    I like the idea of using another hood for the rear, but needs more planning, could use those vertical, one on each side for tail lights, maybe, or as you show, but better integrated into the tail gate?

    I'm diggin' the tail light treatment on that Nomad!

    These 3D printed "fake" nuts and bolts are a must for 1/8th scale details! I've gone through 3 orders already!

    They're in little packs on a counter top rotating rack, I USED to see them at most hobby shops, not so much any more, but of course you can always find them online. These were Hob-bits, sizes 1-72 and 00-80, 00-90. Online they give you sizes. There are plenty of others, not just Hob-bits.

    I used the flathead six from the '41 Plymouth for my scratchbuilt Willys Wagon, and it does look somewhat similar to that picture above. I wouldn't use so many different colors though, as I did on this one, would look better with more black wires, I might paint mine.

    1/8th scale is so much fun to work with, scratch building is much easier. Here's what I did with the blob of a 4 speed in the '65 Vette kit: I cut it apart, made an adapter to fit a flathead, then with some hobby shop little bolts and sheet styrene, a bit of florist wire, it looks so much better: I'm sure you'll have a blast once you start adding details, cheers!

    Just for reference, here's my 1/8th scale Aventador engine:

    Aren't there some dry transfers available, mostly for 1/24th, but they often include "other scales" as well.

    Wow, what you've done already looks very cool! Do those kits come with the rear bucket seats like in your pictures? Your engines and interiors are well done!

    Nice work opening that up! I'm watching, I like what I'm seeing!
  11. dino246gt
    I'm still stunned by how cool that rack and pinion looks, fantastic scratch building!
  12. dino246gt
    I like this project, something different and it's very cool! Nicely done! So far!
  13. dino246gt
    Wow, that looks so cool, great job, lots of "modelling" involved, that's great!

    I'm not sure we can deal here on this site, can we? You can message me? Mine is an old built up with broken body parts, I haven't looked at it in over a decade!
  15. dino246gt
    Great start, awesome paint job!

    I have a junker if you or anyone else needs a part. I also can't wait to see you build this and make it right, which I know you will! Cheers!

    I love the look so far, i have a suggestion, bring those hood bulges down, sand them a bit so they sit a bit lower. It's a classy car, make those more discreet, maybe? I wish I had one to follow your lead though, I just love all the mods you've done, beautiful style! Only ones I have are the newer ones, with skis, mid 70s, still pretty cool, but not as gorgeous as this style! Cheers!
  18. dino246gt
    Nice! I love those '51s and that chop is nice! Love your plans for it, period correct!
  19. dino246gt
    Looking great and nice explanations are so inspiring and helpful, as always. You do great work, thank you for sharing!
  20. dino246gt
    Wow! Awesome work, that looks so clean, gorgeous!
  21. dino246gt
    Very nice low hot rod build!
  22. dino246gt
    Wow, that's going to be impressive, well it already is! 1/12th Lambo, so cool!

    I made up a few things for the tailgate, not the 3D printed suitcases, bought those online. Upper and lower parts glued open, added side bits, rubber weatherstrip, upper struts, lower folding arms and (straight pins) latches! Haven't finished up under the hood yet, otherwise it's almost ready for a road trip!
  24. dino246gt
    Very nice detailing you're doing, keep it up, it looks great!
  25. dino246gt
    Wow that Charger is beautiful! The interior is spectacular. I saw the car but missed looking inside as much as I should have. All I can say, besides gorgeous, is WOW!
