Preliminary mok up of the Model A roadster.

Number 3 in the stash bash! This one started out as just the green Model A roadster body. Dug out a tubular roadster frame, a chrome tree from the rat rod pickup, and various goodies from the parts boxes. Engine is from the latest rendition of the Revell 32 roadster.

Thanks for all the nice comments- it was a fun build and definitely a possible contestant in the T.R.O.G. races!

Very elegant build- good luck with final assembly!

V16 displacing 1550 cu. in. Dual overhead cams. Twin centrifugal superchargers. Open exhausts- loud!

Second build of the stash bash starting with a Model A roadster body! Added Duesenberg frame rails, Breen Hornet front suspension with modifications, Miller grille, two Bugatti Royale blocks formed into V-16 with dual overhead cams, cord wrapped steering wheel, power steering unit added to sprint car steering, Winters quick change, large disc brakes, and big rig wheels and tires.

Number 2 of the stash bash completed- Biggie Rat! More pix in under glass.

Lots of progress on Biggie Rat- body and interior mostly done except for windscreens, grille, headlights, radiator and hoses installed, front suspension mounting to be fabricated and installed, steering to be built and installed, throttle linkage and fuel lines also to be febbed and installed.

Great mixes and matches! Also one of my favorite kits.

I have an F and F resin 1956 Lincoln Continental Mark II- Nice kit!

Only saw this post on the 14th, wish it had been posted sooner.

Super job! Very nice figures and excellent model cars! Love the model contest!

Definitely on the right track! Regarding the tires, I suggest replacing them and the wheels with 1/25th scale items.

Rob, the engine is a V-16 made from 2 Bugatti Royale blocks with scratch built dual overhead cam heads and two centrifugal superchargers from the parts box.

Second build of the Stash Bash- Biggie Rat rat rod.

Mockup for Biggie Rat rat rod.

Bruce, it's 1/25th scale with Green Hornet wheels and tires.

First completion of the stash bash! 1933 Ford chopped coupe with 2 40 Ford noses put together for the front end. Built as a curbside, something I don't often do. More pix in under glass, I also have been working on a giant V-16 which will go into a stash bash King Rat with a Duesenberg frame, Model A roadster body and big rig wheels and tires. The V-16 started many years ago with 2 Bugatti Royale engine blocks. Added dual overhead camshafts, 2 centrifugal superchargers, and 2 large 4bbl carbs from the parts box. Will be fabricating the carb linkage and fuel lines as the project progresses.

I like it!

Excellent Deuces!

Fantastic build- beautiful detailing and finish!

my go to for weathering is artist's chalk pastels applied mostly with my fingers and a few q tips. Works especially well on flat finishes.

Glad to trade with Al- any time!

Any thought for pie cutting the body to reduce the height of the rear fenders?
