Dave Van Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 One more Mad Max model complete. After finishing 9.5 stalled projects I allowed myself to start a new one....with the promise of no stalling if I did. In the film the lead Citadel vehicle of Imortain Joe is a 1950 4 door Jaguar. Needless to say no plastic kit of said Jag in my stash. But when I saw the film I thought it was a Rolls Royce and reminded me of the old Minicraft RR kit. Grabbed one from the stash and saw it was close enough to use. Replaced the grille with a 37 Chevy grille turned 180 degrees. Cut off the roof, left off the trunk. Some parts box stuff...made the trunk mounted gun, chopped the windshield and made a front bumper from brass. Being an official vehicle I did not weather it as much.....trying to match the car as it looked at the start of the film. Thanks for looking...
Slomoslam Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 I can't get enough of these, very cool. WITNESS!!!
Yahshu Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 very cool, I still don't accept fury road as a Mad Max movie
spencer1984 Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) These look great, but can we get some more pics of that front end? Edited March 16, 2016 by spencer1984
bobthehobbyguy Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Hice work. It would be fun to drive to a concors just to watch the purists go into shock.
JTalmage Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 I love it! Are the rear tires from the Jeep Rubicon?

Zarana-X Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Looks pretty convincing for it being the wrong car.
Lovefordgalaxie Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 I like your creativity a lot. The car looks very cool. You captured the spirit of the thing quite well.
Hubert Rollins Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 You certainly are a creative dude- that's a neat build.
