The Tom Daniel Pie Wagon is done. This is the re-issue from Atlantis. I built this in the early 70’s as a kid but this time it’s a bit better built.  All the body seams were molded together and smoothed before paint to avoid the huge gap that is usually present in these builds. Lowered ¼” in rear.  Color is MCW Finishes Pink Panther Lacquer with Tamiya Pearl Clear and Gloss Clear. All chrome was stripped and rechromed with Revell.  Engine details include alternator from Iceman Collections, and spark plug boots, wires and looms from Detail Masters.  3D rear shocks and steering linkage, and the valve stems on tires are also from Iceman Collections.  Tom Daniel kits are still some of the coolest around.  Enjoy.

Wow, great job Scott I love the color. I have also thought about rebuilding one of these, hopefully a lot better than the one i built forever ago. Every time i see one of these it reminds me of my grandpa, whenever we were eating pie , he would always say,” I only like two kinds of pie— hot and cold 🤪

Absolute beauty, including the photos. Deserves to be cover art on the Atlantis box! I'm doing virtually the same color combo right now myself, but my build won't be anywhere as nice as yours. I'm finding the body shells tricky to glue together.
