VooDooCC Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 I'm taking a guess here, but it looks a lot like the cat from the revell kenworth w900 and revell pete 259, not sure if it's in others as well.

Correct! I think this one is from the Pete, but both kits have pretty much the same engine.
4bangen Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 I like what I see so far, but might I suggest aether larger rear tires or duel rear wheels? <------- hot rod junky, even my daily driver...

Not this time- I've already done the dual rear wheel thing, and I don't have any taller rear tires that don't look ridiculous on it. I do have another one in the works that'll have big and littles and dual wheels on the rear. And for this, duals would kill maneuverability, something you'd need dodging hoardes of post-apocalyptic marauders!
Chuck Most Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 Gunked it up a bit and tacked on a bed.
Terror Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Looking good,.Is that diamond plate on the windsheild too?Can't tell the pics are dark.I like the rims and tires.Needs a big diesel exhaust and she is almost done?Also,at least one weapon just in case.Cool man cool..
Chuck Most Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 Yep, diamond plate in the passenger's side winsheild opening, and diamond plate used as 'armor' on the doors. It'll probably be lightly armed, as well (remember- roving bands of post-apocalyptic marauders... )
Danny Lectro Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 Looking real good, Chuck. I love post-apocalypse rides.
RodneyBad Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 Dang!! That does look Cool. Ya really know how to work fast..
jeffs396 Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 Neat build Chuck! Now I see what you needed the MPC Dodge 8-lugs for
Chuck Most Posted November 9, 2011 Author Posted November 9, 2011 Nah, this is but one of many projects to use them. Funny thing is- I wasn't going to use them on this, but ended up using them because they're a perfect fit in the Desert Dog tires. All the 8-bolt wheels I have are now allocated, though.
Tom Setzer Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 Now that is down right mean looking! CHEERS! Tom
Chuck Most Posted November 11, 2011 Author Posted November 11, 2011 Dug out an old gun I made for another project years ago, and rigged up the rear-mounted radiator and plumbing.
RodneyBad Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Coming along nicely. Engine is looking good, interesting front suspension. Cool Gun
Dr. Cranky Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Very cool, Chuck. It's always a blast to watch you come up with your magnificent, amazing machines! Now, I'm beginning to wonder what you are going to do to that 1:1 you just got!
Chuck Most Posted November 11, 2011 Author Posted November 11, 2011 Should be in 'Under Glass' tomorrow- just a matter of adding the front air springs, fuel, and air tanks.
Dr. Cranky Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Cool, get it done! Another one on the shelves!
