atomicholiday Posted October 22, 2023 Posted October 22, 2023 Got these mirrors finished for my Boxster project. The kit doesn’t come with any parts for the mirror glass, so I cut them out of very thin plastic sheet and foiled them. Not perfect, but far better than nothing at all. 1

Slotto Posted October 23, 2023 Posted October 23, 2023 Completed the headers using solder and added some wiring. Managed to get the motor low enough so the hood closes Closed the tailgate and got the body up off the ground by fabbing up some lower control arms and spindles 3

Great work.? I’m really into that Nova. I have a similar idea brewing. I was thinking of taking two Ollie’s kits and doing something crazy with them, one of them being that Nova. We’ll see. 1
atomicholiday Posted October 23, 2023 Posted October 23, 2023 This one is getting really close now. Will I actually finish a build this year??? That sound you hear is me knocking on wood.? 1
Dpate Posted October 24, 2023 Posted October 24, 2023 (edited) Got some paint on the CBR1000 RR-R engine block. Two of my favorite Tamiya LP colors titanium silver, and Mica Silver. Edited October 24, 2023 by Dpate 3

PatW Posted October 28, 2023 Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) An old Tamiya VW Karmann Ghia, now lowered, seats in and roll cage. Is it a salt speeder/rally car or what? Edited October 28, 2023 by PatW 1

Lownslow Posted November 3, 2023 Posted November 3, 2023 Remodeling my bench, new setup will have 3d printed inserts that go in the pocket mounted with velcro so i can change it out or rearrange 1
atomicholiday Posted November 5, 2023 Posted November 5, 2023 I picked up this ‘70 MPC Jeepster glue bomb yesterday, so this morning I did a little disassembly. These parts are headed for the purple pond now. It’ll probably be a while before I actually do anything else with this kit, but I want to see what I have to work with. Notice the small army contingent in the background. They were in the box with the Jeepster. Must have been guarding it and keeping it safe for me!? 1
Lownslow Posted November 10, 2023 Posted November 10, 2023 finished the big tuck dually fender, its not a stock fender its wider and taller to tuck big dually wheels when slammed
Lownslow Posted November 11, 2023 Posted November 11, 2023 Results of the scanned bed. Custom shaved tailgate with frenched plate, Roll pan with maltese cutouts, and custom cadillac taillight housings. 1
wrenchr Posted November 13, 2023 Posted November 13, 2023 Been in a building slump, or just summer time but I have had this snap F150 kit and put it together. I just painted the chassis and interior and dull coated the headlights and wheels. I used some novus plastic cleaner and wax on the body. Fun quick build. 1
catpack68 Posted November 13, 2023 Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) Primed my 71 Rally Nova project this afternoon.The wheels and tires are Zman items Ive had for awhile.The LS engine and 6 speed trans is from TX3d Customs with an Iceman Collections LS mid rise intake. I will be using an old set of Fred Cady Rally Nova decals I’ve had for years. Going to try to finish this one up before the end of the year. Edited November 13, 2023 by catpack68 2
