Joker Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 (edited) Got this side project from a fellow RAMS (Richmond Automotive Modelers Society) member. It was an extra in a kit..I got C.R.S. syndrome and can't remember what kit it was from. It's for a GMC shop truck I'm working on. Made a sissy bar with reflector ,soda can fenders , lowered the seat ,swing kickstand , brake cable lines , front head light , stainless steel washer for rear gear and covered in Testors Acrylic paint. Wished I had taken some before pictures ...sorry about that. Thanks Rik Edited November 22, 2011 by Joker
Sixties Sam Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Now that's cool! Nice detail on such a tiny model. The color is great! Sam
Scale-Master Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Wow! That is crisp and clean. Especially for how tiny it is. The more I look at it, the better it looks.
krazyglu Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Now that is so freaking cool......I have seen a few of these recently and searched for one with no luck at all. You really made this thing look awesome with all the extra details. Thanks for sharing
Dragline Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Isn't that the mini bike from the Vandal kit? Superbly clean. Bob
Joker Posted November 22, 2011 Author Posted November 22, 2011 (edited) Isn't that the mini bike from the Vandal kit? Bob Thanks..no its not the Vandal mini bike. The Vandal had a Taco mini bike. Edited November 22, 2011 by Joker
mazlak Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 James, I'm glad you had fun with it. It had been sitting in my someday pile for a long time. You really did a great job on it. Definitely bring it to our next meeting. If i remember correctly, it came out of the Monogram Baja Beast kit. The other kit I gave you came from the AMT Blazer Monster Truck or maybe The Dodge, same minibike in both kits. It looks SUPER!! Rick in Richmond
martinfan5 Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 That is cool, that would good in the back of pickup
mazlak Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 James, Have you done anything yet with the other bikes? or the Dragula? I will have to miss this upcoming club meeting due to work. Rick in Richmond
Joker Posted November 25, 2011 Author Posted November 25, 2011 James, Have you done anything yet with the other bikes? or the Dragula? Rick in Richmond Finishing up Drag-U-La decals tonite..painted the raised FIRESTONE lettering on both sides of the tall pie crust slicks. Thanks Rick The other mini bike is more like a trail bike..1970 Honda CT50 and it is a side kit in the Ertl Ford 4x4 'The Destroyer".. That one is going to the "Knife #11 Kustom Shop"..this weekend... The Purple Mini is based on a 1968 Honda Z50 ..side kit in the Baja Beast..Google search is Awesome.
