Recommended Posts

Well, I have a couple more projects that I wanna really work on and finish before the end of the year.

First up is a '26 Ford.

So far I have the stock frame pieced together which will be Z'ed. And I have chopped the top.

Thanks Chris!

Alright, so last night I managed to cut the bed floor out on the '34. And make a wood floor with some craft sticks.

Today I have the body in primer and the wood has been stained to look old using some old paint thinner.

The '26 is Revell. I coulda just bought a resin chopped body, but its more fun to do it myself. LOL

Thanks bro!

Well I got the cab of this one the way I want it to look.

Acrylic paint sponged on. Let it dry and took some rubbing alcohol and a toothbrush and started scrubbing and came up with this.
