Terror Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 Could never get a shine on this one.after stripping the paint twice,I went with this look.
HOLMES55 Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 I like the way it turned out, what kit did the body come from ? Was the top chopped or did you modify it?
Terror Posted February 15, 2012 Author Posted February 15, 2012 It's the Revell '32 kit.I chopped it,then glued thread on the lines and foiled the thread to simulate welds.My first try with that,came out ok I guess?Thanks for the comments.
AMT Pacemakers Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 Yep, I like that. those welds look cool, {maybe it was welded with a stick welder!!} CCSS
weasel Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) Yep, I like that. those welds look cool, {maybe it was welded with a stick welder!!} CCSS nah, probably used some old coathangers and gas to weld it!! lol forgot...nice build!! i like how sometimes the 'mistakes' come out better than expected...lol Edited February 16, 2012 by weasel
carchub Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 Love it! I'm building one of these myself. What method did you use for wiring the engine?
Dr. Cranky Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 Terry, I like it. Those side doors looks nicely weathered. Everything about this model screams mild rat rod. Nice work, buddy. Cheers.
Terror Posted February 16, 2012 Author Posted February 16, 2012 Thanks guys.Roland there is no real method.Just drill holes and put wire in the holes.I used a piece of sprue for the distributor.Doc that means alot coming from the God of Rust.Thank you.The engine still needs some slight weathering,and I'll button this thing up.
Terror Posted February 17, 2012 Author Posted February 17, 2012 Thanks again.Heres a pic with the headlights mounted.
