While I was cutting up the SurfBeetL, I also had the AMT 3n1 kit on the table, and thought it might be fun to just shorten it without distorting it's lines. Here's what I ended up with:      The frame, running boards, tub (as well as floorboard) and driveshaft were shortened. I'm sure it's cramped in there, but drivable  . Painted satin Hunter green and black, steel and amber drybrush on the undecarriage. Whitewalls from the parts bin (1931 Sedan?) to give it that runabout look. |

This could easily pass for a Deals Wheels type!
Very nice work.

Real, but off-kilter. I would have had to car'toon' it up some more to get that DW flavor (and I was waiting to see what Keith (Eggzilla) does with that '29 Pickup he started way back, should he ever get around to it). And, Ira: thanks! It makes me smile too! |

What a sweet, short, ride. The green paint makes me think "English". Hey, stuff Wallace and Grommit in it. Great photos.
