Thank you Michelle!
-
Thank you Luke! I felt that car was made for a monster V-8, and of course the 6 it has is a beast, but I wanted something different. And when I set the engine in the bay and it sat with no major issues. It was a done deal. I appreciate it. Will do the update posts once I get the mufflers in my hand.

Very nice subtle hot rod! Excellent work!!

I really enjoyed this build. Great kit, pretty goes together all by itself. Paint by Tamiya, Engine by Iceman, Tires/Wheels by Aoshima, mufflers by Resins by Reese. (Will install those once they arrive) After so many paint issues, and such this girl is done!

Black parts, White paint
meechum68 replied to matthijsgrit's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Check out the build I did on a 67 Impala, it was the black one from Supernatural. I used grey Tamiya primer, then mica silver and clear red over it. Now, I had thought of going to a white car, vs the finish I did. I will be building this kit again, and will go white. Will use Tamiya Primer, Tamiya Mica Silver, and then Pure white. Will post pics for this when I get it on the bench. -

Any idea on theme for the 2026 Cannonball
meechum68 replied to Wagonmaster110's topic in Community Builds
I like the following: 4 bangers-cars/trucks (This one the most cuz... 4 bangers .. nitrous, alchy, boost, so much boost and then you get Porsche/VW/Pinto/Vega as the traditional ones, plus the awesome imports from Japan) Landyachts Pickups/vans Fake cop cars The idea about the Alaska to SA run for another GB would be a blast as well. So many options open up with that. -
I'm digging this! Looks great with the white and blue!
-
That is looking great! That blue is so nice, one of the colors I keep on hand.
-
This is gonna be awesome! Definitely got some mod work on the nose by the headlights. Gonna be following this.

I did some flash trimming on a S-10 I am gonna build for my oldest boy, and did some flash trim on the 57 Chevy for the wife. Got the 2nd coat of paint on the Skyline hood as well, and interior for the Pontiac painted (Went with something entirely different, that I think will look great for this build.)

1972 Ford F250
meechum68 replied to Jay Lankford's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Simple clean interior! Love it! That plow is amazing! Awesome work man. -
So a little mock up! Aside from the decal's my thought process is: Race on Sunday, Sell on Monday. (Which if I recall, is the old stock car lineage)

1975 International 4300 Transtar
meechum68 replied to Pete68's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Lookiing good! I need to get another rig on my bench! -
Got it on it's wheels. Still debating on giving the interior a bath, if it is decent after the 2nd coat then I will roll with it. If not, in the tub it will go.

Hmmm this gives me ideas for my Tempest I have in my stash. Love the color.
