This is my newest `32.... The old AMT, the one thats red on the box. Both the body and the fenders were warped, so I built it fenderless, and I sectioned the body.... Its just a temporary paint job, there are some minor issues on the body I have to fix, but it will be white again 🙂

Well, I made mine into a coupe, grafting the `67 GTO roof and most of the rear deck, unto a Monkees mobile body 🙂

Hi guys This is Monograms Ford Ranger pick up truck. When I was a kid I built the red one, and at some point I added a light bar from a police cruiser. I imagined the truck as a sheriff truck. That idea stuck in my head ever since, and not long ago, I finally decided it was time to build it in a proper way. I am the kind of modelbuilder that build for myself, I build for fun, I build how I like to build it, and I dont care if its realistic, correct or whatever. The color scheme is inspired from old movies where the officers uniforms often were brown/tan. I added some sheriff decals from a Johan kit, and the lightbar is actually THE lightbar, I put on my red Ranger, so many years ago. I just had to widen it a bit, and restore a bit also. So there you have it. The Ranger pick up Sheriffs truck I got the idea for, so many years ago. This time built with better skills than back then, and looking more like a real sheriffs truck 🙂

Yeah, I know the history of the kit, it has been around for a long time. I do love the Monogram funny cars, and I do love the new editions also.... I think its a cool idea to make it into a firechief car, it will look nice next to the Cop Out. I have it also in the Snake/Mongoose combo....

Does anyone knows anything about this kit? Was`nt it supposed to be out now?

Thank you buddy 🙂 Og yes, I know about the paintjobs on the models. I have a couple also just laying around, because I cant decide for the paintjob 😅

Well, it probably has to be my Monogram `36 Ford coupe 😃

Here`s my Monogram `71 Satellite. I tried to build it in the old 70`ties street machine style. I raised the rear end, and used a set of Arii wheels/tires. I mounted a tunnelram on the engine, I think it was a tunnel ram from one of my Monogram `66 Malibu SS, the black high rider. Carbs are 3D printed by a friend of mine, and velocity stacks from the Monogram `70 GTX. The steering wheel was also 3D printed. The paint is Motip automotive spray cans, with Motip clear coat on top. Unfortunately the decals did curl a bit on the edges after clearcoat, but they are old, and theres nothing I could do about it.... Anyway, I am very happy for the model, even though its by no means perfect 😃

Welcome 👋🙂

Thank you. Its beautiful 🙂

That is awesome. I love the color of the taxi. What paint is that?

Hi guys Does anyone have the Revell 1/8 scale L.A. Street chopper, and if so, might you be willing to copy or photograph the instructions for me? I need them for my build.... Thank you

That is one patriotic truck. Cool 👍😀

That is one slick El Camino 👍😀
