Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Thanks mate, It is nice using up old bits and pieces. I had to change some of my ideas as they just wouldn't fit this kit. The exhaust is the OG now as I put a kick start peg on and I had to chop another front fender as the one I was going didn't fit the front forks. 110
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 08/10/2026#buildthestash Well I think the best way to thin the stash is to use the biggest boxes. 3241
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Inspired by the motorcycle builds I have seen in the last few days, here is today's progress on the custom IMAI. Harley Davidson. 5252
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I have been doing some landscaping for the last two days. This is a natural paver pathway ready for the gravel which I will pickup tomorrow. I didn't take any photos of the the road base and sand laid under the pavers. 182
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Tank, seat and very happy with the chopped back fender test fit out. 040
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I was in my garden yesterday and I found this bead from a button that one of the local birds has gifted us. They always put their offerings in the same place. So I decided to use it in this model build. 040
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Choices were made primmer has been applied. A rear fender has been chopped as well as a smaller front one for the front. I have also given the 1st test fit of the engine. I will be doing the oil lines next with some more painting. 050
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 24/09/2026The blue tank is the original IMAI. The white peanut tank is a Revell. Or an Aoshima the biggest tank, so many options. 171
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 23/09/2026That time I got backstage with my wife and meet Angry. (I took the picture). 010
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 23/09/2026RIP Angry Anderson, I got to see you playing four times with Rose Tattoo. 121
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Another Shovelhead on the bench was always on the cards after a pocket bike. IMAI 1/12 Fat Bob with some modifications, got to try to use some spare parts. 3192
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 16/09/2026It also didn't fit as well as I would of liked, but it is good enough for a spot in the display cabinet. 020
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 16/09/2026All done on AMT's Drag School Bus. It had one broken piece (windshield supports) when I opened it. I reglued it but I wasn't happy with the result, so new ones were made. Overall it not my best paint job it only had 2 coats as I used up all my Zero yellow paint. 3100
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I made some more progress today, still a lot of chrome and decal choices. 180
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Another AMT kit up next a 60's School Bus and all that's left of my to build stash. #Buildthestash 1232
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Sorry for you loss, it is never easy letting go over the rainbow bridge. 020
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 30/08/2026I have finished AMT's "Graveyard Ghoul Duo" The Overtaker/Drag U Lar was a little bit more fiddly, I'm happy with the overall building of these two. 2254
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Everything is cut off and painted, on the final leg for Drag-U-Lar. 160
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 25/08/2026This one came together really well, I didn't paint the body just detailed it. I am going to paint the other car as I don't like the colour it is molded in. 110
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 25/08/2026I started the Munsters cars yesterday after finishing the Mustang. I seem to have completed Herman's, onto Grandpa's Drag-U-Lar. 2192
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Revell's 007's Mustang Mach 1. I think it is a little darker red than it should be, my first movie car. 4202
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Rear lights are in with the front window painted. Bonnet hinges are attached and space tested in the engine bay. 040
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 22/08/2026007's Mach 1 Mustang is coming along nicely. Two coats of clear on top of one clear red, time to wait until these harden up. I will then mask the body and paint the chrome around the windows. Still a bit to go. 1161
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 16/08/2026First coat of paint on the body with decals to apply on multiple places in the engine bay, not to much left to do. 0203
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 10/08/2026The engine is in and the interior is finished. I have a little bit to do in the engine bay. I am still to start painting the body but the primmer is on Mr. Bond's Mach 1 Mustang. 1192
Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Well I am still working, ever so slowly on the 007 Mustang engine. I was at the markets again and this gem appeared, some Munsters cars in the build pipeline. 0111

Jeff @jrs69.bsky.social · 22/05/2026I got a crack in my 14 year old watch band so I pulled it apart cleaned the watch and fitted a replacement one. It cost a hundred dollars to buy the band, but it's almost like new(still has scratches on the face). 130
