    That wzs certainly a great build, it's a pity you don't see a lot of these kits in the shops, especially here in Australia, my only issue would be I think lot of kits like this would need the molds updatec, I remember seeing this tupe of ambulance on TV way back in the early '60's on series comes to mind and that is Dr Kildare, very bedt regards from Australia and have a Happy New Year

    That is a very cool kit! I had a friend way back when that had a 63 Cadillac "flower car" which he said was used to take flowers from a funeral to the wake (or vice versa). It had mags and was jacked up in the back. I would love to build that!

    Looks really good. Nice detailing job to make something plain stand out. It could easily be made into a hearse which would be a good-looking build also. The wide whites are perfect for this vehicle.

    • @charliegilliland9216
      @charliegilliland9216 6 місяців тому

      Many of the Miller-Meteors of that time were made to be dual purpose as either ambulance or hearse, depending on which was needed at a given time.

  • @no.email.please
    @no.email.please 6 місяців тому +3

    HEY-DAR 👊😎👍: This Kit turned out Great Louie. Not to many parts, to bad the hood don't open. You got one of those food dehydrater thingies to put those parts in to dry faster? That would have been a pain in the beanbags to BMF all that window trim 😔 When you did the frame, was that Gloss-Coat or Future (Floor Shine)? Geez! I'm 400 pounds, I'd never fit on that Gurney LOL. Watch You Later, (MODEL CAR)🎭(MAN CAVE)

    • @TheAutisticModeler
      @TheAutisticModeler  6 місяців тому

      Thank you!! Yes the gloss coat was Floor polish. I don’t use a food dehydrator because it’s pretty much warm all year round here in phoenix. Happy Modeling

    Beautiful build! The paint and decals turned out really nice! I just bought the "surf shark" version, and will be building that one as a slammed custom, but i just gotta get me this one too. I've wanted to build a stock '59 ambulance for decades.

  • @hughdavis8769
    @hughdavis8769 6 місяців тому +3

    If you want to do a easier job of the window frames in the back, don't put the fins on until after. Thats what I did on the Ghostbusters version.

    • @hughdavis8769
      @hughdavis8769 6 місяців тому +2

      The main reason I did that was to do Baremetal Foil on the edges of the fins. A huge pain in the butt.

    • @TheAutisticModeler
      @TheAutisticModeler  6 місяців тому +1

      Yeah I noticed that problem. But I was also worried about having a seam there. Good tip thank you. 😊

    The liquid glue used on fins at 5:52 looks to have a hole in the brush cap? 😮 A tip to avoid masking paint leakage is to hit taped area with a bit more white before the red. So stoked this kit is on the way to us, so cool. Will be getting a couple as I plan to use the parts from the Johan Heavenly Hearse on one. And super work not only with build, but videos are nicely done Louie. Good holidays sir.
