1/24 Monogram Duesenberg SJ Roadster

Post by SigEp Ziggy »

I decided to try another car model, this one starts as a challenge. This model I bought used and it was missing the four white walls for the tires AND the instruction manual, so it sat in my stash for a very long time. Well I found the white walls on ebay for $15 and I found the manual on Fotki

Should be fun, if a little "interesting" in some places in the build, Shane.

Neat project!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Looks fun Lyle! Would not mind getting my hands on one of those one day. Always makes me think of Cruella Deville :giggles:

Cool. I built a couple of the "Classic" series cars way back.
Thanks,

This is one car model I've never been able to complete, despite starting three of them. I'll be watching this one close.

I got the parts I needed today, put a coat of semigloss clear on the chrome sprue and started working on the engine.
