would the 53 Vette chassis fit under there? -
Revell 1/25 Porsche 356 Speedster - Oh my!
lordairgtar replied to Duddly01's topic in WIP: Model Cars
That rub strip on the side was always problematic for me. Much like AMTs 53 Vette that seemed off. -
Body mods are a cool idea. I tried that once and really buggered it. At least your dash is fairly easy to Aussie-fy

You made yours very well. How did you deal with the under hood blob of an engine? I looked everywhere for a 3D print of the proper engine but no luck. I have decided to make better head lights too. Yours look great. For a better body, locate the first issue of this under the Hubley brand. Molded in light blue and seem a tiny bit crisper. The later ones seemed to be very misaligned at the front edge of the door and it's transition to the hood atrea. I will probably rob one of my early Monogram kits for the Spirit Of Ecstasy ornament as those are closer to scale. I lengthened my body 1/4 inch in the middle of the rear doors to create the long wheelbase version and redoing the glass trim as the rear doors of the long version have wing windows at the rear of the rear doors.

Being that I am a fanatic about Australian cars and Canadian cars based on American models, I really need to add this to my book collection.

Really nice. Great color. Did you clear over the decals on the side? -
Ahhh Brazil. I can see me on the beach standing next to the Charger. Admiring the "scenery"

I have been creating a long wheel base model of a 62 Rolls. The original kit is being lengthened and detailed. I hate the blob that represents the engine in the kit. I need to know if anyone makes a 3D printed version of that engine.

Very cool. I have those kits, haven't built yet but they are in the queue. -
Neat car. Thanks for the music. Love Clairy Browne And The Bangin' Rackettes.

The car looks so rich in the gray color.

Wowzers. I have to say the detail is outstanding. Especially the very carefully placed decals on the body. Very difficult to do in my book. XLNT job. I m sure your BIL was extremely pleased.- 40 replies

Nice treatment of the front fenders.

Looks to be an interesting more door project. Love wagons.

I can see that. When I put an inline six in a 56 Chevy kit, I had to put the radiator on the outer side of the support. I found that that was how Chevy did it too.

CHEVY 5500 SERVICE TRUCK
lordairgtar replied to yh70's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Nice build. I have two of the basic trucks, an auger truck and a cherry picker. They are sitting in my shelf as is but I would like to create a detailed model of those work trucks in a local utility livery. -

Looks like an awesome project. BTW, the rear bumper is from a 1960 DeSoto front end.
