I won this off ebay. It is a 1/12 transkit for the datsun 240 from tamiya The transkit is kinda exspensive and i think i am going to give it to my wife for mothers day. One more pre sale has to happen before they will cast the molds. Please buy one so they will start

I got back to work on the shelby after a long work period. I was having trouble figuring out how i would be able to get the door jams molded in and keep the interior painted. I could not figure it out so i cut the top off the car and now we have a convertible. This is the rear section of the jam and here is the rocker jam that needed to be filled with evergreen Here is the first layer of many with tamyia grey putty. Here is the convertible hack job

Ok, here she is. This the first rig i have build since that Davie Allison set up a long long time ago. I am just in the reaserch phase on this one and i have already hit a road block. photos of the trailer are top secret. Kelly johnson would have loved to have some of the secrecy this thing has. Do you know of where i can find some pics of the trailer? Or a finished model? I think the rig should be straight forward. I can just get some generic pics of a Iveco Anybody put this one together? Know of any pitfalls? Any help would be much appreciated.

I kinda want one of these kits but i think all my Ferrari kits would be mad at me if i brought one in the house. Your build is looking nice. The gunmetal is an excellent choice

So why do you or we stash kits?
lanesteele240 replied to greymack's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I have a bunch of kits stored up to trade for food when the economy fails. Who knows what a kit will go for with paint in hard times -
I wish my stack of started models were not so high. If i had a few less, i would start this model tonight. You did a very awesome job and your wip tread helped out tremendously.

Why did you...
lanesteele240 replied to MikeyB08's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
As a kid in the early 80's, video games were to expensive. Models were in my budget. Well just the model. No money for paint. My uncles did models and i wanted to be like them so i did it. I tried to be just like them. Im just glad they were Clemson fans. No way could i have grown up a gamecock. -
Now could you please buy the miku porch gt3 and put it together

I've been coping of Broady83's paper and trying to make my engine look as good as his. Man i wish we would have finished it. It was coming along great. Any how, i made the tube looking thingy that goes to the back of the charger out of aluminum tubing some styrene rod and a crimp tube. I melted the crimp tube into the rod and painted it. I use a oil lamp that was use to light a jack-o-lanteren for all my styrene heating needs. They are short and fat and should last for 600 years. Here i am using my drill to make the twist for the wire conduit that will be coated in crystal clear and painted black. It is easier than the liquid tape but the liquid tape is still one of the most awesome things ever invented. That is it for now. Hope to have more coming soon.
