Eric Macleod Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Here is my meager offering of finished builds for this year. While not as productive as many of you it was a good year for me.
wayne swayze Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Interesting....... and well done collection for'15. Hope to see more of your work.
Dann Tier Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Great job!! I especially like the Lincoln! I only finished one this year myself.
Eric Macleod Posted December 28, 2015 Author Posted December 28, 2015 Thanks guys. The '26 Fordor was by far the most challenging of the set though the foil work on the Lincoln was quite a job also. There were several more that I wanted to see complete but did not get there this year. At the top of the list is the Duesenberg Judkins Victoria that has been on my workbench for over a decade, closely followed by the '30 Cord L-29 that has been an ongoing project for (and I am not kidding ) over 35 years. Then there's the '34 Packard Dietrich and the rest of the Improved Ford set from '26-7. And now I add the '30 something Ford Coupe street rod project that I find myself oddly intrigued with. Lots to do.
bbowser Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Love that bread van! Looking forward to those you have on the bench. I've been debating the Packard Dietrich, how is it as a kit?
peter31a Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 Love the finished projects as well as the in progress ones. I really appreciate that you have a fondness for cars from the classic era. And with the Gilmore nearby, for you it would be easy to do research, I should imagine.
Monty Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 Nice collection! They all look great but I really like that Lincoln. Would you mind telling me what specific red paint you used on it? It looks perfect on that car.
Eric Macleod Posted December 29, 2015 Author Posted December 29, 2015 I really appreciate the comments guys. As for the Packard it is a Franklin Mint '34 Convertible Sedan modified from scratch by me...not my most successful job so far but I intend to keep at it. Rather sheepishly I have to admit that the Lincoln is painted with Testo rs rattle can dark red over DupliColor red rattle can primer. Not the most suphistocate job but it worked. I rubbed it out with McGuire ' s clear plastic polish, intended for convertible top rear windows. The van is the All American Models resin kit with the a bunch of parts box items to complete the model.
