OK, here's my first entry for the New Year. This is the Beach Boys Little Deuce Coupe from Revellogram. Top is chopped 3", my first time doing a chop. Added plug wires, and radiator hoses made with solder and heat shrink tubing. Made glass pack mufflers and exhaust pipes from aluminum tubing. One of my all time favorite builds, so far! Will add some more pics when I get them.

Looking good so far everyone. Here's one I finished just too late for January. AMT '68 El Camino. Box stock except for wheels (Fujimi Fabulous), brakes (The Parts Box), carbie (The Parts Box) & steering wheel (Tamiya Monte Carlo Rally Mini). The plan was 70's colours with more modern wheels. Vinyl roof is masking tape & semi gloss acrylic.     |

Amt 34 ford 5 window, This kit is a piece of junk, the fenders are warped and there is flash everywhere and not just a little but excessive amounts. Anyways i made it work and here is the result. Horns and front bumper have been removed to reduce weight but i drilled holes for where the horns would have been. Its near stock apearing on the outside.  Under the hood though there is a souped up flatty for getting away from the law.  i opened up the roof insert to display the interior which features a bottle of booze and a necker knob for the steering wheel.  In the trunk there is a shipment being delivered. I still haven't found a licence plate decal that will fit the bracket yet.  rear  All the entrys this month so far are really sharp! |

Here's one I did last year. A 1/8th scale early "T" altered. The entire front axle except spring is scratch built as is the intake, exhaust, back half of the frame, roll cage, steering wheel, instrument cluster, shifter, throttle linkage, steering linkage and air cleaner elements. I also sanded the tread off the tires to make slicks. Sorry for the lousy pics but there the only ones I've got.      |

Nobody has posted here for a while, so I thought I would jump in with my Sebring convert. Built from the Lindberg kit, I added 300C wheels, Duplicolor paint, and BMF. I just couldn't bring myself to finish the trim in black with the light blue paint, so it's all chromed, consider it the Se-bling option.

Just finished! My 1967 Plymouth Belvedere II with a 426 CI Street Hemi. Paint is MCW Dark Green Metallic, ModelMaster Semi-Gloss Black for the interior. Wheels, rear tires, and shifter from my parts box. Hub caps from the Lindberg '64 Dodge 330. I turned the bucket seats into a bench seat. And I scratch built the gas cap.
