Thanks Mostrich, Tom, Mark and Kari. Along with sheer determination, the encouragement I get from fellas like you helps me keep moving along with this build. Thanks a mil guys.

I got to re-looking at the hood and scoop and decided that the scoop needed some engine numbers on it. I had a set of decals that said "BOSS 429" on them so I decided to cut the BOSS part out and trim up the 429 numbers and apply them. I'll let 'em dry out and clear it in the coming days. I think it added a nice touch to the front of the truck.



I now have all the Street Demons kits as of last Thursday. I see another 429 going into at least one of these...possibly the 54 Chev or the 41 Willys. Decisions, decisions, decisions....... Hmm....

Willys! that's a cool looking car!

Nice work on that Gloss coat - it looks the business!

[mustang1989]

Thanks Stuart! That Willy's may be the one that gets that 429.

Thanks Stuart! That Willy's may be the one that gets that 429.

Actually I've seen a kit for a Willy's hotrod/funny car before that I thought looked cool - when I finally get around to doing a car kit I thought I might start with one - need to remember who made the kit.

Let's see ....

We've got this one...



this one....



another Revell offering....



another one....



a 41 Willy's truck....



a little wilder version of that truck....



still another truck version from Revell....

[mustang1989]

and then you have the AMT versions of the 40 Willys ( the front wheels/ tires need to be changed out and the rears need to be tucked a little though....it's so 80's)



a modified version of the kit above (I actually like the truck here but those nasty hood scoops have to GO)



this one...



another...



and if you want to go back a little further in the years, a 33 Willys



and these are just some of the ones I know about.

[Stuart]

Cooooolllll! I'm thinking of the Revell one with the K.T. Pittman markings I think.

This one.............(FYI all these Revell kits are pretty much the same except for decals, mold color and some wheel/ tire change outs but they are great kits)
