Sorry for my late post, dear model building friends, I was focusing on the chassis, which, like the body, naturally had to be shortened to fit. And it also affected the rear part of the chassis. This would later be connected to the front part of the chassis. I was still wondering how to solve the axle problem, since the kit's mountings wouldn't hold the wheels for much longer, so I tried to build my own axle. Whether that works will become clear later. Until then π Best regards π Eugen S.

Oh that will be a pro street truck. Excellent work. Greetings Eugen S. -
Good morning to you three, and thank you so much πππ Please forgive me for the slight delay in construction at the moment. I'm also working on a brick-and-mortar project and want to prepare for a November exhibition. But I have a few fresh updates today: More progress coming soon. Until then ππ Greetings π Eugen S.

Good morning, Michael ππ I'll take a seat at your Datsun project and follow your build report. The start looks good. I'm looking forward to further progress. ππ Best regards π Eugen S. -
Hello everyone ππ Thank you both, Keith and Anton ππ We've moved on a bit. The engine has already been started. More updates to follow later. See you then π Greetings π Eugen S.

Hello everyone ππ The Typhoon is moving forward. It now has windows and the B and C pillars. It's already a little closer to the original, but a few adjustments still need to be made. It's also been given filler. It just needs sanding. More updates to follow later. Until then. Greetings ππ Eugen S.

Good morning everyone ππ Welcome, Gene, to my project π€ It'll take a while, but I hope it will. ππ There's more progress on my Typhoon project. Construction of the roof has begun. Made with 0.05mm plastic sheeting. I also had to close a thin gap at the back. That was a fine filing job. It took hours and it hurt my finger a little π’ So far, it looks like a small van, but the windows will be fixed soon, etc. The interior has also been reinforced. There's still a lot to do. See you then π Greetings π Eugen S.

Good morning everyone ππ Welcome to my project, Anton, Greg, and Steve, and thank you for following me. π And thank you for the two beautiful photos, Steve, of the Japan-spec Typhoon. πππππ By the way, mine will also be fitted with Japanese license plates. And of course, a warm welcome to you too, Earl. I'll be very excited about your project when you start it. The Oldsmobile Bravada will look completely different again with the grille, wheels, and so on. Okay, the rims look very similar to the Syclone/Typhoon. And it's a four-door. I'll show you new updates later. See you then. Greetings π Eugen S.

Hey everyone ππ My next update won't be long in coming. So, I'm continuing with the conversion process of the Syclone/Typhoon. A lot of trimming had to be done at the rear to match the original, and the position of the fuel cap has also changed: Here you can see how it looks on the original Typhoon: And how that looks on my model: So far, it looks like a shortened pickup truck. The roof will be added soon, etc. See you then. Greetings π Eugen S.

Good evening everyone ππ I recently received four S10 kits, or rather three of them. I bought the fourth Monogram Chevrolet S-10 myself. One of the two Waverider Chevy S-10s was already started by the previous owner but not quite finished, and it doesn't have any paint yet, which is a plus for me. I'll build that one as a Waverider, and I have something else planned for the other Waverider. But that's for the next project. But now to the current project: The renovation process begins: That doesn't quite convince me, so I'll take everything apart and strip the paint: It was a very long process, taking several hours. The fire wall was glued to the cabin: The rear outer parts of the bed have already been shortened slightly, and the fuel cap has been sawed out: More progress to follow later. See you then ππ Best regards π Eugen S.

Good evening to you both, Rick and Keith ππ Thank you for joining me on my project, and thanks for the pictures, Keith ππ That's a great toy for the road, it really gave me a lot of power. Oh yes, the Marlboro Syclone also looks very nice in that red with the decals π Revell also included the Marlboro decals so I could build this version. However, I'll have to saw off some of the roof and the pickup cover as well. I recently got a second Syclone kit from the first edition. I also found another version of the Syclone here, which I'm planning to use for my next project: Best regards π Eugen S.

Good morning everyone ππ Please don't be surprised, but I've already built the Syclone in Candy Lime Green with flame decals and gold rims. However, I wasn't entirely satisfied with it in the end, so I took it apart again and sanded off the old paint. This is what my Syclone looked like before: Afterwards, it looked like this, with Fujimi wheels for customization: Primed and painted black: More updates later. Best regards π Eugen S.
