This build is too cool. Gives me some great ideas. Can’t wait to see it finished -
Well after giving me fits and having to be put away a couple of times I decided to hammer away at this one and finish it. Based on a sedan that belongs to a guy I know. I’ve included a pic of the real one too.

Looks nice! Where did you get the wheels and tires?

Thanks. Here is the link. https://stock.adobe.com/search?k=mexican+blanket the best part about it was that I didn’t even have to change the size of the image.

Thanks. It will be all white except the dash. I will paint it the same turquoise as the wheels.

So I had an idea. I taped a Kleenex to a piece of paper and printed off a pattern that I found online. The Kleenex is very brittle and double thick so I only used the top layer and stuck it to a piece of masking tape. I then used double sided scotch tape to apply it to the seat and then trimmed the excess. It isn’t perfect but I think it will work.

Lookin good. Where did you get the tires? -
Not a whole lot to show yet. I did make new landing gear and wrapped the wheels with 3/64 rod to make them fit the tires better. My plan is to put this behind a western star day cab.

Ok, back at it. I’ve been dragging this one out for 4 years now. It’s time to finish it. With a little luck I hope to have it finished within the week. Here is a pick of how it sits.

Fresh off the bench!! Probably the quickest build I have ever done. Started on it about 6 days ago and only worked on it in the evenings after the wife and kids went to bed. Color is Chrysler ceramic blue with urethane clear. 100% box stock. Kinda hard for me to do but I needed something to enter in the box stock class at an upcoming show.

Revell chopper

Ok. Got it stripped and a new silver base laid down. This time I am using solvent based paint for everything. Also finished the making exhaust and wrapped the pipes. -
Thanks everyone for the great comments. Just wish revell would reissue this one soon.

I did attach the top first and filled the seam. For the roof panel I just stuck a piece of black duct to the kit insert.
