Hey,

I have about 1% completed. I've stolen some wagon wheels from a playmobile stagecoach. Now all I need to do is everything else...

Awesome progress thread. So... are you going for the same paint scheme or CF the whole thing? :lol:

You totally have to go with CF on the whole thing.

If you have a few hundred bucks, you could upgrade to 2 hp.

Yes! Cover it in CF( LOL). That should give rivetcounters a strange look when they see it on a contest.
And why not get those Playmobile horses a leg-chop? Definetly a Amish-lowrider afterwards.

( You`re crazy with those ideas!! Do you remeber to ventilate when gluing, or what? )

Dude you have some badass ideas in this thread. Slam it, chrome the rims, add a bitchin' sound system (hand crank, though, 3 watts) all CF, give the horses breather tubes hooked to nitrous....

Wow. Brilliant project!

Bigger rims!!! :lol:

Turbos and nitrous is also good... Will boost the 1hp. :lol: JK... it will definitely be a unique project. Will you be building it in 1/24 scale?

Ok. Finally got the kit from ebay. I really have no idea what scale this is. Someone told me they thought it was around 1/16 tho. I will build this one(someday yea...:rolleyes) then scale it down to 1/25. Yes. All wood body....hooray....plastic wheels, and metail nails. Body will be brush painted flat black. Interior will be brush painted flat black. Invisible horse will be painted flat black. Sooo exciting!!!;)

LMAO!!!

What a cool project!!! Good luck!!!!

There's funeral home here in town that I pass on my daily walks. In the window is an amazing horse-drawn hearse model! The sucker is huge too! Has to be over two feet long with out the horses. Love it! I should swing in and see if they'll let me snap a few pics!

Oh, don't forget the little orange triangle reflector for the back!
