Looking forward to the next project - A Mercedes G/a.s.s.e.r
A vintage style Gasser using a G280 body with 3d printed resin generic drag chassis and a 572 big block Chevy engine from Iceman Collections.
Wheels and tyres are from the AMT '53 Studebaker.
What do you all think?

I want to know the name of your local, because it's selling bloody strong beer!
Seriously though, haven't you punished yourself enough?
Just throw something together, with a fancy paint job first, for a rest, then tackle another awesome build? I don't want to see you burnt out, R kid?

Ah Bozzer where's the fun in that!!?
I think this should be a fairly easy build (famous last words)
And I have a stack of crazy builds in the pipeline.

Lol, increase the ventilation in your workspace. The glue fumes help, but too much can impair your judgement? I was actually over your way, ish, recently. Draycott in the Clay? I'm sure that I got a whiff of Tamiya Extra Thin? Lol

Near enough, its up by Burton on Trent. Not sure about Tamiya thin more like the scent of spray paint and melted plastic!

I was actually avoiding being overcome by the smell of methane at the time, but I could've swore I smelled glue? Anyway, before I forget, congratulations on the video, I enjoyed watching it. And I look forward to seeing the rest of your crazy thoughts. But you lot, are seriously getting me thinking about throwing a car together, just because I have a few! I might actually do a Bug?

Bozzer err....what video is that? Don't let us distract you from your current projects.
After 4 days in the freezer I have managed to dismantle the previously built parts and now have a complete chassis (ideal for another project in the pipeline).
The floor piece will need some work to allow the engine to fit and maybe a flip front end to show it off.

It was the unveiling of the snow ski kit? I must admit, it looks a pretty impressive kit! I'll have to keep my eyes open for one.

My mistake mate, it wasn't you. I've definitely been working too much! A day of paint and glue fumes, is long overdue! However, that looks like an amazing kit, in the video 👍

No problems, my brother had one of these back in the day. You may still find one out there.

Some early prep work on the 3D-printed 572 Chevy engine from Iceman Collections which looks superb!
Just a couple of minor edges to fill on the sump and fine cracks in the longer stacks to superglue.
I drilled out all the mounting points for better fitting parts and washed everything ready for paint.

I too have the Bozzer Syndrome - can't sit idle whilst parts dry/cure so a bit of Dremel action on the G Wagon floor to create the engine space.
The Iceman Collections gasser chassis fits nicely to the floor shape up front.
The rear looks like needing some extra support.

Can't fault you mate. Idle hands, and all that? Because of the glorious weather we've had, this last two weekends, I've started on my new cave. I've got some pictures, but they're nothing spectacular yet. I'll throw them together and maybe create an album? Currently, I have all 4 sides framed. Now I need to get the ply. I've secured 34 sheets of 8x4 1/2". They will form my walls, floor and roof. The exterior will be cladded and the interior painted. I just hope that this weather holds out for a few more weeks? My plan is to remove the old garden shed, assemble the new cave, then move the old cave stuff, into the new cave, in a weekend. Lol, I know, I'm nuts!

Waiting for paint to dry on my other two builds so turning my attention to the G Wagon.
So far it's been mods to the axle stubs to accept the option wheels from the Studebaker Raceliner.
After some drilling and sanding, all the wheels will now locate and attach to the chassis.
Pieces of Evergreen 4.8 mm tube have also been added to the rear stubs for extra strength and a more meaty look.
Brass 1 mm rod and 2 my tube have been used to make adapters for the rear wheels.
1 mm rod will be used for the fronts.

Managed to break the rear axle stubs on the chassis already (!) so drilled out a new 1 mm hole in the rear axle and adapted the rear wheels to fit accordingly with Evergreen tubing and 1mm brass rod.
Mods to the floor pan to accept the rear chassis completed.
Both front and rear Iceman chassis pieces attach via "slots" so you either add or in my case remove material for the perfect fit. Absolute genius.
First test fit looks god but I want the front end slightly higher.

Moving on with this build and making progress with the big block Chevy engine.
I need the complete engine made up to determine the placement within the chassis and body.
The prewired distributor came off EBay making the job so much easier.
Every Gasser should have a flip front so that's what I have done, removing the front end using a scriber on the existing body lines. This means of course more front detailing than I normally do - oh joy!
