OK All, This is my first attempt at building a Resin Garage Kit> It is 1:18 scale and bought it off a guy on eBay about 4 years ago and was waiting until I had time and space to build. Because it was a garage kit, there was a lot of cutting, grinding and sanding to make it all fit, especially to get a smooth surface to look like sheet steel or aluminum. I didn't weather it as it is supposed to be a future solar car so no oil stains etc. Any comments or suggestions to help me prepare to build the KT is appreciated
Here is picture of original, then my build.

Dude, is that your collection on all those metal shelves or are you running a toy store out of the back room?

Re: 1/18 Logans Run Car
LOL. That's my collection room over my garage/workshop. When I retired from the Army a few years ago, we moved down to Alabama and I promised the wife I would keep all of my toy/collection in my workshop so I had a detached garage built with a room over the top. (although she lets me keep some of my collection in the movie room too ) It actually looks worse (or better, depending on how you look at it ) since that picture was a couple of years ago and I've collected more stuff over those years[CAT]CplSlade wrote:Dude, is that your collection on all those metal shelves or are you running a toy store out of the back room?

That is an awesome build!
All you need now is Logan, Jessica and REM to in 1/18 to complete the look.
(Don't include Francis - he is a party pooper... )
