jeffb Posted July 11, 2012 Author Posted July 11, 2012 it helps to have the 1:1 sitting outside the shop
Yahshu Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 This is cool. What kit is this based on? Are you going to get copies made ?
MAGNUM4342 Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 I like this! Could I trouble you to post a shot or two of the 1:1?
Casey Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 I'm likin' that roof piece. At least you won't have to handle it quite as gently now, huh?
jeffb Posted July 11, 2012 Author Posted July 11, 2012 I'm likin' that roof piece. At least you won't have to handle it quite as gently now, huh? cut that on the cnc engraver..its fun to use a $30k tool to build models !
charlie8575 Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 You know you have one sold already, Jeff. I'll enjoy watching this long-awaited kit come together. Charlie Larkin

Bartster Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Sign me up for one as well! l'll watch this thru to the end.
jeffb Posted July 11, 2012 Author Posted July 11, 2012 heres the parts for the slanty. i robbed parts from 4 kits, then did a bunch of mods. after the stock engine is cast, i'll do the clifford parts.

charlie8575 Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Hmmm....a Hyper-Pak Valiant wagon? Now that's something I could definitely see myself driving very happily. Charlie Larkin
jbwelda Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 where did the original valiant body come from? an old johan kit maybe? should be sweet; i really love rodded station wagons.

jeffb Posted July 13, 2012 Author Posted July 13, 2012 its an old amt craftsman kit. eventually, i'll cast 63-66 valiant wags. i aready have the coupes, just gotta cut em up. thanks bryan, but i'll need to cast my own 6 for the kits.
Harold Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 I could see it with a Barracuda grille and interior with a 273 (and only two doors).
