well i finished building another of my own castings yesterday. 49 ford ute. i did a lot to make this one happen since it was originally a fiberglass body and front of it was brittle. i also found out that i couldnt superglue fiberglass to a plastic body. ended up coating it all with smear of resin to make halfs stay together. then i put a ranger bed inside. i used the 49 for kit under it. build #621 got body 5/9/24 10.00 built 4/24/25 thanx glen damodelguy

my 41 buick body recreation, into a chopped coupe. my resin bodies involve your creativity also in finding chassis, interiors, oh and dont forget, fitting windows. i built my 41 buick with a 41 ford woody donor kit. (you my think of a different donor) chassis was lengthened 1/4 back at the rear end area of the frame. it has a second piece of the x frame so it can be used for strength. i also moved the rear back a little to sit in the skirt area a little nicer, and also to lower its stance. i also cut the front axle to move it forward a little, also to lower it. i used the kit pipes but changed the mufflers to make up the added frame lenght. used kit interior, with side panels trimed to fit. hood is solid so i put the kits motor in it. im not as much of a detail person as many are. i built for collection shelf presentation, try to get the parts in place, but not wired, tubed, or even colored up. cant be seen, and wont be judged. im about different, and helping to show you can work outside the box, BOXES i say. tidbit, fellow model buddy, tom w, suggested grinding out from back to put the grille in this body. it worked very well. thanx Tom, im building 3 of these bodies, 1 is a 3rd reconstruction not yet finished to mold yet. so i was working on 3 complete chassis at same time, for the 3 builds and thanx for lookin glen

very bizzy year, mines slightly different. i still love to build my creations, but i create my builds and cast them first. ive created 34 bodies that ive casted and listed, sold 336, and built 12 for the year. i have 40 of my creations i haven't been able to build yet. got to make time for more of that this year more often. thanx for lookin. builds are single car pics
-
so i finally made some time to start building on some of my creations. i always liked this hardtop ready for the track, so i designed it with some tubs for the possible. bashing my body with 55 chevy nomad interior tub and the 57 chevy pro sportsman kit. i thought i had the tires lined in the wells, but had to adjust with spacer at firewall to. i might be getting a little carried away, but we see what we see and head for the finish line. well see! glen damodelguy thanx for lookin
-
well i finally finished a build thats been close for a while, but kept sitting new ideas in front of it. finished my 53 studacuda fastback last night 10/9/24 i actually built it using the 53 studebaker kit as donor. i did have the parts from the built parts cuda, so i used the windows and motor from it. thanx for looking, glen damodelguy

finished up building finally another of my creations. 37 cord coupe built 10/9/24. i ended up building mine with the kit parts. was going to street rod it, and put a 36 ford chassis maybe under it with a v8. but the color, had it a rumble seat instead if closing the trunk and added a spare on the rear, felt like it needed a more stock look. thanx for looking, glen damodelguy
-
so i started with the 34 panel and cut it, and added a 34 ford bed and 34 ford sedan fenders, once created, mold and cast and built mine with parts from a parts car 33 willys coupe kit. was gonna build with 34 ford coupe kit, but decided to build gasser something like one i seen at gnrs. thanx for lookin, glen damodelguy
-
finally got to finish building my created comino. kitbashed with a 86 chevy el comino and and one of my 51 studebaker sm window bodies. i used a built parts kit 86 chevy el comino as my donor kit for chassis, interior, motor. this built 8/28/24. glen damodelguy oh, for those that wonder how this roadrunner is pushing out pieces so quick. i have resins that i worked at interiors and chassis for them while back when i created the bodies. was up to about 27 i hadnt made time to build for awhile, and have taken about 5 weeks to just work on building. no creating, molding or casting in those 5 weeks. felt great! thanx for lookin, glen

this was originally a metal body kit but it seems to run like 1/26th scale kinda. not fun to cut up and clean up. 49 merc roof gave it a bad azz water bug look. well to me. used the merc interior and since i had the caddy kit i used its chassis. but i did play with the caddy chassis also. the color was a car i seen at gnrs outside in february this year. thanx for lookings. glen damodelguy
-
build of my kitbash, of a 53 stud and a 59 el comino resin. i used the studebaker chassis and interiors with alterations to fit. lowered suspension, since roof is 59 i could use the windows and 59 dash to help make the interior width. thanx for looking. glen damodelguy still need to find (forgot)some taillights when i took pick.
-
decided to create on a 5 window to see what a 3 window might look like. i liked what one might look like. used the rest of the 5 window kit to build it. thanx for looking glen damodelguy
-
cant find time! decided its time to make time, to build some of my creations again. been awhile, jumping back in got a little involved with the vision i had for mine. added big tubs for my vision when i created the body originally. i kit bashed with 57 chevy pro sportsman kit. changed back tires from kit. lotta alterations to make visual bash. interior was a amt 55 chevy nomad, extending the chassis of the 55 nomad, would have been so much easier. but it about OUR vision, and working toward it. ill probably use the 55 nomad extended chassis and interior to do my 57 buick panel. thanx for the look. glen damodelguy
-
this is my recreated 54 chevy chopped pickup. i was lookin for bad azz with some meat on the pavement and blown for some boogie. i used a 55 nomad chassis under it since my creative bodies are just body kits. i like chopped looks, but some are little to much.
