  1. This might be my oldest surviving build. Some years ago the front bumper was fixed/reattached. Other than that it’s been unchanged since being built 20+ years ago. Paint is Boyd black and blue pearl with a lime gold metal flake chassis and motor. Mostly box stock with lowered suspension and shaved door handles.
  2. That thing came out great. Well executed build of a very cool car.
  3. Killer! Nice work.
  4. Really digging this, nice work!
  5. This thing is looking awesome! Nice work and cool subject. Looking forward to following along.
  6. Awesome work, thanks for sharing!
  7. Understated and tasteful, love it.
  8. Love the concept and the outcome. Might have to dig through the parts box and see what I can come up with.
  9. Love an odd ball gasser! Pretty rad you kept the left hand drive. Also like that the gas tank is tucked under the hood. Nice work.
  10. Spot on! Dig the vent windows. Cool box art worth replicating.
  11. Killer build, love the sliding side "glass". Nice work!
  12. That came out great! I'd would love to see some pictures of the chassis work.
  13. I may be wrong and someone may have already mentioned this but it was my understanding that the AWD system was similar to what was used on Astro vans of the time.
  14. I like where this is going.
  15. This is awesome! Makes me want to build a frame for my Pontiac. Nice work!
  16. Lucked out and was able to get some work done while it was raining. The chassis is finished with the exception of some final weathering. I plan on remaking the grill inserts when I drill out the bumpers. Once that's sorted I should be ready for paint.
  17. Been working on my 1:1 Project so this has taken a bit of a back seat but I was able to get a bit of work done the other night. Have the suspension glued in place. Wish I didn't glue the wheels on since they're not weathered yet. Need to do a bit more body work including cutting a passage for the 180° headers to dump out. I was able to locate some stock bumpers that I'll be attempting to remove the bumper strip and add the holes that would leave on a 1:1 bumper from this era. Thanks for looking.
  18. These little details make a world of difference!
  19. Inching closer to completion. Made a cover to shield the driver from the exhaust since the original is nowhere to be found. Used some Quinta rivets to add some much needed detail. Then hit the chassis with some paint. Now to start final assembly and weathering.?
