evilone Posted June 18, 2008 Author Posted June 18, 2008 Why extend it? Its not stopping you guys from building. cuz he cant post pics so he could say its done when it really isn't (NOT SAYIN HE WOULD BUT ITS A POSSABLE THING)
Custom Hearse Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 It's working again.... But for how long? I've re-shaped the taillights in preparation for the custom body work.... Next I'll cut up the front end to customize it. Stay tuned!

evilone Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 NIIIIICE!!!!!! lovin the work on both. I think evils pulling ahead a little but I dont think we should count Custom out me thinks theres sumthin up them there sleeves. Yo evil on caskets might I suggest the old school look of a vintage diamond shaped pine box w/ redvelvet interior i was thinking that myself and i know custom is up to something i just dont know what and i cant wait to see it
evilone Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 me either bro , me either. like i said b-4 you guys have me 100% hooked on this build-off, I was having withdrawals waiting for the updates. Loving the progress - keep up the goodwork bro PS still not much luck w/ the gurneys but I am still looking. im on Vacatin next week and panning a couple journeys to far off hobby shops so heres hoping. cool keep me in the loop as for the build off i have something big under my sleeves and ill show it when its done the suspense will kill you but vary few people do it now a days
Jairus Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Holy Cow Marshall, what kind of camera are you using? This shot is pretty cool!!!!
Don Banes Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 I have a first issue AMT Ecto, and I've thought of building it as a non-Ecto ride. I WILL NOT BE OPENING DOORS, HOOD, OR ANYTHING ELSE ON THAT MODEL! I'm thinking more of a semi-pro-street ride, with nice, smooth paint. However, I DO like the examples posted above!
evilone Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 Lemme guess, a fully functional, in-scale flame throwing exhaust????????????? maybe yo check out "my favorite collection" topic it has all my caddies im currently working on now

Custom Hearse Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 (edited) Holy Cow Marshall, what kind of camera are you using? This shot is pretty cool!!!! Thanks Jairus! I use a Canon Powershot A-620 7.1 mega pixels.... Canon's have been my favorite cameras for a long time. It gets nice close ups.... Edited June 25, 2008 by Custom Hearse
Custom Hearse Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Here's my latest update. I haven't done much to the hearse lately, been pretty busy. I've started the custom bodywork on the front end, here's the pics.... I leaned the headlights forward, and I'll start the taillights next.... Side view.... Another side view.... Comparison to original headlights.... My stretch hearse build next to the build off hearse.... Taillight update soon!
abedooley Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 WOW!! This thread really took off today!!! I can't wait to see the finished results! IT'S GONNA BE SWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTT!!!!!
Custom Hearse Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Well.... I decided to work on the custom console instead.... I'll get to the taillights soon. He4re's the console.... Right side.... Left side.... With dash.... Close up.... Farther back.... More to come soon, stay tuned!
Custom Hearse Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 ATTACK OF THE GREEN GOOP!!!! Here's an update of the rear fender customizing work.... I took some sheet plastic, glued it to the body, then added Evercoat two part putty to it.... Then I shaped it with sandpaper.... After I shape the right side, I'll touch it up with some more putty, then do the final shaping. I'll be adding more plastic and putty to it to make the front and rear roll pans. More on that later. Until then, Stay tuned!
abedooley Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 LOOKIN SWEEEET CUSTOM!!!! Nice SEAMLESS body work there!! Cant wait for more!!!!

abedooley Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 What kind of filler is that green goop?? I need to get some to fill in the gauges on my dash so I can use the PE parts I ordered.. or is there a better kind I can get for that application??
Custom Hearse Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 What kind of filler is that green goop?? I need to get some to fill in the gauges on my dash so I can use the PE parts I ordered.. or is there a better kind I can get for that application?? It's Evercoat Polyester putty, sold in automotive stores. It's the best putty I've ever used! It's a 2 part putty that dries in a 1/2 hour, sands very easily, and never shrinks! A bottle of it will last at least 2-3 years(unless you're like me and use it on everything, including the crack in my head!!! ). I swear by the stuff, it works great!
evilone Posted June 28, 2008 Author Posted June 28, 2008 "deghostbusterfied"is that even a word??? way to up the ante w/ the read wood, but a Hydraulic Hearse NICE TOUCH!!!!!!!!!! OBTW youre already KILLING ME w/ the SUSPENCE yes it is a word that i made up LOL
Custom Hearse Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 Thanks Led! That is nicest comment I've ever gotten about my work. I really appreciate hearing that, it makes it nice to know I'm doing something right. Thanks again!
Clay Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 I agree with led, its always the small mods that make a model look smooth, i.e. shaved door handles and emblems and small custom work. Good work Custom, keep it up.
