RAT / ROD MODEL KIT BASH CHALLENGE

[Fv2]

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.

PVC glue might work, but I'd test it on cut off plastic first.

Have fun guys I'm out.
It's just not a friendly site anymore,
and I'm tired of going thru the motions.

@deven_science , I've been using cheap tubes of Super Glue I got at Home Depot. 4 tubes for like $1.99. A little bit goes a long way, very strong, and works on painted plastic.
BaSh oN~!

Hope that you sit back, take a break, relax, go on a few rides, and return brother!

Try the gorilla super glue. I use it on my 1/18 cars. The blue top one. Also try the yellow one it has a brush with it. Good luck

If that's an old acetate promo body, you can use a brush to apply acetone (lightly) to the seams, and it should melt/weld the panels together, similar to how styrene cement (I think it's MEK-based) works on... styrene.

It is one of those old promo kits.

I thought so. They have a certain sheen to them.

Yessir. It use to look like this. I have a shipment of 10 cars coming. About half will get "Jakedified". I can't wait for my model to come. I haven't done one in about 18 years. Whew.
