adamelvis Posted February 23, 2023 Author Share Posted February 23, 2023 (edited) Hurst Shifters from DM. And my “Go Baby Go” shifter knob. Fuel Cell and NOS bottle. Opened up the trunk on this Eleanor, so I have to show all the goodies inside. I also made a custom aluminum battery box. This DM fire extinguisher was a multiple piece set. Lots of work, but the end result is this highly detailed bottle. WOW. Also, made this Nitrous switch and Armed lightbulb piece.

Katsusauce Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Not a real fan of Fords, but I absolutely love this "Elenor" build! "Go Baby Go!" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamelvis Posted February 23, 2023 Author Share Posted February 23, 2023 I absolutely love these wheels that came with Scale Production’s “Eleanor” transkit. The billet aluminum wheel lip really makes it look good. The color I used for the rims was Tamiya Titanium Gold. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve H Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 This is coming along VERY nicely Adam. Beautiful looking build, with fantastic details. I have a fairly large order from Scale Production arriving in about 10 days, good to hear and see, that they are in fact a nice product. On a side note, will you be at the Vancouver show tomorrow? If so, let’s try and say hello in person. Cheers, Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I did bring my Fall Guy Truck and the green Mitsubishi Eclipse from Fast & Furious. What builds did you bring ? Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Wait a Minute, I remember, your amazing 70 1/2' Pro Touring Camaro in matte red. I followed that build on here ! Lots of work went into that one and it is one of my favorites, that and the engine in your matte red 40' Ford P/U. Yes, we should have chatted. Lets do that at the IPMS show in Oct here in Van.

I took six builds over, that was a good and very well attended show. My wallet was a little thinner on the way home as the vendors had some some good stuff… Cheers, Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamelvis Posted October 29 Author Share Posted October 29 Back to the Build ! Sorry for the long delay folks. I will only work on this build till it’s finished. (fingers crossed - completion end of 2024) Status Update: Chrome trim is all done. Interior components are all painted and ready for installation. Interior flocking and scratch built dome light need to be done. Rear Trunk goodies all built, painted and ready for installation. Front & Rear Suspension completed & ready for installation. Engine wiring completed & ready to be dropped in. Need completion of the custom Total Control front suspension (under the hood) Need final install of the Grill, Badges, Hood Pins and Wheels. (still struggling with the colour match on these Hallibrands though) Stay Tuned …! TCB, Adam 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
