hello all. having just had surgery on my right arm, my model building activities have been put on hold for a while. to make up the time, i thought i would join this forum and share my builds and do some research for future projects. this is the little red wagon dodge, and the inspiration behind it was the ricky couch dodge from the 90's and an illustration from rod and custom. to be different, i made it right hand drive and added suicide doors. there are lots of scratchbuilt modified kit parts. these are complimented with aftermarket parts from r b motion, s & s specialties, detail master, scale repros plus and micro nitro to name a few. a bonus with this model was that the rear suspension is funtional, with scratchbuilt parts and coil over shocks from r b motion.

Outstanding build Steve. Can't wait to see more of your stuff.

Hope that arm heals up fast, so you can get back to work on your models.

Welcome to MCM forums.

It looks real to me, seems much larger than a scale model of any size :D Impressive work on those details! Very well done ~ hope your arm heals up soon!

thanks guys. photos done in natural light make all the difference. the headers are from the revell 69 dodge charger kit, with scratchbuilt exhaust tips.

thanks guys. i hope that this will be an inspiration for different dodge A100 trucks, and i wonder if anyone has used the jimmy flintstone bodies?

I love a detailed TF motor and that A100 has got a great one.

Sweet paint and clean execution as well. Welcome to the forums, you'll fit in quite nicely here.

thanks guys. i'm getting plastered, but sadly not through alcohol, my arm is being put in a cast tomorrow.

the engine was out a top fuel car, a revell one i think, although i did use single ignition valve cover from a revell 69 dodge charger as well as the headers.
