Excellent conversion! A very clean build. -
That is absolutely stunning! A great exercise in scratchbuilding. The color scheme is killer, too!

Amt California Hauler 359

That is a super clean, good looking build. I definitely could see that on the contest table! -
That is absolutely beautiful! I really love that green. I used it on a 56 Ford pickup, and it's probably my favorite build.

More Ford Fever

Great looking build! I love how you research your subject matter, to get the details exactly right. The tips on handling 3D printed parts are also most welcome! -
Yeah the outside was very crisp and pretty nice over all, but there was a "short" on one of the lower rear quarter panels. The inside however, was a whole different story. Lots of dremel work to get the interior tub and dash to fit properly. Not to mention the window areas all needed quite a bit of attention. You can definitely tell this was a "slush cast".

I'd love to see that!

I'm not sure what the acronym stands for, but it's clear tape with a design printed on it. It goes on like window tint. You separate the design from the clear backing sheet, and it's got an adhesive on it.

Thanks! Not sure about that though. I found this one on Etsy. I wonder why mine doesn't have the tailgate ribs on it?

AMT kit supplied hood & dash, Monogram Monte Carlo SS seats & Buick Grand National door panels, parts box console.

This is an old R M R Vacuum-Craft trans kit consisting of the body, interior "tub", and a bench seat which I did not use. Looks pretty good on a Revell 67 Chevelle chassis, right?

Very nice!

Very nice! The black & gold look great together.

Beautiful build! That's my favorite year of Corvette. I built the roadster in the same color scheme.

Model Clubs In Triad Area Of N.C.
ncbuckeye67 replied to ncbuckeye67's topic in Model Club News and Announcements
I live in Kernersville now, moving from Winston-Salem after my wife and I bought a house. We really need to wear name tags at these shows, Lol. You and I seem to keep missing each other. I get what you're saying Rick, seeing that I travel to Cary once a month to participate in a club, that reached out to me about joining at a show they put on at Hangar 18 Hobbies. I do also attend an IPMS chapter meeting, on the 3rd Thursday of the month in Winston-Salem. The June meeting is this coming Thursday the 20th at 7pm, at the Southpark Community Center on Country Club Rd. George W. from the Fast Traxx/Race City group also happens to live in Kernersville, and he and I have spoken about the state of their show, and possibly finding a venue to save the April show (God bless them for putting on two shows/year!). I have also talked to a CKM guy at other shows, about their event. I'm glad to hear they aren't giving up! Which brings me to the point of my posting, in that a lot of shows are joint efforts between two or more clubs, because of the work involved in putting on one of these events. They are building a community center in Kernersville, and I have been in touch with city officials about renting the venue. I have a contact in the Winston-Salem school system, who is looking into the possibility of using a school gym for an event. I am also thinking about talking to my church committee, about using our church basement for an event. We're losing our NC shows, and I'm hoping to do something about that. These events in SC are too far away for a day trip, and would require motel stays, and time-off requests from work to attend.
