mr moto Posted January 7, 2023 Author Share Posted January 7, 2023 THANK YOU, EVERYONE!!! I'm kind of blown away by the reaction and all the great replies. It's really kind of a simple build and just done for fun. I have to say that I see much better work by so many of you every day on this very site so I just can't tell you how much it means. I have a little history with the car/boat thing having done one before. Here's a few shots of the pair of them sitting on the workbench and in the spray booth. The other one is called the "Hydro Hawk". It's made from a Jimmy Flintstone (I think) resin 1951 Studebaker and the old AMT 3 in 1 speedboat.

Maindrian Pace Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Both of them look great, and both look completely plausible as functional water craft. Seeing that Corvair on the lake would be a realĀ mind blower for sure, and it's amazing just how well the Studebaker roof lends itself to the boat style.
