Lindberg 1/8 Big Red Rod. Not so red anymore...

Long time no post, but thought I'd share this T Bucket i just finished. This is the chromeless kit from Ollie's but the lack of chrome didn't deter me from not making it into something that would love to own in real life. I did use some parts from Revell's Big Deuce and made some of my own too. I did raise the spring perch on the front and Z'ed the frame in the rear to get it to sit lower then Lindberg had it. The paint is Apple Barrel Pumpkin Orange. But here is my take on this kit.

That thing is HUGE! I love it, what an awesome looking build.

Nice job. These big scale Lindberg kits don't get the love compared to the Monogram stuff. But you've shown that with a little love they can sparkle.

That turned out really nice!.... ??

Can't wait to get started on my Tall-T build......?

[Sixties Sam]

Best version of that kit I've ever seen! Nice work!
