You forgot to mention what you were going to do with it. There is at least a hundred different options. Although I don't think this kit offers much in terms of factory stock. I'm guessing a hot rod or rat rod?

 

[`Boots`]

Cheers fellas...........as for what am i going to do with it............i`ll just make it up as i go along, don`t really have a plan as such!!!, same as i did with the 29, i suppose something along the lines of me avatar!!!

Okay, a custom rod. Whitewalls would be nice. You can do anything with these old coupes. Should be fun.

Iv`e just chopped the front rad crossmember out and moved it forwards and dropped the front end by a couple of mm`s, the kit engine didn`t come with a fan so `i`ve added a nice 5 blade one............hence the moving of the rad.........t`was a bit tight!!

[Chris S]

Chris.

 

[`Boots`]

Hmmmm, a chopped and chanelled school bus `eh.............with big Carlos Fandango wheels on it!!, so thats a chopped Peterbuilt and a school bus..........awesome..LOL!!


`Boots`

Hee Hee, thanks Ken...............was soooo tempted to put the M2A1 in the `everything else` catergory, but due to my working hours i couldn`t garauntee getting two models finished..............!!!! :

`Boots`

 

[scratchmod]

Nice to see this getting bench time Boots. The M2 HT would be a good choice for that cat buddy...or the Sherman. ;D ;D

 

[`Boots`]

Thanks Rob, i`ll see how the time goes...............might not be able to get the HT done in time but i could possibly fit the Shermie in for the closin` stages buddy.............. :-\
