Apparently, I like to cut things up. Maybe I'm under-compensating! Anyhoo, I created a shorter version of the Koach, something for an easier commute to the parlor, or gruesome grocery shopping! Something for Eddie to use later in life? for cruising. It's got a built in "loveseat" for entertaining Glossy black and BMFing. Copper and brass touches. And a WIP pic: Thanks for looking!

I really like how this turned out. Since it is shorter it looks like a Munsters Gasser. This version may beat Grand Pa's Dragula. Nice Work!

Well done!!.
Why hasn't someone actually built this in 1 to 1 scale, this is so groovy. Now imagine it with the flower power treatment. This is something a older buddy of mine has been throwing around for a while, he remembers everything with that paint treatment done on it. He's recently acquired a 23 T tourer but just wait to he takes a gander (gets a look) at that lil Ripper. All ron builds is 1:1 scale phantoms.

Love your "Shorty" version of this great kit , and the mods you did to it. Amazing how 2 guy's can see a project so differently, and yet have them both turn out so good. Back panel with the window in it is especially "KOOL". All the best - Dave

Thanks, guys! Love your "Shorty" version of this great kit , and the mods you did to it. Amazing how 2 guy's can see a project so differently, and yet have them both turn out so good. Back panel with the window in it is especially "KOOL". All the best - Dave Dave I enjoyed watching your build take shape. It must have planted the seed that we can take a car that I'd passed on so many times, and turn it into something I enjoy having on the shelf. And, that rear window let's the driver be able to check if his rear-seat passenger got launched at that last pothole!

That's a great idea and an even better implementation!

I was checking out some more of your old builds Plastimatic - this one is TOO cool! I really loved getting to see it in-progress too - can't beat a WIP shot! Great concept! I wouldn't wanna have to sit on that seat on the back though...I bet with this short wheelbase this thing could wheelie pretty good!
