W-409 Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 Flathead looks much better than the four banger! So keep it. Great work so far with this build, and great to see RatRods which are built nicely and they are realistic.
Foxer Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 4 banger. ..... Over sized blown engines are SO 00's .. And, what did you use to make the door hinges?
John Teresi Posted October 10, 2011 Author Posted October 10, 2011 4 banger. ..... Over sized blown engines are SO 00's .. And, what did you use to make the door hinges? Mike..... I used the door hinges from the Revell 31 donor kit ......I used them on the Revell 32 kit body.......thank`s
Dr. Cranky Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 John, I hope you are taking your vitamins. I can't wait to see more.
Sixx Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 Derrick.....you can get the skull`s from "Scaledetail" over at Coffin Corner........I reshaped the legs and body......thanks Coffin Corner?? What is that??
John Teresi Posted October 11, 2011 Author Posted October 11, 2011 Hello......not much done today.......I just made a "Bandito" belt with bullet`s......and did some more work on the frame and interior pan......I think it`s right now?......."Pancho" is sitting better without his head sticking out the roof.......thank`s for looking.

Mooneyzs Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 John... This build is coming along great. Love what you are doing with it and adding the Pancho Skeleton... is just Awesome. I have to give my opinion on the engine. I would go with the flat head myself so another vote for the blown flat head. Man that belt with bullets is just awesome. nice work.
kobuzz Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Always like to watch your progress. Amazing what you can do in such a short time.
Dr. Cranky Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Just when you think you've seen it all. WOW. It's these kinds of details that keep EYEGORE running over to the fire hydrant. Not only is he salivatin', but he is LOVING every step of this build. This is genius and totally inspiring, John.
Tom Setzer Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Great Cartridge Belt! Coming up with ideas like this makes for interesting builds! CHEERS! Tom
Bastardo Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 This is some serious jaw-dropping stuff... Love that idea with the bullets...
crazyjim Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Already an out of sight build, the bullets take it way over the top,.
Dr. Cranky Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 I know our daily eye candy allowance is coming up. I can't wait.
Pro Tech Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 (edited) John, this is a very cool build, never know what you will come up with next that's for sure. The belt/bullets are a neat idea not to mention it will keep those at bay that want to get too close a L :o K, watch those eyeballs! hahaha................

Lanny Haas Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Pancho look real comfy in there.hes "digging the scene with the ganster lean"
Dr. Cranky Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Jairus Watson showed me this technique of dressing up the skeleton in tattered pieces of clothing by using tissue, etc . . . here's a pic of the result. I am sure your Pancho Villa is going to look marvelous. You work slow and the results are excellent. So it went that to this: This is from a build called The Devil's Cadillac:

John Teresi Posted October 11, 2011 Author Posted October 11, 2011 Hello.....thank you for all the kind comment`s.......I would like to say that I can not take all the credit for this build.....this build is my version of a replica of a 1931 Chevy that is on the cover of one of my fathers publications "Rebel Rodz" Dec.2011........I hope that I do the 1:1 justice.......thank`s
