Still looks good, the body will be yellow?

I used this kit a while back to build the car from Aloha Bobby and Rose. Good little kit.

I think the chosen colors are pretty for the Corvette 🙂

Chris Reimann
Great job on a quite basic kit!

Kenneth Gifford
It was a total of 8 hours. So 16 total man hours between the two of us. I'm very happy with it, he's moved on to Houston and I proudly display it on my case.

Following. I have been contemplating a kit bash to make a GMC pick up.

That grille is a good find, but it appears to be from the 1:24 Monogram / Revell Ramcharger, so it may be too big for the 1:25 AMT or MPC pickup. 8(

I ran into more trouble with the Chevy / GMC thing. The truck I'm trying to copy in a model is 4WD, and the Chevy pickup model's 2WD front axle support area is pretty dense so although I could scavenge the whole drivetrain from the Jimmy, I'd pretty much be forced to also scavenge its frame, too, after lengthening it for the longbed pickup... and the undersides of the cab and bed may then not work out unless I emulate any detail in the Jimmy's floor on the Chevy's floor. I may still get it done, but it's far from trivial.

My Jeep project is looking much simpler: I own a IRL '74 Jeep CJ5 Renegade with the 304; it's equipped with a snowplow. I bought the 1:25 Golden Hawk CJ5, but it ships with the 4-cylinder engine so I dug up a V8 from the 1:25 Honcho pickup to tuck under the hood, then I'm adding the snowplow from a 1:24 GMC pickup. It won't be exactly right but it'll be so close that nobody but me will be the wiser.

Does Scalemates have a Facebook presence? I hate to keep stealing Ken's thread here to talk about my projects. 😎
