The original rear with rounded tail lights / new rear panel made with heated styrene / new egg-shaped tail lights made with Tamiya´s putty and some Dremel working on it. The front panel has received a 2mm styrene piece. The original 53 Ford hood is too peaked and was smoothed. Also, another piece of styrene was glued to make the rounded edge fabrication possible. Still there is a lot of body work to do. So far, the body is waiting for the new fender lines.

Forgive me the purists, but I liked this car a lot. For me, that is the hot rod essence. Take one part here, put another over there and... Voilá! You got a custom ride! Ferrambo 1960 Rambler Wagon, chassi made by Art Morrison, Ferrari's 3.6 V8 engine, front and rear suspension. All parts from a crashed 360 Modena. By Divers Street Rods. 2008 Ridler Award (Autorama) winner. Purists or not, the fact is: this ride represents an outstanding building! And there it is!! Base kit: '53 Ford Wagon from R&R resin At first, I did not had in mind to make the model 100% equal to the original Ferrambo. Insomuch, I gave the fenders a square look and was intended to use this wheels set. But, as we used to say: "Once in hell, give daemon a hug"! So, I asked myself: why not??? So, I decided to build "THE" Ferrambo. I'll try to do my best to make it happens. Side panel that was sanded away! The body without originals pillars / new ones in place (correct angle)

Hi guys. I just got my "new" and "correct" Round2´s General Lee model kit. Box Same original art box. The rear provides a quick consult to the content. Content 5 plastic bags: -chassi, interior and body -transparent parts -decal -chromed parts -all other plastic parts Great!!!! A correct body!!! But, the same problems still there! Bad injection, lack of accuracy (where is the 440??? The Hemi still there!), gap between rear body and chassis, huge injection pin marks inside the interior, bad chromed parts, and so on. Ok, it was expected once we all knew that it won't be a new tooling. But at least the decal sheet should be colored correctly, doesn't it? Well, not this time!!! Again!!! I´m disappointed!

Hum…. very odd to listen this.. at last for me. I live in Brazil and I started to buy at RR (Steve) about 4 years ago. I never had problem dealing with him. Matter of fact, I must praise Steve. He always quickly replied me and also helped me to find models that he even not commercializes. I always recommend Steve and Resin Realm. I’m sorry to hear this and hope you can solve it as soon as possible. By the way, I guess Steve is a member of MCM Forum as well.

Hi. Does anybody here have any pics from new ´66 Chevy Impala from Revell? Is it a new tooling or re-issued???

Brendan, thanks for the tips! Elan, I already got some good pictures of these parts. I notice that magnesium effect you mentioned. Thanks. Spyder, thanks for the link but unfortunately there is none that helps me. I’m looking for some like this: or even better… Thanks anyway guys! ‘Still looking…

Nobody??? No help???

Hi guys. Does anybody have good pictures from new Ford GT chassis? I’m building the ´08 ALMS Ford GT Falken (GT2) and would like to see some good reference photos. Pics from the interior and body I already have. The chassis and engine ones will be nice! Thanks.

And about the G.Lee´s decals???? Does anyone knows if they are OK this time???? I mean... The "General Lee" shoud be printed in blue right? All the previus versions are black....

Unfortunately...I agree! That’s why I’m scratch building my own F350… Mustang3.8… It will comes in Regular cab, Extend Cab and Crew Cab with regular box or stepside box. I’m intended to make all these versions. Will I can do it???? Just God knows… As it's a no primary project, I presume it will take a long time to get finished… I’m sorry! But I promise communicate here when it comes out!!!

I´m working on it.. but it will take some time to get finished... If you need it righ now, you should go http://ssbresins.com/

Hi Guys… I’m intended to build the ’07 Cadillac CTS Speed GT I was wondering if the Revell’s Cadillac STS kit could be a good donor.. I know the correct model is a CTS but exactly WHAT IS the differences between these two cars? What do you guys think about this project??? A lot of work for nothing?

I´m a fan of Foose´s design but Troy as well… I´m building the ´52 Chevy Butterscorched from Overhaulin´ TV Show. I´m also intended to do this black F-100… let me finish the Chevy first…. Harry, what about the Eleanor??? Sniper?

Hi people… Does anybody here knows this kit??? Is it good? Is it made all plastic? Is there any metal parts, PEs, decals? Any comments are welcome.

A friend of mine runs a small company called DomModelCar. It's a pretty new company and its focus is the Brazilian cars. Unfortunately we did not have great muscles cars in the past like the American people. More precisely, 4 models have made success in the 70's: Ford Galaxie, Ford Maverick, Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Opala (yes, with “Oâ€). This last is a Brazilian version of the Opel Rekord C. Anyway, DomModelCar have started its business with Brazilian Ford Maverick, which also have some differences comparing to the American version (and so with JoHan kit) For years, we (Brazilian modelers) had to modify the JoHan´s kit to get our Maverick version. But not anymore. So, if you guys really wants this model, there is already a resin caster that made it. RJ, please don't take my post as a trouble. I´m a kind of guy that really support all initiatives. If you already started working on it, I say keep the good work. There is space for everyone!!! That´s the DomModelCar´s webpage: http://www.dommodelcar.com/ The option "FOTOS" means pictures of some projects & built models.

#9# New gas tank Assembly test… Tips and comments are welcome!!! PS: I’m having trouble to find some good reference of this panel: Does anyone can help me? How does it finishes close to the chassis?

#7# New window’s edges (it also will be smoothed) #8# New body lines

#5# Interior’s height shortened (edges will be smoothed) #6# Rear panels

#2# Chassi’s rear panel sectioned #3# Body pillars modification #4# Frame modification

Hi folks. That’s my actual project: a ’34 Ford chopped & channeled This is my inspiration: I’ll try to replicate it the closest as I can. #1# Roof smoothed and top chopped

Simple cover the hood with masking tape. Cut off the excess then place the mask in the back of the CF sheet. You can drawn the format with a pencil or can direct cut using a x-acto or a scissor.

Does anybody know anything about this new kit? Any store out there selling already?

Hello people... Somebody has reference photos of this model?

Would be nice if those big guys from Hollywood made more films with cars as maim subject? I mean,,, there is a great movies with car related, but comparing to total movies launched every year is insignificant…Transformers last year was good but a little “over†to me (read it as “bring more moneyâ€! Hollywood’s Rules!) And even these ones more recently, in my opinion, all sucks! Lets face it… Fast & Furious for example: it’s about to start the 4th sequence with basic the same tuning subject…Man… why not make something really interesting around Hotrods??? The last title (good one) I remember is American Graffiti….Or something like LeMans??? Please… more gasoline, more speed, more mils… less CG effects…less ridiculous scripts…

That´s an excellent transkit!!!! It´s worth each cent! Take a look at these WIPs http://www.small-dreams.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?t=8298 http://www.small-dreams.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?t=7725
