I got the chassis completed, motor installed minus headers, and have started adding the little details. Skull shifter, skull radiator cap and skull with hair to replace cattle horns (Thanks Bill!!!). Wood areas have been dry-brushed to give it a "creepy" look

...........I did a first on this one.....I used tamiya metallic black and candy lime green and clear coated with tamiya pearl, The finish was nice, not great. I decided to try the future floor finish. I simple used a soft brush and applied a some-what heavy coat of the future finish by brush and set it aside to dry. I was very pleased with the results and this was on top of the tamiya pearl clear. I did the frame, body, and fenders................Thanks, Fred

Like the use of color, and that wigged-out skull sets it all off! Maybe you could change the lettering on the slicks to "Dead Year Vulture"!

Hey Tim, C.H.U.D. stands for Canibalistic Human Underground Dweller!! A canibal movie but these guys If I remember correctly are a military experiment that ends up in the sewer---more of a swamp thing than human

..... I probably should have called this the "Wrong Turn Wagon" based on a movie called "wrong Turn"about some backwoods brothers who were canibals and would cause car wecks on some old desserted road, then take the people and well eat em"

!! the movie is actually well made and very good. ;D ;D.

But seeing that I cannot make my own decals and having the patience of a 5 year old on christmas day, It was just easier to rework the kit decals and make CHUD out of Chuck ;D ;D ;D............Don't ya hate when laziness prevails over true art!!!!!

....................................Fred

Oh yeah, I know I am stuck on Green and black(LOL) ...It is like the official color of the Seneca Falls Haunted House (www.sfhauntedhouse.com) and of course the hearse!!!...um......and my hair!!..................Must try to break out of this rut!!!!(LOL) ;D ;D

Sounds like a very similar storyline
