Walt's Puffer Too T-Bucket Altered

[gasser59]

Thanks guys but it still has a ways to go before its done.

[gasser59]

Now that the body's done, I have a bit of fine tuning adjustments on the steering arm and drag link. Its under a bit of tension and not straight. Hopefully this fix is minor.

Smart looking Brad. Well executed.  I was looking over the weekend at past notes I printed from 2011 and came across some of your earlier builds and techniques that I'm going to attempt to replicate on my next build.  It was good stuff then and I'm sure it's still so today.  Cheers

[gasser59]

Thanks so much Codi. Have you put the printing plate to good use yet?

[gasser59]

A bit more accomplished but i had anticipated more. Got the aluminum firewall in held in place with Scale Hardware rivets.

I was able to get the parachute finished.

And the inside of the body was painted flat black. Makes a huge difference.

Man I need to dust.

Brad... this thing is looking killer.... nice job brother. Those little details are really standing out.  Totally digging this build.

[Danno]

Niiiiice!

Looking good Brad.

Man, I hear that about the dust.  When this fine car gets under glass though, no more dust.

Thanks guys. I was planning on finishing this build this weekend but it was not to be. It'll get done this week by hook or by crook.

Awesome detail work!

[gasser59]

Thanks Bruce. Just a few more small details on my to-do list. Here's a couple shots from outside this morning.

Almost there. Thanks for your interest and following along.

[Codi]

Brad, those outdoor shots really show the car off nicely.  Don't know about the dried mud (? ) its sitting in but the paint and detail really pop on it.  Nice job sir.  Cheers, Tim

[gasser59]

Dried mud??  LOL   That's my stucco front patio wall.  Thanks for the comment Codi. Much appreciated. Last thing to do is to add the small center caps on the front rims.

Looks Great Brad!   Cant wait to see it in person at the DSC in April.

[gasser59]

Thx Dave. I'll be glad to have this one done tomorrow.

[John Teresi]

Brad......bet it feels good to have this one finished......turned out great Big Brother......you must be proud of this one ......I love it!!!!....love the outside pics too!!!!

[gasser59]

It will feel good when its done. I just need about an hour or so and those front rim center caps will be done. Thx for the kudos brother. Mucho appreciated.

[Mooneyzs]

Brad.... this is one outstanding build here. It has turned out gorgeous . I can not wait to see this in person. Those center caps  be the icing on the cake. Bet it feels good to be 98/99% done with this one.

[gasser59]

Thanks brother. Yes it will but then I gotta figure out what's next. Do I finish off something I've already started or move on to something new. I have a few ideas and one is looming larger than others. You'll like it.

[gasser59]

The Walt's Puffer Too is complete so it made its debut at the local ModelCon show yesterday. 

I'll take some outside pictures later on today.

[John Teresi]

Brad......looks great displayed on the table.....great job Big Brother

 

[gasser59]

Thanks Johnny. More pics later.

[Randy D]

Hey Brad,      I keep coming back to this one and soaking more up,   a really cool subject coupled with a flawless build and paint makes for an outstanding model!

 Look forward to be able to see this one in person.

  Congrats buddy!!!!

That is one beautiful piece of art Brad. I'm so glad you went with a dull cap on the front spokies. Looks perfect.

[gasser59]

Thanks brother. Here's an outside shot. Looks great in the sunlight, if I do say so myself.
