WIDE F-100

Hey all, FINALLY!! reno is done and i can get back into the model room, it's been almost 7 weeks since i touched plastic.
Pulled an old model off the shelf and will start back into it with a bit of custom work on a rebuild.
Roof has been rechopped and fixed up a bit, bonnet and front guards moulded as one, and a modified porsche front airdam smoothed out to fit a bit better.
Doors have been widened with a portion of a bonnet grafted on to them so they flow with the front guards. Rear guards have had about 10mm added into
their width, body will be channeled over chassis, motor will be BIG!, and not sure on wheels or colour yet.





It's nice to be back into it.

Tonnes of bog and tonnes of sanding............get 'er done son!
Can't wait to see what you come up with............

That's gonna be one fat F'y. Good to see ya back into it.
Will be keeping an eye on this

Different.
Like it.

yep its diffrent,will be watching.

WOW!!! DeeCee, put that thing on a diet would ya! Heck, she's fat az fck! Should look awesome finished.

You got my attention...

OK, still struggling to find momentum, but got a bit of paint done today, and selected the wheels. They are from the WAGON-ROD.
Paint is spray chief candy green over white and grey base. You have to be careful what jar you store your paint in, i used a jar which had been washed numerous times, but my paint smells like the garlic the jar used to hold, it is so strong i can not even smell the thinners. Now the days are drawing out, should get the clear done through the week after work i hope, and get a bit more of the chassis mods done through the week i hope.

This is gunna look wicked Dale but why does my minds eye think ...split windscreen ???

As for the garlic smell .... maybe some Italian Restaurant decals to make it as a Shop truck ?

thanks Dean, split windscreen would make life easier when i have to cut the bugger down, might think a bit longer on that one, unfortunately no wog shop decals in the stash mate.

That looks great in that colour DeeCee. Wheels finish it off nicely!!

Wow, sweet colour mate, hard to tell from the pics but is there a flake in it?

Thanks guys, yes Zac, there is a bit of accidental metal flake in it, still not sure how it got there though any way , it should pop in the daylight after clear.

Lovely colour.

OK, got a bit more of this thing done through the week, interior, right hand drive conversion, seats are from early(53?) corvette, and a blown nitro style engine
is almost done, polished it aswell.






hopefully finished tomorrow.

Sure that interior's green enough for ya?
Na serious it looks great Dale, loving that grill too

Nice work on the dash. That's given me a solution to a problem that's been bugging me.
Thanks

Love it Dale. I remember the purple one. Perhaps the same body?-Mark

Yes Mark, the same body, rechopped and rehashed in many ways, purple one just didn't cut it mate, needed upgrading.
