My beverly hillbillis makeover. If I could have a 1:1 car, this would be it.

Everything was made using parts from the beverly hillbillies kit. (except the Headers...they are from the boss nova kit). Scratch built the floor.

Oh yah, and the piston shift nob. I saw that on the site banner and knew I would be using mine for the same idea!

Best part about this kit are the moonshine bottles... not pictured...yet

Next step is a small diorama. outside the barn it came from.

Flathead,
you have a unique build with this one. i DO like this. when i see a barn-find, i'm thinkin man that'll be cool after it's restored. i don't want to offend anyone, i just feel that any vehicle deserves enough respect and dignity to be restored to it's former glory.

41chevy: Yeah I'm leaning towards the Torino as a Winfield /Starbird style idea car like the Ford Custom Caravan would have commissioned. Jan 23, 2024 13:53:42 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: fyi I did Pay for ad free here, I might have to renew that Jan 23, 2024 23:51:04 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: I hope you are all having a nice Memorial Day weekend! May 26, 2024 8:26:51 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: have a good weekend everyone! Oct 25, 2024 17:25:38 GMT -5

krassandbernie: I've posted some really cool stuff here on this board recently with little response......this place is on life support! Nov 4, 2024 20:17:16 GMT -5

Mr409: Posting has been a bit slow here lately. It's a shame, in my opinion this is the best modeling site around. I, myself, have one barely un-TRaKable project going on at the moment, once that's done I'll get back to work on some of my TRaKable projects... Nov 6, 2024 12:54:58 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: with facebook and instagram, it amazed me how many people stopped paying for storage and so many great memories are lost. i will not do that. Nov 17, 2024 13:31:07 GMT -5

Mr409: My Fotki is since 14 years. It indeed is a bummer how many pics are gone from old threads. I will also try to keep mine up there, but I also don't have any desire to go to FB or Instagram either.

Nov 17, 2024 17:50:56 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: facebook has it's ups, but i really like to share here when i am building. it matters to me what is said here more than anywhere else. Nov 17, 2024 22:07:19 GMT -5

RodBurNeR: just want to wish everyone a happy safe holiday season! it's among us Nov 22, 2024 22:57:44 GMT -5
