gasser59 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Hot dang!!! Randy's back and more than wanting to see this build continue, I'm glad to see you're OK and have not dropped off the edge of the earth. The epic build continues with a new chapter.

Modelbuilder Mark Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 well, you BUILD models, I am a kit basher or assembler at best! LOL Great to watch your work unfold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gluhead Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I know...humbling, right Mark?! I see this and I think "I have a LOT to learn yet!" The shaping of complex parts thing I get. It's the soldering that throws a monkey wrench in the whole thing for me. Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) Great to hear that Randy is Okay and The Rat Rod Wrecker is Back in business!

Randy D Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Hi Folks, Brad, Thank you my friend Thanks Clay Thank you Rob! Thanks Mike, Good to be back! Thank you Greg!! Ryan, Thank you! Thanks Mark! Chris, Thank you, with your skills you would be fine with the metal! Hello Niko!! Thank you for the kind words, I will be getting back on the drag car also! Hi David, thank you and I need to find and check your progress update... I have had a change in thinking as work resumed on this one. Going to go with a hot rod look as opposed to the rat rod that inspired me in the first place. I have been checking out reference pics of 1948 Diamond T trucks and decided to change. Still going to keep the no front fender look and keep it low to the ground, just better looking paint :D Some ref pics.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.C.RACER Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 WOW,WOW,WOW Just MAD skill there. Randy If I may ask what are you using to shield the finished solder joints when you add to the area and not melting that joint apart? Great work and Im learning as you go. Thank you.

JasonFL Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Top notch work! I'm in agreence with everyone else, excellent craftsmanship. I would love to be able to work with metal and shape it every which way but then to do it at such a small scale is even more impressive. Can't wait to see it all finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantrix Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Is this going to end up being painted at any time? it would seem a shame to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
