Kennyboy Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Darn it Mike, now I'm hungry!............ Good luck and good building to all!
Jordan White Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I think i'm going to change up the kit I'm building. Instead of the C1500, I'm going to be building the Aoshima Nissan Terrano (Pathfinder) into a 3-door soft-top concept that would have been built to compete with the Isuzu Amigo and Jeep Wrangler.
Gothic Kustomz Posted October 3, 2013 Author Posted October 3, 2013 ok gang we all decided on what we're gonna do? I figured more would enter, but hey thats kewl, know where the forum jockys stand, over there--------------------------------->....................
DrKerry Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) Yeah I'm building the Panic Tang. I made some more process on it. Pics to come soon. I'll be cranking on it Saturday down at the "Build and Bull" after our Kustom Kemps in Miniature meet. Edited October 3, 2013 by DrKerry
DrKerry Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 In the photos of my car I've been using a snap kit Viper chassis for mock up purposes. As of today that chassis is going to the way side. Viper GTS glue chassis has been acquired and will be going in as final build goes on. Viper chassis will also give better detail as well as the crank driven blower coming off that Viper V-10.

There was a kewl Chevy engine, called POVT, it had the blower running in front of the engine, off the crank, way kewl engine, for the rodderz.

Gothic Kustomz Posted October 3, 2013 Author Posted October 3, 2013 Hey guys my VW Beetle body showed up yesterday! Time to get the plastic flying!!! ohhhhh yeah.
DrKerry Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 I'm realizing that with the body mods I'm doing this is starting to look like and old Lotus......... Hope to have photos up after the mad thrash tomorrow at Kemps!!!!!
Gothic Kustomz Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 Kewl, I woulda left the back half of the car on, lol
DrKerry Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 I liked yhe way it looked, but really looking at it once it's painted, that's a lot of....just....body back there. I wanted to break up the expanse of the tail with some lines, so I changed the look a bit. You might like the new look!!???!!
Gothic Kustomz Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 kewl, thats what flaired fenders, and spoilers are for, lol, just having some fun with ya
DrKerry Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 I'm liking the way it's turning out so far. Thought about putting side pipes on it but not sure I want t ogo that way with it...
Gothic Kustomz Posted October 5, 2013 Author Posted October 5, 2013 Ya kno the golden rule, if it aint in pics, it never happend, LOL.
DrKerry Posted October 6, 2013 Posted October 6, 2013 Well after today, the side pipes may not be a go. I'll hopefully take some pics tomorrow but I got a lot done on it as well as my clubs project semi.......
DrKerry Posted October 6, 2013 Posted October 6, 2013 Oh yeah I decided the 5 spoke wheels aren't going on. I found a set of Pantera wheels that I had. Hogged out the back of them to open the spokes up. I'm also going to close in the front wheel opening as it's a bit wide. I also found out that the body on this was actually the 74 GTX (Shirley Mouldowney) funny car body. I talked to a friend of mine that started the red part of this car.
Jantrix Posted October 6, 2013 Posted October 6, 2013 I'd like to join in with a stalled project '49 Ford. Pre-chop Post Rolled pans front and rear
kratvmnd Posted October 6, 2013 Posted October 6, 2013 Hey guys,just checking in,you haven't lost me. I was hoping to have my kit before the weekend. It's scheduled for delivery tomorrow,so I'll be joining in soon.Good work so far! Also, I was just thinking that it's pretty cool that the builds are all unrelated-totally different makes and models built in unrelated styles-should make for some interesting work!
Gothic Kustomz Posted October 6, 2013 Author Posted October 6, 2013 Hey kewl beanz, Jantrix jumped in, looks like yer off to a good start there Jantrix, and thank ya for joining, now lets see some plastic flying bud.

Also, I was just thinking that it's pretty cool that the builds are all unrelated-totally different makes and models built in unrelated styles-should make for some interesting work! Tha'ts what it's all about man, and it's looking good, that's why I kinda went with anything is allowed, I wanted to see different styles of kustom work, different styles of carz, I left wide open, I'm tired, of the old, "fords only" "these years" " Chevy this" course I did kinda leave it only kustomz, but, in the trade off, it's wide open, was hoping some would bring rods, wagons, maybe later someone will join thats doing those kinda carz, wanna thank every one who has entered.
Jordan White Posted October 6, 2013 Posted October 6, 2013 Yeah I should be starting soon too, mine is coming from Japan.
DrKerry Posted October 6, 2013 Posted October 6, 2013 Ok guys, here it is. I going to change out the front wheel well opening for a smaller one. 74 GTX (Mouldowney funny car), 70 Cuda nose, 74 Cuda funny car tail-front fenders-top of fenders, Viper chassis and interior tub and driveline, 59 Impala dash board. Pantera wheels. The car will be a lot lower than this. This is just to show the wheels. It'll be almost on the ground when done...
Kennyboy Posted October 6, 2013 Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) Man that is looking goooood Kerry! Love the Pantera wheels on it. Welcome aboard Rob!! Started my build yesterday. VERY rough at the moment. Edited October 7, 2013 by Kennyboy
