That's too cool Tom! Is that a widened Milk Trike kit? Great way to reinvent a kit. I'm working on one now too, I turned mine into a C cab. If you want check it out

So many awesome mock-ups here!

I did finish this one but here is the mock-up.

I started with a Dish network remote.

In Car Model magazine,  somebody once used a scoop

Very nice mock-ups friends.  Over the past year I have fooled around trying parts on  a couple 32 Ford bodies I got from a late friend’s collection.  
Tonight I mocked them up to try to gain some inspiration to complete them.  I hope you enjoy them.  Comments and criticisms welcome and happy building everyone!-Mark

I’ve had this survivor amt 29 ford roadster for a couple of years, it keeps popping up while I’m searching for parts, someday I’ll have to find the motivation to put it together.

My name is Ken, and I have an addiction. 3D Printing!

I'll pick up a kit, look at the wheels, "No, there has to be better." Next thing you know, I wake up and there's 3 different bodies printing, f250 crew cab, box van and a civic. WTH?... I was only looking for wheels!?

Well here's the civic in mockup...

Not sure if I'm going stock, JDM, or lowrider 

Would love to know where you got the civic.

Looking great so far.

What did you use for the cylinders, push rods, heads and rocker covers ??

Thank you for your question - the pushrods and cylinder sleeves are scratchbuilt from aluminum; the heads, rocker covers and intake are from an old Imex harley kit.

A little what if, 74 mpc cuda with the front of the monogram 71 front. It’s narrowed and sectioned to fit, the car was a basket case to begin with. I also added the hood from the aar cuda from Revell. It’s very rough but if I had a 1:1 that is how I’d like it to look, four round headlight with four round taillights and no gills on the fenders.

#1 rule of modeling, don't start another project until you finish one. Oops!  The Countach is getting close. I started it 15 years ago, damaged chassis, but couldn't part with the body that I've polished a few times over the years. New kit = new chassis, so getting close to the finish line. Next up is a pro-street Cutlass using the chassis from the '66 Nova. I'll put a 3D printed LS motor in it. Still lots to decide on this one, though.
