Junkyard Dog 66' Malibu.

Heres the latest addition to "Angelino's Salvage yard"

I pulled this from the pile of old kit's I recieved from JCPiscopo here on the board, see:

modelmasters.proboards3.com/index.cgi?board=Generalkitdiscussion&action=display&n=1&thread=86

It's the 1978 Release of Monogram's 66' malibu SS.

I am about 80% complete so far. This baby is rusted real bad. bumper is rotted through, motor is all siezed and rust welded together and full of dirt and dust.

Heres the latest on the left for dead malibu.

I opened the trunk up with a dremel ad I painted it bright red.
I am going to fab up some hinges and display it opened with junk and parts inside.

I made the floor of the trunk from 12 mil papaer the painted it flat black then immediately dumped fine dirt/dust to look very weathered.

I also asdded some white haze to the intake to attempt to simulate oxidation.
I dented up the undercarriage and gas tank.
I banged up the mufflers a little more too.

I am now 95% done. Chheck it out.

That looks great!!!! Whats your secret???

[ONEBADMK8]

Thanks Moe.

Heres some more.

Tonight I cut out the trunk and painted it red, borrowed some hinges from a junked 70's release Revell 57 Chevy kit.

I flattened the tires a little more and detailed the rust over again.

You are doing a great job every one you do looks a little more real! Do you have any pictures of the charger and TA I could see ? What do you use to melt the plastic ?

I love the screwed up tank and muflers looks great!
