bpletcher55 Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 this is an uncertain T i built from scratch no parts from the kit were used .
TooOld Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 That's pretty amazing ! Can we see some more photos ?
cobraman Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Very nice build. I wouldn't mind seeing more photos myself.
RatRod Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Very Impressive!!! You should share this with Steve Scott, the builder of the real 1:1. https://www.facebook.com/SteveScottsUncertainT
hotrod4ever Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Very nice! Do you have the dimensions and angles of the body? Or, did you just wing it? I'd like to try to make one! I'd love to see more pics!! Maybe a tutuorial? Cheers!
moparfarmer Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Pretty sure thats the one that was built by Chuck Darnell from Quincy Illinois. He is a very good modeler and has donesome very clean stuff. I think this is 1/8 scale from the KKIM show a week or two ago...

bpletcher55 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 I , built this model with help of NORM VEBER OF R/M OF MARYLAND ,he load me his unbuilt uncertain kit so I could use it toget the body correct.the body I built is one piece.the hardest part of the build was the seats there is nothing out there that is close to the seats that are in the real car. I made them my self ,I would give you a parts brake down of all the parts used and were they came from but I made alot from scratch or dont remember were they came from .

I know Chuck too and this is not his 1/8 build . Photos of his at KKIM are on the LARGE SCALE MODELS forum . Once again , a very nice build Blair . It obviously is good enough to fool some people !
Chitown Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Oh yeah, love that car! Great work, more pics would be nice.
Draggon Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Yes very nice job, especially all of the scratchbuilding you did. I really love it! I agree with John, you should share it with Steve Scott. As an aside, Steve is selling Uncertain-T tee shirts. Might be pretty cool to bring that to a show wearing one of his shirts.
bpletcher55 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 GLENN ,I do not have a fasebook account and I do not want one. If some one wants to send him a message with a pic, of my car I did that,s cool with me .I would love to have a T-shirt with his car on it .THAT IS MY FAVERET CAR IN THE WORLD !.
bobthehobbyguy Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 this is an uncertain T i built from scratch no parts from the kit were used . Nice job. I have always liked this car. Have the car craft magazine with an article on this car. How did you do the body? If Monogram Revell would reissue this they would have a winner. If the molds don't exist then they need to reverse engineer it like Polar Lights did with the old Aurora monster kits Would love to build one but not for the crazy prices for the the original kit. bobthehobbyguy
Draggon Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Blair, if I have your permission, I'll try to forward your pic to Steve. I will, if appropriate, send you a link to his new line of shirts. Let me know! This is the shirt I bought, $31 shipped.
Mooneyzs Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 This is a totall cool and great build. nice job on this one.
bpletcher55 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Posted March 12, 2013 GLENN ,YOU HAVE MY PERMISSION TO SEND HIM A PIC ,I WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO HIM ONE DAY ABOUT THE CAR .I ,M NOT SURE HOW I WOULD GET ONE OF THOSE COOL T-SHIRTS.
