Sixties Sam Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Hey, all. Here are my 16 for '16, gathered at the ice cream stand diorama for photos. The campers are scratch built. The 41 Ford wrecker is a resin cab on scratch built frame, bed, and boom. The Model T truck has a scratch built body. The Cobra is a rebuild of one I built in the 1960's. Jaguar is a metal body. Fun builds - all of them. Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyRed Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Looks like a fun time at The Frosty Cup! I'm really digging the Ford wrecker. Wouldn't mind seeing some more pics of that. Campground dio should be cool too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenGuthmiller Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Makes me feel a little "inadequate" when I see how productive some of us were last year! Nice bunch Sam.  Steve  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyRed Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Kevin here is a link to my post on the wrecker. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/111043-scratch-built-1941-ford-coe-wrecker-finished/SamThanks! Yes, I'm decided, I definitely love it. I'm guessing you didn't do a WIP on it, I would have really loved to have seen your build in progress. I plan on doing a '66 Chevy wrecker as a replica of the one we had used at our family's auto body shop. I drove it for 15 years, and it was a workhorse into the late '90s. I'll have to scratch build a large part of it for what I have planned I think. The problem is it might be a little beyond my skill level at this point. I guess if I don't try I'll never know so we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixties Sam Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 Here's a link to the "on the workbench" post, Kevin. It was a pretty simple build, although the boom took some effort! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
