Nah I'm not talking about a dinky little case, I thought you avid model builders had HUGE display cases.
Nice work on the nomad, cant wait to see it done.
I meant a few weeks, I only get to work on it about 30 minutes a night if at all.
I had a vision at work, strip the chrome off the rims and paint them either gun metal or aluminum. Yes, no?
Wait until its don and he sees it all together, and thanks to the kind words. My skills have improved because of you guys.
Thanks guys, I really appreciate the kind words. Hopefully I can get this thing done soon...
I got the new rims and tires ready to be mounted on the truck. I used some aluminum tubing to fill in the hole now the axles fit in the Brakes for the rims.
I inserted the smaller diameter into the larger diameter.
Finished product.
All of them done.
Thanks Raul for the tip!!!!
Did some surgery last night on the hinge. I carefully cut it out....
And replaced it with a new one.
New Hinge
Old Hinge
I need to touch up the hood with some paint, I might paint the underside black.
Thanks Raul. i need to redo the hood hinge, it didnt like being taken apart to be painted. But, there is a good side, I can make the hinge longer like I wanted to do originally. Hopefully that will happen tonight or over the weekend.
From a few days ago, Italian Red, the cab isnt perfect but it will have to do. Been a rough week so this is all I have been able to do.
Going to put a set of these on the truck as well.
I am glad I brought some laughter into yall's work day or whatever time of day.
John, thank you first of all, for showing your support. I see Ospry every so often here at MCAS Beaufort. I think those planes are pretty awesome. But my all time favorite is the GR7 (harrier?) I got to see them first hand in the sand box and they are a sight.
A guy was washing his car when he noticed his neighbor (a blonde) walking out to her mailbox and looking in.
She keeps doing this for about an hour until the guy goes up to her and asks what she is doing.
without hesitation the blonde says, "my computer keeps telling me I have mail."
