'46 Chevy Hearse Hauler

[dogfish7]

Just started this one to Haul my 46 Chevy Salt Flats Racer. It's the Galaxie kit with a JF resin body.


This required stretching the chassis about 5 scale feet.

I agree that is COOL! what giant of a car. Man! every time I look at this site I want something else. There's a kit flea market coming 2/24 in the Chicago area , I will be looking for one of the Galaxie kits. tom

Such good work it gives me a chuckle! Fab-u-loso! Great pix and step-by-step on how it's done. Thanx!

[dogfish7]

Yes, it's a Jimmy resin. Used the salt method to age the bottom of the chassis and 2 coat for aging the body paint.

Wow, coming along great.

Made some time to work on the Hauler yesterday and today. Finished up the drive trains and chassis, painted and worked on the motors. Decided to use a Tamiya Olive Green on the body to give it more of a WWII Ambulance look.






Now have to age the paint job.

[geezerman]

Engines look great !!!!

Is that 'baby diaper' green the only color you have ?

[dogfish7]

That's Tamiya Olive Green to replicate WWII Ambulance colors:)

looking good, could not find a Galixie kit at the show, I look real hard too, oh well. I just want those extra front ends. maybe next time.

I did a little more on the weathering, but haven't made time to work on it lately.


Have to build a Rease Hitch and mount to haul the 46 Saltster.
