Blue.

Paint is on..........

Looking good. Nice work. I built this kit a couple months ago, it's a nice kit.

A gasser would be cool.

This is looking good Bob. I like the stock engine also. I airbrushed Testors enamels back a long time ago, never got good results, but I was inexperienced and was using one of those Testors 10 dollar AB. I should give it another try.

Hoping to get this contraption painted tomorrow or Saturday.

Thanks Bob. Hope it can stand the torque of that V8. ?

Rear end is ready for those big meats. I was hoping to get the body painted today, but the weather is not cooperating, rainy and humid. Will not get much done the rest of the week, got a colonoscopy scheduled for Thursday and the prep starts tomorrow. ☹️
