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.

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

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!!

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.

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.
