Thanks Jon ! Thank you very much Michael ! Thanks Trevor ! It was my daily driver for about 10 years , get to drive and got lots of looks too !

Here they are . . . actually there are SIX articles . https://public.fotki.com/TooOld/models/misc-/magazine-articles/dodge-fever-ii-wip-/

Some of you may have seen this one before . Built in 2013 it's a replica of an El Camino I owned many years ago , it had a 283 / 4 speed and was painted Roman Red with the Impala trim . In 2019 I redid it adding the poseable steering and the correct wheels and tires which I couldn't find in 2013 . It's built using a Revell '60 Impala with the roof and bed from the AMT '59 El Camino grafted on . I had to lengthen the bed about 1/4 " to line everything up , and modified the tailgate and rear bumper . I used the Revell chassis and modified it to show the bed floor and added a correct gas tank . The headers and exhaust were made from aluminum rod . The engine and tranny are from the revel '63 Impala . With the '60 Station wagon being reissued soon I'm planning another El Camino project and maybe a Sedan Delivery too . Thanks for lookin' ! And here's the original WIP thread from 2013 . . .

Beautiful El Camino Tim ! Love that Viper Blue with the vinyl top ! As an owner of seven 1:1 El Caminos (my avatar is one) over the years they are obviously my favorite . Almost every time I've posted a model of an El Camino or Ranchero in the Cars section it has been moved to the Trucks section , good old Harry was the only one that agreed they are more car than truck . . . good luck !

Thanks EMRE ! I have the '73 Laguna kit also , may be next on my bench .

Thanks much Dave !

I never meant that you had to remove the radiator and fix it , just making a friendly suggestion for next time . But now that you did fix it . . . WOW what a difference ! Good luck in the contest , you've got a winner there !

Very cool model Adam ! All of the brass era cars were works of art .

Great looking model , well done Mark !

Thanks very much Bob !

Another excellent build , well done !

Beautifully done !

Thanks Hector !

Geautiful paint and excellent detailing , well done Bruce ! If I may make one suggestion . . . The mold parting line on top of the radiator is one of the most obvious and overlooked details , it should be removed .

Beautiful '70 Tim ! It looks great with the vinyl top and C-Stripes !

Excellent detailing , well done !

Thanks Tim !

Beautiful work Scott ! Good luck at NNL !

As a Show Rod fan this one has never been very high on my list but that's a real beauty ! Great job !
