Uncertain T Show Rod

Hey Dudes

Here she is man, my pride & joy at the moment A BIG thanks to Bruce (silverfox) for giving me the chance to re-build this. (I luv U man) lol I think it came out great man from what I started with. A lot of love & care went into rebuilding this little gem man. Hope all you Klowns like it. Big thx man to a great buddy of mine for the back wheels with out his help it wouldn't look half as good. Thanks brother ;D ;D ;D

This is what I started with





And this is the end result man

Dam!! That is kool!! love the seats, love the colour, great result!!

Wicked bucket man

Man that is too cool! A terrific rebuild and the end result is superb - well done dude. This is one of the most requested show cars to be rekitted but Revell/Monogram can't get permission from the current owner, who wants an outrageous dollar figure to re-do it.

Some more info about the real car and model kit here: http://www.honestcharliesplace.com/theuncertaint.htm

Great job love the colour combo

Mate it has been worth the effort - a great addition to any collection. Love to see it next month.
Can you imagine what the 1:1 must have been like to drive - the wheelbase can't be much more than the track & it had a solid rear end by the look of it. My kind of rod !

In the early 70's I seen a one like this at a Hot Rod car show in Sydney it was black & metallic green & called Tilt T,I still remember the way the it looked after all these years,it was the first Hot Rod show that I been to.Don't know if it was this one or not.

Awesome build, well done! I really gotta build one of these myself soon!

Your memory is correct Allan. The "Tilted-T" was built by Phil Buchanan back in the late 1960's or very early 1970, and was featured in an Aussie magazine (maybe it was "Street Machine"?). This is a photo of it on a transport truck, taken at the 1971 Adelaide Hot Rod Show (at back of truck). It was similar to the "Uncertain-T".

Looks terrific Tyrone - you've still got the skills big fella.

That is a great restoration of the old kit.

Geez man , thats come up a real treat . It feels good dunit when ya bring back a model from model junkyard .

Great restoration.
