I built these Polar Lights kits over the years of 1999 to 2005.

I built this from the Polar Lights kit. I printed the Munsters Green logo at the top from a website.

Hey Ohana If you watch the video at 0:56 you will see where I gave props to Dr. Cranky.

Finally done with this project

I finished The wheels and tires.Wired the master cylinder and ran the front and back brake lines. Next up Bodywork

Thanks for the compliments, The engine is a Buick "Nailhead V-8" 425 C.I. 360hp and it came out of a 1966 Buick Rivera model kit. Yeah sometimes the derby drivers get wild with the headers but they reinforce them to the engine really well. The cage is just basically a steel box so the driver will be protected in his seat from all 4 sides if he gets hit.

The interior and engine are now complete. Since last update I added the steering wheel and gear shift, connected all the interior connections to the engine (fuel line, battery, switch box and starter) I wired the alternator and added a bracket to it so it wasn't floating in the air I added the coil, radiator and throttle linkage. Scratch Built a firewall with dashboard.

Engine pics.

Thanks,

I'm building a 66 Buick Rivera Derby Car. Trying to make it look nice.

I scratchbuilt the garage here's the link to it. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=54044 The jackstands came out of a 1/24 scale diecast Nascar pit accessories pack.

It started out all pristine snowy white 1966 Ford Galaxie. Then the decals were brittle, broken and tearing apart so I turned it into a barn find junker. It's a work in progress.

Nah, I saved the Rolex and used a TAG Heuer.

A garage diorama I made from styrofoam that was packed in a computer monitor box then weathered. With added signs, doors and junkers and junk parts.

Built from the Amt kit. I painted the white walls using a circle drafting template.I hand painted the interior using testor's flat red and added foil and black electrical tape for accents on the seats and doors.

The frame made from K and S aluminum and brass tubing the rear body was made by cutting a deodorant cap in two.The fuel tank was cut from a solid K and S aluminum rod.The engine was from the Cop Out funny car.

Built from the Revell kit.

I bought this Revell of Germany 1/12 '57 Chevy for $20.00 at a model swap meet in Salisbury,NC on Saturday.This edition came out in 2002.

Yeah it's really cool to have these kits available again.Here's "Endsville Eddie" that I just finished

This was built from the reissued Hawk kit then attached to a painted wood board that used to be a shelf on a cd storage rack.The sign has cabinet and drawer contact paper to resemble real wood.

Here's the link to cutting with thread. www.bonediggers.com/2-3/doors/doors.html Here's my Mercury Comet using the thread method.

Built from the reissued Monogram kit .
