  1. Stunning work all the way around. Just beautiful. And I don't throw those words around lightly. It has been a long time since I have seen something this amazing. The craftsmanship is 2nd to none. Love it. *did Edgar set you up with some headlight covers?

    Suzuki Samurai

    That's Cool! I've never heard of the Bobcat.. I assumed the 80's were Suzuki's first venture into making cars. The Datsun sounds like the better decision still.

    Suzuki Samurai

    Thanks! I've actually been planning on doing that still. I found the pattern they used to make for them. Just need to find someone that can make a good 2 color ALPS decal

    Suzuki Samurai

    Hey guys, Here is a fun Samurai I recently finished up. I dressed it up in its best late 80's, early 90's attire. Lo-pro tires and lowered suspension. Old school subwoofer box with waffle grilles and the iconic Precision Power Art Series amp. Memphis patterned seat and door inserts. Aftermarket steering wheel scratchbuilt "Zack Morris" brick cell phone. Crystal Pepsi in the upholder. and a Blockbuster video tape.
  7. Love it!! Will you make any of these bodies available?

    DeLorean

    super cool. I love the wires on the interior.
  12. very cool!! I've been wanting to try this myself. There are some guns around from various police cars and the gangbusters Lincoln kit. I've seen some get casted and offered on EBay. Shapeways is also a great source for guns and such. One of the resin casters for Scale Production in Europe offers the 4 door body from time to time, but it's about $100. He emailed me one time when it was available and naturally I was too broke at the time. Well done though! Looks like you had fun.
  13. Thanks! 1992 is exactly the year I was going for. I found a lot of reference photos taken from when they were being closed. & based it off the one I used to frequent in my home town.
  14. Here is a fun Blockbuster video diorama made as a backdrop for my club's 80s minitruck build off. Completely scratchbuilt. Working on the parking lot.. more pics to come!

    39 Chevy bomb

    Thanks, yeah it is. Wanted to add that element in there, but not to take away from the otherwise mild demeanor. So the headliner was a perfect spot.

    39 Chevy bomb

    Thanks. The artilleries are resin casts from @classic_scale on Instagram. I believe the orginals were from the 1st issue 36 Ford kit.
