Welcome aboard and back into the Hoddy. . Which acrylics are you using? Some are fickle some are a dream.

Welcome aboard fellow Canuck. It's great to see kids your age taking an interest in this fabulous hobby. Nice looking build.

Agreed. Great find Dan, but ya it's 1/12. With your talent Dan you'll be able to build up the one with the missing parts into your own creation.

This a joy to watch come together, some great fabricating going on here.

Thanks guys for checking in. I do appreciate your interest and kind words, they help the progress. I have been messing around with this some more. I have started to scratch build some rear leaf springs. I am not sure if I will use them on this or not. It was more of a need then a want, I find building parts from scratch very relaxing. Relaxing is the hardest thing for me to do, especially when sitting at the bench. The wheels/tire's will be switched up. The original rear wheel/tire combo never actually fit properly. They were literally stuffed in place and held with sculpting expoy. The new wheels, being an open design and slightly narrower make it worth the effort and time to install brakes and rotors. The brake/rotors are from a 90's 1/20 F1 kit. The calipers have been narrowed and fitted for clearance. The kit rear axle has had spacers added for the rotors and a locating pins added. Again I may not use the new springs, they simply may end up taking more effort then I want to put into this rebuild. The main spring and the frame pick up points and bolts still need building. The last picture is just a fitting/mock up for the wheels/tire's.

What a cool build, nice work.

WOW, what a great looking build.

Really nice looking build. Nice touch with the exhaust tips.

Cool looking build, it looks like it could be turned into the 'Defibrillator'. Good luck with your restoration Snake.

Beautiful kit and great work, love all the added detail.

Good progress.

I like the idea of turning track cars into 'street cars'. I'll be following along.

Good to see this one back Dann. Looking good.

Sweet restoration, great work.

Thanks for posting that. Outstanding work Brudda, something to be very proud of.

Welcome aboard David.

Hi Barry, welcome to the plastic play ground.

Looks great from here. Nice colour combo.

Really great conversion and real nice work. It's always interesting to see how many different ways body mods are done. Never would have thought to step it like that, great method. That looks like Cathedral Rock from Oak Creek as your back drop. I LOVE the Sedona/Oak Creek area.

Amazing idea for the blanket, thanks for sharing. That dash board looks incredible, very nice work. . Your photography and lighting are perfect.

Welcome to the plastic fun land. Nice to see young guys getting into this hobby.

Man I love the lines of this, well done sir.

Oooooo that's a bingooo!

Cracking job! Makes me want to restore the POJ glue bomb I have in the stash.

Another great update.
