Scott Eriksen

Up on the bench now ,,,,shot the body and some parts yesterday,,decaling today ,, this will be the 4speed rendition of Ron's Dart,,he bounced back and forth between the Torqueflite and the 833,,pretty much a stock build ,Revell Hemi Dart kit,using Fireball Modelworks 3116 Holley's and other detail parts .Paint is Tamiya Chrome Yellow,SMP Decals

Outstanding!

Pictures of the build are in the WIP

............jesssus just what we need,,another SCOTT !! lol welcome aboard!

Slixx did the 64-65 cars and there's the decals from the Revell Landy Charger I think thats as close as your gonna get

Finished her up today

.............another crappy day ,,couldn't work outside so I finished up the Reo....put on all the do-dads ,lights..made the tarp mechanism ,,west coast mirrors with spots ,the kits mirrors weren't too bad so I used them instead of making a set out of aluminum tubing ,,,undecided on doing some weathering or not,,,maybe get some HO scale coal to use as asphalt .Think I'm going to build another Super Stock Hemi car next,a small inbetweener from the trucks

Looks good Steve!

.............starting to get nice out which means yard work and sitting out on the deck,,,but anyway,,,a little more progress made- dump body mounted,,fabbed up telescopic aluminum tubing to replace the plastic hyd rams in the kit (wont stay up without a prop though) ran the air brake/fuel lines some brackets have to be made yet.Made a PTO and direct drive dump pump and hyd reservoir.Installed radiator stay rods .Made and installed rubber mudflaps-fronts need the carriage bolts in the fenders yet.Painted the Dayton spoke wheels,brake drums and mounted with Jamie's tires (I was going to use 2hole Budds but only had 20") Installed aluminum tube driveshafts with slip yokes.Front bumper mounted ,,wip making better brackets. Rain tomorrow so I'll probably shoot the mirrors/cab lights and airhorns/headlight buckets/door handles and front signals with Alclad ,,come up with some tail lights.Grill needs some more black wash ,,I was going to drill it all out but.... I'm going to make up an electric tarp deal,picked up some fabric at the Dollar Tree !

The mufflers and shields are Auslowe,,I made up the pipes going to them with aluminum tubing and parts from other kits

Yep! Same with Brockway and Mack cabs

Same with me yard work time!

Nice job!............the driver just left a ticket in the shop and says he thinks the wedge brakes need adjusting

Thanks Rich!

Has anyone tried using the AMT Duster for the chassis/floor pan and driveline ?? I'm still waiting for my Demon from Hobbylinc !

yep,,nothing on the Moebius website either

Thanks Gary,did you finish the 4300 yet?

Any news on this and the AWB version? I see the Belvederes are out of production now too

Gonna look good Zip!!

Thanks Brian!

...........well in between all the rain and earthquakes this week some progress has been made ! Cab and hood mounted ,dump body mounted temporarily to check exhaust height.Luberfiner and hoses run, power steering lines run and I cobbled up a reservoir , Farr air filter and inlet piping to turbo fabbed up and installed , exhaust piping and muffler nailed on .Batteries-cables, drivers side fuel tank and fuel lines next

Thanks! Yep,,,AMT ,dump body from the Autocar kit ,,,and yes even the 1:1 cabs were similar

Thanks Dom!

I like it! I've done a few 1/35th armored stuff and enjoyed building ,, sort of a conundrum though,SUPER detail but then usually no engine/drivetrain to speak of

Like that shifter Brian,,,what did you use brass rod/tubing ?
