Picked this up a few weeks ago at the local Hobby Lobby on sale.Figured this would be the sloset I could get to a gbody Cutlass for now..Got the body already painted and use the stripes from the kit...The engine and interior is almost done (no pics) and Iam still working on the chassis
Been working on these things like crazy this weekend......Got alot done and getting about halfway now....Think Im gonna pic up some wires for the motor..
Well almost got this one done...Been working on it alot this weekend....Still up in the air about the hood.....Its not a good quality hood IMO..If not Im gonna order some cowls and just make my own
The doors from a Buick are different from the olds....The frames are all the same for all gbody cars(looking for one right now for mine)The glass is probably the same except for quarter windows..
I would really like to see a kit made...Ifits the 83/84 HO or a 87 442.It would be cool to have different options for the front ends too
Its not completely done but its done for now lol....Goota find something ti finish off the grille and some small paint details ,but its done...
Heres the build thread http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=58076&st=0
No I havent but once the rest of the shassis is done it will raise it a little..I done one like this before and didnt have issues.(I think lol)
The green is Duplicolor metal speeks shimmering green and the gold is Duplicolor sunburst gold metallic...Factory Ford color
Thanks for the info..I found some old platic to make windsheilds from an old kit I had and will be using it..
And thanks everyone..Its almost getting there...Trying to find a photo etch parts for the grille but no luck
