Smart-Resins Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Well, the chassis is done and its on its feet finially. The interior is almost done. Not very much left to do except the motor! Woohoo! I may actually finish two in one month? LOL. This is fun! Dont know why I ever tried not to finish a model before. LOL. J/K. Jody
kyledr330 Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Looking really good Jody! I like the flame job!
Smart-Resins Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 hey, no fair, you have a model in your model! LOL. Jody
kyledr330 Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Looking really good Nick, that interior looks like it took some time to make.
Nick Winter Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 hey, no fair, you have a model in your model! LOL. Jody I got some of these from a friend of mine and this is being built as I would have this car, so a light truck model is a must. your coming along nicely kiddo thanks Eelco, I have a few things to add and then it's done.
Nick Winter Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Looking really good Nick, that interior looks like it took some time to make. not really it was a normal interior, painted and assembled, only things I really did were make 5 1/25th scale 8 tracks and a 8 track player, add a CB, add some photo reduced stuff, and some stuff I had laying around.
diymirage Posted January 11, 2010 Author Posted January 11, 2010 thanks Eelco, I have a few things to add and then it's done. i kinda meant the your skillz in general but i guess the car is coming along too
Pete1980 Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) Ok so I need some ideas...I can stay with what I got but its to scale about 3" tubing and do the rest in somthing smaller or I can redo it in all the same size.My link Edited January 12, 2010 by Pete1980
Jason Vandergriff Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 leave what ya got and Add some smaller to it for the rest of the mounting brackets.
charlie8575 Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 Nice work everyone. Nick, that interior is stunning. I love the 8-tracks scattered. Do you have a 1/25 8-track player for it, too? Charlie Larkin

When am I gonna get put on the list? Just curious. as soon as you remind me what it is you are building again i gues with over 40 entries one was bound to slip through
charlie8575 Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 Well, I can finally put some pictures up. This, again is a Revell 1966 GTO. I wasn't too happy when I opened the box, and discovered the decals for the redlines stuck to each other. Oh well, off they come, and I'll probably just use some dry-transfers from Shabo or S.E., Ltd. The exhaust was a pain, and I might need to reglue a piece of the front-end. It appears everything had the tiniest amount of warpage, and it was just enough to spring a lot of it. The exhaust, so far has been the worst part of this kit, as it has no positive locator points on the chassis plate. I still need to attach the shocks, but I'm trying to figure out how to do it, and again, lack of positive locators and poor instruction diagrams don't help. Top and front views of the engine. The engine in this kit is gorgeous, and even with just minimal painting, looks really good when it's done, and its assembly is very easy. I'm leaving the oil filler neck off until I'm just about done. The interior was painted using Model Master Chrysler Engine Blue over white Tamyia bottle primer. I cleared it with Micro-Flat and Micro-Satin. I may give it a second coat of Mirco-Satin, as it's still a bit shiny. Various components awaiting assembly. Enjoy. Charlie Larkin
Smart-Resins Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 I jst bought a extra sheet of those decals from that kit. If you need the red line decals, let me know. Jody
Brizio Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 Add me please to the list. I have a project on mi mind and I hope to find the kit and start it!
