It would be better If round2 would produce a few modern trailers as well as the reissue's that they are putting out. Such as a modern auto carrier, grain, lowboy, flat bed with adjustable rear wheel axles, livestock, milk, ect. some with those aerodynamic skirts under the trailer such as dry good's and refidgerated trailers now have.

Jimmy Flintstone's 60 chevy delivery.
ranma posted a topic in Truck Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I'll post the pictures soon of this resin body eventhough the body is incorrect as a delivery it does build into a decent kit given that you'll have to rework a monogram 60 impala parts to fit correctly. I had to trim the top of the door panels off and trim the chassie side overhangs to get a proper fit. other than that the monogram parts fit well, to correctly do the rear tail light area you'll need three of the tail light's as the Wagon had a strait across tail light Chrome. So to do this correctly you'll need to cut both tail light chrome parts at the drop point's the third Chrome tail light cuts cut in the same mannor . Also the 60 chevy wagon has only four tail lights so the third rings need trimmed out on both tail lights the third Chrome piece will need two rings removed and cut between the the first and second light ring (the ring on the outside) this will make the third piece of chrome rectangle shaped thus making the rear chrome tail light bar strait. -
I agree with you Harry, Just think what's to stop the computer system that drives that car from getting Hacked. Just another way the someone can kill people not to mention progaming the darn thing to deliver thing's that go BOOM. No thank you I'd rather drive than let a car do so. It's just a bad idea more so these days with groups like al kidia

Here are two more Pictures. car need's the Chrome parts as it didn't come with them. Back tires and axle expected to come soon in the mail. the body before primer and blue paint.

Jimmy Flintstone's 70 El Camino alert!
ranma replied to ranma's topic in Truck Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I won't recommend this resin body as it is not very workable, I ended up completely having to graft a AMT 70 chevelle to it for The Chevelle parts to work correctly. As I was trying to remove un-needed resin behind the head light insert's they broke off the headlight hold's also the hood didn't fit correctly either, and the windshield is another matter to deal with. The suggestion of using a 68 El Camino kit to complete is COMPLETELY WRONG! -
No she had a coupe one with a trunk. it was silver with a purplelish interior. Funny thing about it is when she traded the Ventura in she noted it had a full size spare, and by golly she wasn't buying the J2000 without it having a full size spare tire! Needless to say the Pontiac dealer wanted to make the sale so they took out the compact spare and gave her a full size tire in it's place! It still makes me laugh even though it happened back in 1982! she passed away in 2001 with parkinsons .

First was the Black 69 non judge and Now there is Non Judge #2 painted with Dupli-Color GM quasar Blue.
-
I am not 100% positive but I believe so but her's was a Ventura SJ.
-
Nope, It's the actual 1977 Model kit that I got in a trade deal
-
Built this one for the first time and going to be a Shell Gasoline tanker when I get the decal's for it. I have a Yellow F2674 S-Series that will be pulling it. I added a Measure rod( was a long Fire poker) spear end cut off and painted yellow. air lines are most likely in the wrong place but it's the first time doing airlines.
-
My grandmother next to last Pontiac that she had, her last Pontiac was an 82 J-2000. I really liked her 77 Pontiac though. the Pontiac arrowhead on the front need's to be cleaned up a tad but otherwise it's done.
-
Got this in a trade deal and since most of the parts are going for another project, I decided to Chop a old 66 Chevelle wagon up and use the parts to build THIS 68 Chevy. The project is stalled until july for body filler. I don't want to use testor's brand as It don't seem to work that well. updated photo

Still need's some paint work and bare metal foil work done.

I needed a 54 chevy for my 30 years of Chevrolet collection. Sadly revelle's 53/54 is missing some of the parts to make a "stock" copy. With that being said I then raided an old AMT 51 chevy. the 51 gave up some of the parts I needed to go on the 54, those parts are as follow's tires and rims, engine and the steering wheel. The decal's are from the Jo-Han Ambulance that I recently finished. I'll try and post a few more pictures but for now here are these two. This is a reissue kit I bought last week at Hobby lobby.
-
Well It is now about 99% done just some finishing of some small's but here are more pics.
