RAT / ROD MODEL KIT BASH CHALLENGE

[gowjobs]

Jack Wag'n
Pearl on the Vega body took a bad turn, so will need to let it sit a few days before I try to fix it. In the meantime, I made progress on Jack, himself.

Dang! That Jack is one creepy dude. And so life-like~!

Look what I found stashed on a shelf in a room no one uses at the house I grew up in. (that I'm currently remodeling) a model I built as a teen.

I do like that old Chevy...
I might have found my drivetrain...

I repainted the Vega body, applied some decals, and worked on the base a bit.

RRKB UPDATE! So, we are almost 2 weeks in on the Rat / Rod Kit Bash Challenge. So far we have 7 active builds/builders and 9 pages of coolness on the thread! There is room for more in the pool, so jump on in if you have had fun watching the progress here. More the merrier!

Didja notice the ink pen spring suspension? Front and back.

If I remember right, that body also sat at the bottom of a fish tank for a while. Looked pretty cool with the fishes swimming thru it. What I don't remember is ever putting it back on the frame!

Early attempts at patina?

Jack Wagon

I couldn't shoot lacquer over the pearl I had messed up, so I am stuck waiting for the enamel purple to cure up before I can safely spray clear. I reassembled Jack temporarily to store him for a week or so...

'32 Ford Dra-Hag-ster
The Weird Ohs Drag Hag box advertises her as a 'blastin' momma'. Well, Momma's got a brand new drag....draggin behind her, that is.

It's the front end of her original dragster from the kit. I've got some different ideas about it's 'cargo'.

'32 Ford Dra-Hag-ster aka Motorhead Momma
She's got racing on her mind.....

Artfully done.

But weird

She is an original 'Weird-oH' ; so I'm going to take that as a high compliment.

Mini-Studebaker Quad

Chopped up the Studebaker model to match how I cut up the full-scale version. Not sure how I'll be attaching the pieces together? Maybe JB Weld.
