VonRecktofen63 Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Hey Gang, Long time listener, first time posting.....Anyway, just getting back in to building after a 30+ year break.... I built this Little Red Wagon in about a week for my Girlfriend's daughter who works at a body shop and is a Dodge fan.... Please be gentle, just my first build, and the rollbar on the interior on this was a PITA.... Oh well, here he is! Next up.....The Revell '43 Willys Gasser Pick Up
espo Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 I think it looks very good. Even better since you have been away for a while. I guess it's like riding a bicycle, you just always have it.
Hmann68 Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Looks great to me! Always wanted to do this one. Might have to pick one up!
Peter Lombardo Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 The paint looks great..... well done.
donb Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 You did a really nice job on this after being away for awhile. And welcome back to the hobby and please keep posting!
MAGIC MUFFLER Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Heck ... I'd be proud to have that one on my shelf, that's a nice job!! Can't wait to see the Willy's..
bbowser Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 You didn't pick an easy kit to come back with, well done!
VonRecktofen63 Posted February 25, 2017 Author Posted February 25, 2017 Thanks for the kind words! I definitely left a lot of room for improvement, but it felt good to get one finished (sort of)...I mounted it in a taller Tamiya Motorcycle display box, (in full wheelstand of course!) and this one now lives on a desk at an auto body restoration shop in Atlantic Highlands, NJ....I'm going to also work on a smaller light box so that I can get some decent pictures as well...Almost forgot, I had built a Volkswagen Zzzinger model last year, and I just need to dig it out, dust it off, and I'll post some better pics of that one soon... Thanks again for the warm welcome back to the hobby!Cheers,Franz in NJ
VonRecktofen63 Posted March 4, 2017 Author Posted March 4, 2017 (edited) As promised, here's the dusty Zzzzinger SuperVolks that I built a while back, but forgot about.... I built a quick cardboard lightbox and used my cellphone camera....Now I need to find a Macro lens for my digital camera! Anyway, here he is! Would Love to find the Dodge Van Zzzzinger! Cheers, Franz in NJ Edited March 4, 2017 by VonRecktofen63
Tom Geiger Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 Franz, you are a short hop away from our Tri-State Scale Model Car Club meetings in Perth Amboy! (I'm originally from Hazlet)Our meeting is next Saturday. Check our website for information and directions. The directions are a bit tricky to find the back parking lot for the church. My cell is on the webpage, so feel free to call me.www.tssmcc.org
Preston Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Nice Wagon build. I built it as a kid and recently started building the reissue.
Dominik Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 The paint looks great..... well done.i agree. I never built it as a Little red wagon. Nice to see one!
