Who doesn't love a mock-up? Let's see yours!

I feel your pain! I'm in the same position now myself, and it doesn't help that I have a 3D printer.

If I had a 3D printer I’d be dangerous ??

Had to do a poser shot after base coat.

American car guy got out of the comfort zone... This is an Imai 72 Skyline which I got as a partly build project. As there is no engine or separate suspension in the kit and I got also a built Tamiya Mazda RX7 so I decided to put the chassis and engine from that to the Skyline. Way more work than I thought but now the modifications are done to get the wheels in place. Those are Aoshima 14" with spare part box tires. Lot of work still ahead. My son is building a newer Skyline so we have bit of a competition ongoing.

If I had one, I wouldn't know where to start... I don't even have a PC...?

A rose by any other name is still a rose! How do I love thee,,, let me count the ways: The nose; thy lower bead line; body drop and most of all - the chopped & visored lid! Outstanding presentation, Brother!  btw Your hood sucks in a most delightful way!! -KK

Thanks Brother! Still thinking about that hood thing you suggested!

Lot of work went into that, it looks like…that’s awesome!

I've started a new build of an old kit, the Monogram '37 Cord 812. It looks like it should build up pretty good.

ADHD.....you start off wiring your distributer for your 59 Elcamino and while the paint dries you go hmmmm....

Lots of slicing and dicing yet to go. Mocked up on a stock chassis, so it's in the nosebleed section at the moment. 

.....oh, yeah.....the distributor.....

Picked up this little 1/43 Heller Citroen 11CV at the Butch O’Hare IPMS show a month ago (for A DOLLAR!) and decided I was going to build it as a mild Hot Rod, starting with getting the right stance. Since it is extra basic, the wheels are held on with just axles coming off the chassis plate, so I cut those off and replaced them with some rod of a similar diameter that will be glued to the top Of the chassis plate to drop it a little.

I’m planning on shaving the handles, losing the bumpers and a few other things while cleaning up the flash.

Here's my current project: I got inspired to build a 49 Ford Shoebox version of Chris Piscitelli's rendering of the RamChargers High and Mighty drag car. An example of art imitating art imitating life? 😃

Put a Ford Cammer engine in it to beat their Hemi Plymouth.

OK, so I've settled on my next project. It's in Easy Off right now and I'll get seriously into it after the Plymouth wagon is finished.

Just hope those fender flares come off the front fenders without too much drama. 🙄

That looks like a fun rebuild, I'll be keeping an eye out for it. 

Do you plan on posting in the WIP section?

Oh, yea. 

I do wish we could post private pickups, vans and suvs in the regular car section though as opposed to "commercial" vehicle section.

Won't be nothing "commercial" about this one.😉

I mocked up a Revell 68 Firebird this weekend with Zforcemodelworx 20/21 redline smoothie wheels/tires and Fireball Modelworks Pontiac Poverty hubcaps.I will be starting on this one shortly.

[VanGoGo]

Decided to lower it, not too crazy...just dropping it untill the mufflers and tie rods will be touching the ground

It only clear or ready chromed parts could be 3D printed ??  Or am I missing a new development?

[1959]

Trying to save a glue bomb Mercury that was terribly chopped. Lots of work behind and now I finally reached the point to make a first mock up, although hubcaps and tires most probably will be changed.
