  1. Ok cool ima do that also and leave this wip up hope to get the parts I’m after and get this finished up nice thanks guys
  2. Hey guys I built this car once about 25 yrs ago when was 12 so now I have pulled it off the shelve and redoing it ….. and realized between moving homes twice in that timeframe I have lost the hood grill front and rear glass and rear bumper I am BEGGING does anyone have any these parts cause without them I’m not continuing this build . Just thought would be cool to redo and make it a truly bad a$$ build …. Anyway on to the model kept the body interior tub and chassis which have had to modify correctly … unsure the kit brand 1/24 scale 57 ford that I altered the wheelbase moving the rear arch’s forward 18” in scale straight axle front conversion a Chrysler early hemi “331 cid if remember “ as it’s from my parts box with a 6-71 blower and will be a Alky injection system …has a Dana 60 rear end and so far this is where I’m at till locate the missing parts thanks guys
  3. Thanks This one in a personal build the wife does dioramas and I build her cars but those are more patina builds and such ….. and it is nice but they are involved in off roading with me drag racing with me and all we all share common interests and it makes life great
  4. Yes I will I should started with a post car but hey I had this kit figured why not use it the revell kit would prop been a better start
  5. Thanks yea it is nice she’s more into the diorama part of it so I do her autos but son builds all his stuff so that’s cool I’ll get some pics there stuff and post soon I been modeling since I was 8 so 30 yrs of it and have a few I’m proud of but this one I hope tops them I plan to make it as accurate as can and detailed as much as can
  6. Hello guys….. I’m Nick (not new but never posted on the 12 yrs been part this page ) this week I decided since the wife and son are getting into scale models and dioramas ide get back into building since have been away from the bench for 8 yrs or so …. Anyways nuff bout me this is a project I plan to take to some contest and such so here it goes…. Monogram 55 Chevy kit ….. revell 426 hemi and most other parts are from parts bin …. First off made the front clip then added the gussets on fire wall and constructed the rest the firewall… then clipped the front frame section and reconstructed and scratch build the straight axle and leaf springs …. Then decided the molded in exhaust had to go so repaned the floor then realized the trunk pans were wrong so redid those …. Built the rear ladder bars and added the 9inch rear end and added a few frame mods sourced from some reference material to replicate the Meyers frame of Blasphemi …. Built the flip nose section and assembled and painted the engine and built a throttle body assembly ….. this project is the 2019 drag week version as Blasphemi has had many changes over the yrs ….. hope y’all enjoy I’ll be posting as progress goes over the next few days as there is a lot left to do built and modify to make it a worthy build
  7. This will be nice I can’t wait to see more as I’m a jeeper myself which they made a xj kit
