My 6th Scale M151A2 Jeep Mutt

[kgb424]

I don't like how the front foams shift around

Cause of the used sticky back weights

I'm going to eliminate the shifting and weights on the inner ring

With a set of these The Scale Shop brake drums

the rear 1.9'' brake drums will work with my Hutchinson beadlocks

And I can run them in the rear or not run them in the rear

They weight 1.32 oz each and work like a SlW hub

[kgb424]

I got the body post holes in

I need to open the holes up a little more

Then shoe goo and drywall tape around the holes

I also glued in the grill and glued on the emblems

They look pretty good

Lets see how long they stay on

[kgb424]

I found these grey Wraith seats

In my parts stash and don't remember

Where they even came from

They do look better than the black ones

With green trim that does not match anything

I like the Corbeau stickers

I could also paint some black trim on them

Like every other panel on the seats center

[kgb424]

I got my The Scale Shop

Rear 1.9'' brake drums

The wheels are 5 7/8 oz's without the brake drums

And with the brake drums installed the wheels weigh 7 1/4 oz

Thinking about painting them the same color as the wheels

Or go with flat black but I also kinda of like them

Unpainted cause they don't look that bad

[kgb424]

I tried to glue some screen inside the body

To cover the side windows and it would not stick to save my ass

So I used screws and the roof screws and mounted the screen

To the side of the body

I like how it looks

What do you think of screened out windows ??

[Mike Flea]

Looks good, are you also going to put it on the front, or is there a windshield on that body?

[kgb424]

Yes I'm leaving the windshield cause

I would screw it up and make it look shitty by cutting the windshield out

I ordered 2 mini toggle switches too turn on and off the esc and lights

and I can easily reach them thru the windshield

with the body off and flip the switches that are going to be mounted in the center console

So I think I will leave the screen on the sides for a little while

It makes it harder too pick up and carry the Wraith

I might remove it later

I'm building this Wraith completely different from

the first time I built my 2 Wraiths

I think I should built them both 1.9'' cause there way more scale looking

[kgb424]

My cousin sent this cause

He saw pictures of my 1/6th scales builds

With G.I. Joe as the driver

I need a dead animal bigger than a squirrel

To one up him since I got a 1/6th 50 cal machine gun

and a scale RPG from my EXO kit

One can pose with the 50 cal and one with the RPG over a dead cat if I can find one

you know I got to one bigger than my cousin

[kgb424]

That's why there action figures

And not My Pretty Ponies

Like the Taco plays with

He has admitted several times

He plays with dolls

and every one else my self included

Plays with action figures

Yes I went there

And dam quick too

[kgb424]

Yeah Baby

I just pulled the trigger and bought

A Pre-ordered

Dragon 1:6 Scale 1/4 Ton 4x4 Truck Model Kit

From Plastic-Model-kits.com

[kgb424]

Yeah Baby

I just scored 2 1/6 scale trailers

The longer one is a G.I. Joe trailer

The shorter trailer is a Marx Toys

And I bid on a set of replacement brake lights for the G.I. Joe trailer

I also have a 1/10 trialer that I use the leaf springs from it for the 1/6th scale trailer

Cause I don't use it for none of my r/c's have hitches

[kgb424]

I could use the longer trailer for the Jeep Mutt

I found these pics today that 21st Century made a trailer with the same rims and tires as the Mutt has

It has different brake lights than the G.I. Joe trailer and the fenders are square while the G.I. Joe are rounded

I could make matching fenders like the 21st trailer has on the G.I. Joe trailer

and use the shorter Marx trailer with the Dragon cause it smaller

Cause I think the Mutt is bigger than than Dragon Jeep

So the smaller trailer might look better with the Dragon

[kgb424]

I also found this it a 1/35 scale model kit

Jeep Mutt with a hard top and Trailer with cover

I could take some Styrene and make cover for the trailers

And mount extra gas cans or ammo boxes on the back of the trailers

Not sure if the ends are closed in

You can't tell from the pics

I like it, looks like a camper trailer

[kgb424]

Yeah Baby Yeah

Las Vegas is getting a NHL team for the 2017-2018 season

I would go see hockey in the desert and the Taco Crawler too

Taco take that as warning cause I's coming

So now its Hockey and Hookers and Booze and Buffet's and gambling and some crazy shit you would not see anywhere else and of course the Taco is his natural state

Yeah baby Yeah

Taco better hide his valvables

I'm south bound with hammer down

Cause I'm already gone

[kgb424]

I bought a rubber 1/6 scale gas can mold

Can any one tell me

What casting material I use

To cask 2 piece 1/6 gas cans

Both halves need glued

Together, so the material needs to be

Light weight and paintable

[kgb424]

Yeah Baby

I won the Rear replacement Hasbro trailer lights for the longer trailer

And I resisted the urge and impulse to

Buy this 1/6 scale WC-57 Command Car

Now I'm kicking my own ass

Cause the winning bid was only $51.00 and the shipping was $50.42 so for $101.42

Doah I could of had a Command Car

I am a dumbass cause I thought there was going to a bidding war

And there was only 7 bids to get to $51.00

Heads up my ass

Cause I know some one here would of bought it and I could made my money back and a little extra maybe

Its ok Goosefraba cause I got my 1/6 Dragon Jeep kit coming and the 2 1/6 trailers I scored and now the replacement trailer lights

The Mutt's on hold for now

I hope the Dragon is here soon

Goosefraba

[kgb424]

Dam it this must be a sign

Here is another WC-52

Cause I looked online

And found a picture that matches but no info on the truck

I also found pictures of WC55 with M3A1 37 mm anti-aircraft gun

The WC55 is a modified WC52

Check out the guy .50 cal he's ready to Rock and Roll

I really like the body style of the WC52

Its only $600

Its better than $102 WC57

I also found a 1/6 scale crate and 1/6 scale weapons case

They both open for storage

But did not buy them

In the classic movie 1941

They gave Ward Herbert Douglas AKA Ned Beatty a 40 mm Anti-Aircraft gun

And told him it was his patriotic duty to put it in his front yard

The 40 mm is a lot bigger than the 37 mm maybe that's why you don't see the 40 mm in vehicles

like you do with the 37 mm in the WC55

[Mike Flea]

You might try expandable foam, just remember to spray the mold with PAM before you apply the foam. You might also need a cover for the mold, maybe use a piece of clear plastic or a sheet of styrene to cover the mold once you put the foam in the mold, otherwise it will expand all over.

[kgb424]

Nope not going use spray foam

It too much of a pain in the ass

I will look for some cheap 2 part plastic resin

Cause I think there is a mold for the lid of the gas can in the upper part of the mold

not sure I will have to see when the mold gets here

I just want too make a 1 or 2 and see how they look

And see how the 2 halves go together and glue on up

Before buying a lot of resin and start making a bunch of them

I hope the plastic is paintable

[kgb424]

I seen this 1/6 Hasbro Jeep with doors and a soft top

I found a set of matching doors, not sure

If they fit a Dragon Jeep and not sure if I like the look

Since mine doesn't have a soft top and I can't sow

The Dragon kit, does include the loops for a top

The doors are on Ebay if somebody

Wanted them
