P-38 Lighting by Guillow's
Yes, Another plane never completed many, many years ago. Bought a new kit and built it during the winter of 2015-16
I put a two channel radio in this rubber powered plane, elevator and ailerons. Still haven't test flown it. Feels a little heavy. Don't laugh, U-control fliers use RC while flying.

Chris Craft 32' Super Deluxe Enclosed Cruiser by Sterling Models
Size: Length 28" Beam 9-1/4"
Engine: 15 Enya water cooled
Muffler: Homemade exhaust and wet type.
Had it laying around for years as you can tell by the finish and the mouse mess.
I'm building another boat now, so I'm going to clean her up and repaint her at the same time.
The factory was burned down that built this kit so this kit is not made anymore, so I'm limited with the hardware.
I punched a hole through the side while adjusting the carburetor, A friend of mine laughed and called it the "USS Minnow".
P-47 Scale project: Kit Top Flite
Size: Wing span 85" Fuselage length 72" Engine: 55 DLE (gas 5.5 hp.) with onboard electric start. Pneumatic retractable landing gear Radio: Futaba 14SGA 14-Channel 2.4GHz Telemetry Transmitter I pondered for some time and finally decided this is how I want my P-47 to look like. I collected many pictures and even bought a couple plastic models to get the scale as close as possible. I went to an air museum for some quality pictures. Unfortunately the guide would not let me take any close ups around the plane for rivet detail. I have started building this fine aircraft. I am trying to build this plane as close to the actual P-47. So some of the building techniques will not be as traditional as other model aircraft. You can follow my progress by clicking on the P-47 picture. |

Piper Cub by Great Planes
Mission: To transform this old Cub into something respectable some day
Mission: To transform this old Cub into something respectable some day
1969 Firebird Convertible
This Firebird originally had a 350 HO engine. Unknowingly I bought it with a 1973, 400 ci, 225HP. The 350 HO was underrated as 320 HP because of Federal Standards. She's still got the original Muncy 4 speed manual transmission, and the limited slip posy differential. Since the serial numbers don't match because of the engine, I can build her any way I want. She'll end up part 400, part Formula, and part Trans AM. The engine is a 1972, 400 cid The engine colors are factory except for the chrome oil pan. Upper Left; New Engine - 425 H.P.
