curt raitz Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) When I saw Jimmy Flintstones resin Hudson...I found the perfect tow vehicle for the Midget Racer. Was very pleased with the quality of his model, it went on the Moebius chassis easily and the glass fit just fine with minimal clean up on the body. Paint is Scalefinishes "Hudson Honey Cream" The Offenhauser-Midget is a fantastic model, builds up fairley easily...just went with the decals in the kit. Paint is Scalefinishes "McLaren Orange" Dirtied both of'em up to make it seem real enjoy... thanx for lookin'... Edited August 10, 2013 by curt raitz 1
Chillyb1 Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 I want bigger pictures! This is too cool but I can barely see the cars.
charlie8575 Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 I was always a little disappointed that Hudson didn't build a pickup on the Step-Down chassis. The proposals I saw were very nice-looking. Same with the wagons- looked similar to a Packard, but a little better-proportioned. Great execution, Curt. Charlie Larkin
realgone58 Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 They look great together! Nice modest weathering too!
Dominik Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) Coooooool idea with the JF-body! My one is still waiting to let my hands on it. You give me a good insperation with the trailer! Can you make some more pictures from the Hudson? How did you make the bed? is it modified with the interiuer parts of the kit? Looks really good! Edited June 17, 2013 by Dominik
Dr. Cranky Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 A beauty of a combo. Lots of the right nostalgia and charm.

curt raitz Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 Coooooool idea with the JF-body! My one is still waiting to let my hands on it. You give me a good insperation with the trailer! Can you make some more pictures from the Hudson? How did you make the bed? is it modified with the interiuer parts of the kit? Looks really good! The Jimmy Flintstone resin body comes with the bed molded in place...did nothing but paint it. You will have to modify the interior, I used the front seat and custom made a rear shelf that drops in behind the seat. had a friend make a resin copy of it for those who may want to build this conversion just PM me if interested in getting a copy
