I'm certainly impressed!

I, for one, appreciate that you posted video and photos! Looks like a nice kit.

That's mighty sharp!

Been busy, but not on this. Nearing completion. I still need to paint the door handles, attach the rear hatch, and find or work up some plates. The mirrors need to be touched up, and now that I took a couple of pictures, I see a massive gap along the top of the windshield. *sigh*

You might be able to find decals for the pinstripes. I think we're all looking forward to this one!

This may be the very best build up I've seen of this kit. Simply stunning!

Just crazy!

Ken Boyer - aka KennyBoy - thanks for a great trade! I would trade again with you anytime.

This thread is pure gold.

Wait, was that a scale Model A I saw over there?

Looks really great to me!

That's a real beauty. Sure takes me back ...

This is a great idea.

Agreed, but it's a fun little kit. Hope to pick up a couple, if it does materialize at some point ....

I have that kit. I had assumed it would build nicely. You've done a fantastic job! Really love these oddball cars.

That's pretty cool!

Beautiful, and it's great seeing them together like that!

Slow and steady. Made a little more progress. The front suspension was firmly attached by the previous builder, so I'm leaving the ride height as-is. Still need to add the cover to the front wheels and paint the door handles. I also need to add the mirrors to the fenders, paint the rear hatch, and add some wipers. I found a tinted sunroof, so I think I'm going to use that. I fabricated the rearview mirror from a piece of wire and the remains of a mirror from somewhere. Over all, though, not too shabby. I guess. And what is that lurking in the background, but another rebuilder? Check out the 1st Generation wheel created by Vitan Kasnakov around 2014 for me. Sorry to just be putting it to use, Vitan!

That looks really nice - both trucks look great.

That's a real beauty.

So using Tamiya polishing compound (finishing), I was able to get most of the enamel off without any apparent damage to the lacquer. We'll see what happens next ...

Nice progress!

nice

I'm trying to fight just that problem with this build! Touch up, fix rear glass, fix wheels ... done! (maybe???)

I'll give it a try. If I want to repaint the black (it's a molded-in door handle), I assume I need to really wash the car body after using Novus?
