Bullybeef Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Been wanting to do a diorama for a long time. Finally got my hands on a joes garage for a really great price. It was previously started and has some details that will change. Repurposed gas station turns hot rod shop. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullybeef Posted January 2 Author Share Posted January 2 Started out with trying out a floor plan, the original builder had added a separating wall that in my eyes was taking up a lot of floor space. I may delete the exterior bathroom doors. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBLNG Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Cool! I got this kit a few years ago and never really got into it. I’d love to see what you do with it.😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does take up quite a bit of space 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Cool. I worked for several years in a "traditional" rod shop that wasn't much bigger than that. Some of the best and most satisfying work I ever did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Bill, so far I’ve just kinda mocked this up and threw some litter in there to get a feel for how it’s gonna lay out I’ve dispensed with the idea of having an office area, so the difference in the floor colour will stay. I’m looking into fabrication of a compressor but I may leave that idea as an outside the back of the shop item. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamadon Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Just saw a build review on hpiguys workshop of this kit. Apparently MRC has re-issued it. I thought I had enough kits but apparently not. Will be watching your build. Don R 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullybeef Posted September 6 Author Share Posted September 6 Spent some time adding some stains to the floor and a bit of colour to the walls! It’s starting to come together. Not sure if the lift is staying but it adds a nice touch to the garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
