I used the chassis from Round 2's reissue of the old MPC '33 Willys panel truck gasser... worked out really well, since my build is strictly curbside.

Okay, so I can't actually claim credit for the concept, as I was inspired by a Del Swanson piece, titled "Club-de-Mer-der" Built back in 2016, for the model I combined element's from Revell's Club-de-Mer concept kit (body) and Miss Deal funny car (chassis and suspension), as well as AMT's parts pack 421 Pontiac engine..... With a few goodies from the parts bin tossed in for good measure. Paint is Kylie brand nail polish Kalypso blue, fogged down the center with Kylie brand Kryptonite green...

I'm lovin' it..... GREAT early 60's vibe!!!!

I can dig it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW!!!! I have got to get me one of those!!!!

Built several years ago for a build off / challenge with my good modeling buddy, Frank...... This build combines bits from two of my all-time favorite drag kits...... Body is from Revell's Miss Deal funny car (I chopped the roof), while the chassis and drivetrain are from MPC's Winged Express altered..... Wheels and tires were sourced from my very deep parts box.... Paint is Tamiya Clear Red over Tamiya Gold base, with Tamiya Pearl White in the coves.... Decals were made by me on my computer. Here's a pic of the Stude together with Frank's entry into the build-off.....

There's not enough O's in COOOOOOOL to describe this one, Claude!!!!! LOVE the whole surf wagon theme too, but then again "unique" surf wagons are kinda my thing.... As evidenced by my Scout, elsewhere in this segment of the forum!

MPC's old NitroVette Corvette funny car kit, from the early 80's, that I've had in my stash since... well.... the early 80's..... This build happened because I was given the "Boogieman" decals, by someone on another message board, last year, with the stipulation that I had to actually build something using them.... After a quick look through my kits, I settled on the long ignored Vette flopper.... Built pretty much straight from the box.... Paint is a quick n dirty two tone rattle can fog job, using is Testors One Coat lacquers. Honestly, I am not that happy with this one, but I'm calling it done..... For now!

STUNNING!!!!! Looks like it jumped right off the cover of a late 50's / early 60's copy of Rod & Custom magazine!!!!

That Fury is SHARP, Oliver!!!!! Looking forward to seeing the Imperial.

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, Claude.... Definitely looks like we were on the page.... I just wish I was capable of achieving the level of finish that your builds always exhibit!

This build dates back to the late 1990's ... as may be made obvious the paint style and colors. JoHan '62 Chrysler 300 with much of the trim shaved off... Paint is Testor's MM enamels, though the exact shades now escape me. Wheels and tires from Revell's Dodge Copperhead concept car kit. Here is where the 300 "V" designation comes from... Viper V-10 from Revell's snapper.... Paint scheme is carried over into the engine compartment.

I had fond memories of building MPC's T Trike, as a teen, back in the mid-1970's, so when it was finally reissued as the Milk Trike a few years back, I decided I had to take another crack at it..... Built pretty much box stock, with the exception of AMT Parts Pack slicks, Parts by Parks injector tubes, and a Preston's pre-wired magneto.

Built this one several years ago. I started by opening up the wheel openings on Revell's Miss Deal funny cay body and mounting it to the chassis and running gear from MPC's Rat Trap Vega dirt modified kit... Body was painted Minneapolis Moline yellow, with the chassis being finished with Testors gloss red enamel... Numbers and sponsor marking were sourced from several Slixx decal sheets. Unfortunately this model was destroyed shortly after completion.... (I was getting ready to put it back in the display case after a show, when I tripped over the cat and fell on the model, essentially crushing it) Maybe someday I'll build another.

Now that is awesome!!! I have something similar in the works, using the side by side twin SBC's from the D.D. kit.

Lovin' it.. Now all you need is a 1/16 scale Jungle Pam!!!!

This is so cool... The hand lettering is a very nice touch!

I really dig this!!!!!

I'd drive that... Nicely done!

Great model!!!! I love watching these cars run against the blown alcohol cars!!!!

WOW!!!! Dig the RHD, and that gorgeous paint..... Suddenly I'm in the mood for a grape soda!!!!

You know I did, Tim....These types of builds are a HOOT!!!

Beautiful build of a model you don't often see.... Please, show us more!

Neat little conversion... I enjoy checking out eBay listings of such cars.
