I also made an ignition, head light and wiper switch knobs from plastic tubing. Made a new shifter and made some seat adjuster handles. I will have to make the adjuster handles a little bit smaller. Also made a new turn signal handle and spotlight handles. So now the interiors mods are complete except for color.

Did some more work on the interior. I drilled out the dash for the gauges, headlight switch, and an ignition. There was too much room behind the seats so I made a panel from the original tonneau cover and then I added some round strips for piping.

I think I got it.

Not too far from me. We got about 8 - 10 inches with a possibility of a couple more this weekend.

Near the Legends

welcome to the forum, nice to see someone else from KC.

This thing is made on a KIA Prides platform, just plain ugly.

We just got about 10 inches on Tuesday evening. what a mess it was this morning going to work.

I think I might have it, Only time will tell.

Still looking for it. I know what it is not at least.

ok its either a real model or a model of a real car, that should just about cover it.

Hey guys I have been looking at the original art work, if you look at the purple one it kinda looks like it fades to white on the bottom. What do you think of painting this build similar to the picture. It looks like an easy fade.

Thanks Mike for your comment. Guaranteed you could build anything you want.

Thanks guys I just sent Bob an email.

Wow I thought I knew what this was , but I have not found it yet. It looks like everything else built during this period. I am sure I will kick myself when Harry post the answer on Friday. Hey Harry can we get a hint. LOL...............

I been around here since 08 also, but I only got a whopping 650 plus post. Boy I must be lazy. Congrats on your accomplishment. Wonder what you get for 700 post, I might make that this year.

Thanks Nick and Pete. Do you know if Bob's Paint has a website.

Hello Mike, great to see another Kansan on the forum. There is a model club called the KC Slammers in the area, They put on the Heartland Nationals every year. You can look up their website for details of where they meet every month. Nice lot of guys to meet.

Welcome to the best model car forum around. Hope to see some of your builds soon. We need more people from Kansas.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the best model forum in the world. Hope to see some of your builds soon.

Just wondering if any one knows a good source for candy paints that will work on plastic besides House of Kolor. Thanks in advance.

I agree with erik on the cowl type hood, like the hoods off the 70-72 Chevelle SS

I have also been trying my luck at a faded paint job. These are not the colors I will be using but just an idea of what I want to do with the paint on this build. My plan on the paint job is something similar to one of these cars.

Well its been awhile since I had any updates on this build, but I am hoping to get some work done on this now. I don't have a lot to update, but I did do some work to the interior door panels. I removed all the molded in window cranks and arm rest. Added parts box pieces to replace them. I also made some power window switches.
