Here's an odd question...
Anyone ever seen a 1:24 scale liquor bottle? Or something that could pass for one...
 or something similar? For my Rat Rod Pickup, apparently it's common in their circles to use liquor bottles as radiator overflows.

A 1/24 wine bottle.
 It was turned on a lathe, but this sort of thing is really up to your own creativity. Ever heat stretch sprue over a candle? Try it with clear sprue. The ends are very close to the size and shape of booze bottles.

Re: Here's an odd question...
That's an excellent idea, but I think I'm set on making a SQUAREish bottle, like a whiskey bottle might look, y'know? Wine isn't really something rat rodders drink.
 But then I suppose I could just make it with clear styrene anyway, melting it with a candle... neat idea.

Visit a local hobby store chain such as Hobby Lobby or any stores that sell doll houses and doll house furniture. You should be able to find bottles of all sorts for doll house kitchens that will work.
