New project started, Plastic Undercover theme build. Starting with the Revell Bronco and VCG Resin 3” lift kit. Let’s see where this goes. Josh makes some wonderful pieces and communicates well, he always kept me updated.

Thats a good kit. I had a little trouble with the windshield frame. I should've fit the top in place, then put the windshield frame in place prior to gluing it.

I will take your advice and test fit beforehand. 
 

I had a few minutes today so I started cleaning up the chassis and filling the front of the frame rails. IMG_0010.jpeg.a61e718162693647ffa391a16a6d5b56.jpeg

Still filling the frame rails and trying a different fuel system. I repositioned the air intake to clear the hood. IMG_0153.jpeg.2d76b778c619de2f8109a57d3dbb0d26.jpegIMG_0154.jpeg.bfb4a518451da31fa699cb6c8db13e67.jpeg

Getting some things fabbed up, sorted and cleaned up. The VCG resin pieces fit nicely. I made the new roll bars and drive shafts from Evergreen styrene. Most parts are primed and ready for paint. Waiting on fender flares to work on the body. I did glue the windshield frame in place using the top as a guide.

Making progress, engine is 90%, chassis is ready for detail and re- doing the exhaust is ongoing. IMG_0487.jpeg.1208acaf2b5c6be87deddd0392ccfa04.jpegIMG_0486.jpeg.aee60b3ea0e8bb568738840c1986828c.jpeg

Blessed Memorial Day to all who have lost someone….

Working on hood supports and chassis assembly. 
I’ll need to use brass rod for the support the styrene gives to much. Chassis detail to follow….IMG_0511.jpeg.60d35ab54ca24a5d5fb74bc11c7f27cc.jpegIMG_0512.jpeg.761d19ae48b87531714ba00d4ce379ed.jpegIMG_0514.jpeg.c96a90aa8dfa1eb61748dfa88323ffe0.jpegIMG_0513.jpeg.6f4cd7e88cb5f23fff702b229736379d.jpeg

Sunday rainy Sunday, some little bits and details. Seats, belts, brake master cylinder and new hood supports. I guess the color is obvious.  IMG_0567.jpeg.47027e16aeba4db458696546914f3e84.jpeg
