MPC Dodge Deora

[PWick]

With the big chairs in the back?

No I think it had a full cover over the truck bed with two surfboards. Search Images of Dodge Deora on Google.

today, build and fit slant 6 engine..................

Test space around the engine with body fitted................

I may have to re-route the exhaust exit so as not to dis-colour or burn the surfboard.

Uber cool!!

 

[Spree]

There's some fine detail on the motor fella. Really precise looks good

 

[PWick]

Thanks Spree, I've had a lot of work around the house I hope to carry on with this one, in the next few days.

The last few pics to finish off this build.....
The extended exhaust ...............

The exhaust exit, in the middle in front of the back axle...............

I scanned the Deora logo and printed off a few decals of various sizes......

The new surfboard I made for this build with a new decal................

My major mistake was to chrome the windscreen surround, too fragile to remove, plus the drop down front door with a new decal and the headlight/bumper unit in place...........

The completed body chassis unit with the new board in the hanger.............

The completed build pics to come.

That is one very unusual vehicle indeed, I like it. Found a photo of the front.

Yes I wish the model door was the same, but I did see on Google serach someone had built thier model with a tube hinge so that the door would open like this one!

Well Spree I use either clear or white decal paper, you can get it from most online craft shops, ours here in the UK is The Crafty Computer Paper Co. They have a page of instructions, you need to get the variety that suits your printer bo it ink-jet or laser.

You sir are a diamond. Thank you. Is it easy to work with? I'm doing lettering, in a previous existing design. I tried hobby craft (I'm in the UK too, bad predictive must've give it away) but they were useless.

Hi Colin, no I tried Hobbycraft but no go. Yes the decal paper is easy to work with,(or I wouldn't be doing it!) stick to the instructions given in the pack(s)
