1962 F100 rebuild
dino246gt replied to mchook's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Aren't those letters a big too big anyway? I'd cut out that center panel and fit one from a Mobuis or Bronco kit. MAYBE? OR, you could cut out the center panel, then cut off the ends just before the F and just after the D, that D doesn't look so bad, then make new ends, only seams would be above and below the letters. -

Here's an article I did over a decade ago, for making driveshafts any length. Keep the plastic one together while thinning each end to slip into the tubing, this makes it easier to handle before you cut off the ends. I make it in 2 pieces of tubing so it's slightly adjustable in length, that way you can have the diff and transfer case or transmission both glued in place before glueing one end in, then stretching it to glue the other end. -

Great idea, and it's coming along nicely, at least 2 of them are, so far! -
1967 F100 shortbed

Really great build! -
You just need to build a "rickety old garage" to park it in!

Nice custom, cool!!!

Looking good, I was looking to get one of these myself, something you don't see on the model tables, but the parking lots are full of them (or similar SUVs) Might as well build one, looks like a nice kit anyway. So am I "interested person number 4"?

Great stuff! Cool project! Love it so far!

1960 Ford Pickup Chassis Swap?
dino246gt replied to StevenGuthmiller's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Steve, are you working on this project? I also stripped an old one and was thinking about either restoring it as is, like totally original.......OR....../more to my liking, detailing it with more accurate "stuff". The Mobius pickups do offer some good stuff for it, but as already stated, NOT the front suspension! My hood side emblems are good on one side but missing the F on the other. -

Hasegawas Lamborghini Miura SV....new update!
dino246gt replied to Dann Tier's topic in WIP: Model Cars
I'm a BIG Miura fan, so when I do eventually build mine, I want it all open, so it'll require a lot of extra work, I mean a lot of extra fun! Here's a few photos of the real amazing, gorgeous, innovative and crazy little bull! Dan I love what you did with the louvers! CIAO!- 213 replies

I also have about 5 of those, but when I bought a pair from Tamiya, for WAY more money, I couldn't believe the difference, WAY better! However I still use the Radio Shack ones for many things. Tamiya for chrome and clear parts as they cut with barely a touch!
