Mr. Can Am Garage

Nice job Billy!

Thanks Bill. I've got a few other goodies I wanna build in scale along this line. Hopefully, I'll get to them this winter and yes, I know it's just starting on summer.

Someone over at SA asked so I thought I'd share at two places. Good way to kill two birds with one stone IMHO. My rotisserie is scratchbuilt from a couple of sizes of K&S Brass tubing and soldered together. It was also my first time soldering. Like a 1:1, it's positionable. It's also adjustable for different sized car bodies. Yeah. I know. There's no wheels and that's because I haven't come up with a suitable solution to that problem yet. Here's the set of plans I drew up before I ordered any K&S.

Daryl, Here's a link to the scans. http://public.fotki.com/jkdezan/the_world_...mt_69_chevelle/ If this doesn't work for you, LMK. I'll keep the originals on my computer till my weekly cleaning on Monday.

I could scan my copy of the coupe instructions for ya. Shouldn't be too many differences between the coupe and the convertible besides the boot. LMK.

Personally, sprint car wheels and tires are not something I want/need. However, I'm sure the others might have other ideas.

Thanks Bob! It means alot coming from you. If I were to do another (not gonna happen BTW), I think I'd go for black like the one I found for reference on eBay Motors. The dark body colour really makes the interior, chrome and aluminium "pop".

Thanks guys! It was a fun 8 day build.

The only "problem" and it's not really a problem was getting the finished chassis/interior into the body as the body has lots of "tumblehome". In other words, it really curves under. It's fiddly work more than anything else.

Revell's kit painted (IIRC) Testors German Silver Metallic.

I stand corrected. Please do your best to make the return to the world of the written world.

You may not be seen often but you'll never be forgotten George. Any chance that GMP will consider doing their new 1/12 (?) driver figures as recently reviewed in HMM as in our scale?

You don't suppose there's a reason for that, do you?

Welcome aboard Pat.

Nice job Izzy!

Jackson and the boys have had this one finished for a few days now. Inspiration came from this: and this: The last image is courtesy of Showtime Muscle Cars.

Beautiful job Bill! The colour sure suits the body lines.

The Challenger would now be considered a runner if it were 1:1. It's not street legal but I don't think that would stop Jackson from taking her for a late night shakedown run.

There's more done that what you see here but this should keep you for a bit.

Love it! I've got the Skyline and I'm considering this one if I can ever get the Skyline finished. Too many projects and nout enough hours in the day.

Thanks! Um....You can't afford him Bill if you have to ask how much he charges.

Here's where things are at after working like a dog for most of the day. That front suspension will be installed shortly after getting off the 'net tonight. Need to finish detailing the air cleaner. The interior and related components still need alot of work.

You sure got the right shade for the leather.

How about the beginings of a '70 Challenger T/A painted F4? Chassis is partially paint detailed at this point. Lots of (ugly) white plastic. The 340.
