WickedWelder Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 Heres some pics of a 79 that Im building to match the 1:1 that I had many yrs ago.. Let me know what ya'll think Thanks for looking Gary
highway Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 Looks nice so far! I had a 1:1 years ago, too, it was red with the white cap. I plan to build mine someday. Did your 1:1 have air conditioned floors where you could watch the road go by like mine did?
WickedWelder Posted June 7, 2010 Author Posted June 7, 2010 It did when I first got it, but that was fixed soon after. I didnt like the whole Flintstone brake idea....lol
RodneyBad Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 It's looking good. I like what ya did to the headlights. White wash?

Wayne Buck Posted June 8, 2010 Posted June 8, 2010 It's looking good. I like what ya did to the headlights. White wash? I was wondering that too. I thought they maybe were decals because they both look exactly the same. They don't really look like decals though...
WickedWelder Posted June 8, 2010 Author Posted June 8, 2010 Coopdad over on http://offroadmodels.proboards.com/index.cgi posted a website were you can print the headlights. I just printed them, cut to fit and glued them on. I think they came out pretty good. Heres the site if you want to check it out.... http://www.magazinepublisher.com/models/headlights.pdf Thanks for the compliments. Hopefully Ill have some more pics soon. Thanks for looking Gary
