This kit was a sure bet to get hot rodder's attention! I have so far, seen nothing but real nice ones built up on Traditional Rod and Kustom in scale forum.

the O.G. '29 RPU/CC Pickup by Revell

I am working on this right now, everything else is aside until I feel like messing with them again. (what else is new?)(as if I need another project)
This is the OriGinal kit Revell did with the opening doors and posable steering etc...They brought it back out not that long ago as a "Rat Rod" kit. BLEH! Looks like some Hot Rods on the cover to me! Anyways, I am going to build it just like the box cover shows it...why not right? It's molded in red, so it's gonna be easy to match :-p I will just polish the plastic to a high shine.

My favorite Revell '57 Black Widow 150's so far

This kit took off as being one of the most popular purchases this year. So far the builds I have seen , people are enjoying them a lot. I might pick one up sometime.

BIG DEUCE

If Revell had presented the latest issue like THIS, I would have wanted one badly! Now I have to hope I get lucky one day to buy the original just to build it RIGHT! from instructions submitted by Don Horneff.
Looks like I will wish in one hand and .... to get these too! 1/8 scale takes a lot of shelf space, but when they look this cool, I don't care! Long live old school!

Don't ya wish?

What if the companies still put this kind of effort into marketing? It would be oh so neat to go to the local hobby shop and buy parts packs with tires you want or engines and even motorcyles or chassis' like they used to do.

Watson style '59 Skyliner

I am just about speechless. I can't say how cool I think this model is! Renaud "ZED" Legardez painted this car twice and the 2nd time around could not be better! He started with one of the Revell "multi peice" body kits. To begin with, these kits were crude but he made them look beautiful!

When blah becomes BLAH.....

And all the sudden out of nowhere comes something that is no longer BLAH! Renaud (ZED) Legardez , member of Traditional Rod and Kustom in scale and a Gold Member of the Drastic Plastics Model Car Club is working on this sweet Watson style '59 Skyliner. I about jumped out of my skin when I saw photos of this posted on TRaK! In fact, this paint job/project has me motivated to try the same on a '60 Buick I am building.
This is not the first time I have seen this done on a model car/ 1/25 scale....but the pattern and colors REALLY did it for me!
