SWEEEET Curt!

Very creative build Wayne!

Here's a Jada diecast... It's a start anyway http://cgi.ebay.com/1973-VW-THING-1-24-KUBELWAGEN-YELLOW-CUSTOM-WHEELS-/190450318746?pt=Diecast_Vehicles&hash=item2c57b93d9a Same seller has several...

I think the street Fury slammer has a more accurate body shape/proportions than AMT's full detail glue kit!

Thanks Jim, dig that lil' Dodge of yours also, nice work! Thanks also Rodney! It's a diecast cab, but Ron @ RMR does offer a pickup (with bed) and the panel version of these Willys... Nice job on that 70s Dodge of yours too

Great conversion work so far Matt! Keep it up

Aaron, here's an extreme case of overlifted suspension, but it'll give you the idea... you can see the leafs made from strip styrene... Here's the best place for these kind of builds: offroad models and here's a tutorial for working leaf springs, but you could glue them rigid also... working leaf springs

JEEPS!!! Did I mention I love Jeeps?

Don, you can get a large parts stash fast by buying a "junkyard" or two from eBay. Do a saved search in your "my eBay" by going to the category: Toys & Hobbies > Models & Kits > Junkyard. You'll get emails daily, find a lot that suits your needs/pricepoint, and start your parts stash!

Very nice work Tom!!! Great idea too!

I'm here in Wayne, NJ after a 7 hour trip...there is a faint smell of styrene in the air! Can't wait!

All very nice, but that 55...WOW! I don't think many cars can pull off so many great themes...gassers, pro street, street machine, pro touring, even stock, the look of a 55 Chevy can't be beat!

Wow, that's SWEEET Jim!!!

How's about a Heritage High Roof? Someday, we'll have a resin kit made from this...

You are correct...the Hobby Lobbys around here have a decent selection of them, with their limited diecasts. they are around $4-5 each and cover just about every era of Harley ever produced. I've got about four or five different ones, pics upon request (I'd have to dig 'em out), but they seem to be scaled pretty well for our 1/25 scale pickup beds

This is gonna be another great one from you John! Cool idea!

Nice stance! Looks good so far

I've got a "highly modified" Commando in the works for the NNL East show...sub-theme is "It's a Jeep thing" this year! Won't be completed though, it'll have to be on the primer table

Me likey so far Rob!

Any decision on a meet-up time at Cheeseburgers on friday afternoon/evening?

Done Walt! I have a few fellow Jeep enthusiasts that live in Kansas, I posted it on our Jeep site. Good luck to your friend, bad enough losing his parents, now to lose a family treasure like that to some scumbag thief

RIP glue guy... There are a few men in this world who wish this stuff would have never been invented...ya know, the ones with vindictive ladies in their lives

Looks great Al!!! Hey, 'ya still have your HHR SS???

WOW!!!

Ryan, I noticed that you opened a NEW account on eBay and this second batch of rims aren't selling like the first...why not go back & change usernames on your original account, the first batch you sold under your original username went fast! Some people are afraid of buying from members with no feedback. Also, are you going to be including the center hubs in the future copies?
