TimKustom Model Cars
США
Добавлен 9 авг 2006
Welcome to TimKustom Model Cars. This channel will showcase the models I’ve built, and collected. You can also find kit reviews, shows and contests and tips and techniques. The models I build are not traditional “Kustom” cars, but I strive to make them Kustom in my own way. I hope you enjoy and subscribe because I have all kinds of model car stories to tell.
New, rare, and weird models. You have to check these out!
It's been a while since I've done a stash add update and I have found some interesting kits recently. One of them I have been looking for many, many years. Wonder if you seen some of these before.

It is back to the bench after a couple of great shows. On this 1967 GTO, there are still a few more details to finalize. Then I put it in the paint booth to add some color. You have to see what happened next! #howto #modelcars #gto #revell #tamiya #scalemodel #automobile #pontiac #prostreet #scratchbuild

After checking out most of the builds on the tables, I wandered the vendor area. Did I find any good deals? Maybe. Did I find the top ten award winners? For sure. After the show, it was time to celebrate with a Crown Challenge, but you build a model at your own risk! #atlanta #acme #modelcars #modelshow #scalemodel #scalemodels

I've turned a Porsche 914 into this crazy wheel standing exhibition car for the Second Annual Porsche Group Build. I named it after another famous Porsche race car and when you hit the throttle it should make you say AHOY! See the finishing techniques that went into this model, but is it really finished?

It's been a while since I've done a stash add video, not much has come in lately because I've probably got too much model car junk. Nope. Nobody should ever say that. Some of this isn't model car junk. It's weird though!

I met up with Sandy Konigsberg, Charles Libby, Mike Alvarez and Andy Shapiro at the recent Flight 19 Model Fest. They were kind enough to sit down with me and share some of the details of a model they had brought to the show.

I built Der Beetle Bus! Der what else does it do?
Did enjoy that ‘56 Thunderbird build video… 😂 never seen the El Camino kit before, I didn’t take much notice of 1/32 kits back in the days but I definitely don’t remember it. Does that Datsun Z include left and right hand dashboards?
That's tight. Really well built.
So the Custom Chevy Pickup is a fantasy ElCamino with a Nova front end? That's a weird add for sure.
Great kits Tim! Is the model craze much more active in Japan? I love the elcamino kit😮
Real neat and cool story.
Cool kits.
Fun to see the shelf from your younger years brings back memories to me. The light blue 1955 Chevy Snap Tite from Monogram was my first ever build. Remember I picked it up in a store when me and my mother and father was on summer vacation here in Norway. My then four year older brother got a 1956 Chevy great memories ❤️
The '55 is kind of an iconic kit. I now have that whole row to build. Should be fun. Thanks for watching!
Cool ads. Just finished up the vette myself.
I'll check it out! Thanks for watching.
Nice adds. I have t g e Corvette and the Datsun 240Z. Keep building.
Good luck on your kits. Thanks for watching.
Awesome stuff. Very interesting thanks for sharing.
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed them.
Very cool adds! Love the Chevy snap kit! 👍🏻👍🏻
That one has been a quest. On to the next one!
Very cool kits
Glad you enjoyed them!
Hey Tim thanks for showing that snap model of the custom Chevy pickup I've been working on something like that and the back window on that one gave me a good idea so thanks for showing this one buddy later Glen
You bet, Glen. I'm glad you found something useful in the video. Thanks for watching.
Awesome stuff Tim! LLAP 🖖
Glad you enjoyed them. Thanks for watching.
Those are some really cool kits. 👍🏻
Thanks for checking them out!
“What are 3 words you get described as, at Model Shows” Carnac 3:36 How many Tamiya Nissan Fairlady 240z kits have you seen exactly?
LOL. I see what you did there. Thanks for watching!
Interesting stuff
Glad you enjoyed it!
Cool stuff! Great stash adds!
Thanks for checking them out!
I built as kid back then to don't remember doing that El Camino but I definitely remember that blue 55 Chevy
I think we all build that blue '55 Chevy. I have a sealed original of that one as well. It will get built too. Thanks for watching!
new subscriber, interesting concept with a lot of work, congratulations
Thanks for the sub! Glad you enjoyed watching it.
That is a really really sharp build. I would have no issues categorizing this as a ret-rod, Bravo
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Old Doc was one of my inspirations for starting my channel over 12 years ago!!! Beautiful build brother Tim.
Thanks! Cranky is a special one. LOL. Glad you enjoyed it.
I feel like such an under achiever after watching your videos! BUT I'm still having fun! AWESOME progress!
I don't think you are an under achiever. You are having fun! Thanks for watching.
Very cool! It’s more of a show rod to me than rat. The original rat rod were just primer and rust because the builder didn’t paint it. It was built for a coupe of other fords. You can find the video on it on RUclips. It’s been painted to look like a salt flats car now and the owner who made em famous still has it 60 years later.
I still believe it has to do with an attitude. Vette's don't rust. :)
I absolutely love it Tim ❤😊
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Very cool build Tim!!!!!
Thanks!
@@timkustom 🤜🤛
Looks great mate👍
Thanks 👍
Awesome job 👍🏿
Thanks 👍
Good idea...nice work
Thanks a lot. Glad you enjoyed it.
Tim, first of all GENIUS! Lovin' where this is going. Second, where might I ask do you get your solder at and what gage do you use for headers?
TBH, I can't remember where I got it, as it was many years ago. Solder has gotten stupid expensive in the last few years. I searched by size and when I found it, I got a few spools so I wouldn't run out. Kinda like all the model stuff around here. LOL. Thanks for watching.
@@timkustom, you still didn't tell me what gage you use for headers? Thanks!
The headers are 3D printed. The exhaust is 2.4mm solder by Forney. I don't deal with gauge, I search it by millimeter. HTH.
@@timkustom, thank you very much man!
i often wonder why someone doesn't create an auction program like Barrett Jackson or Mecum just for built models??? i know i have over a hundred some ,all the way back to my youth in the early 60's . hate to see them end up at some thrift store or landfill, know what i mean..
That is interesting. I see many auctions on social media groups for kits, but not really for finished builds. I think most significant models do have plan for a next generation. Thanks for watching.
Wow!! This is crazy cool!!!!!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
And after you have you have destroyed all 1930s Fords, you are now pong after the C-One Corvette. Stop this, only eople that don't know shit about cars thinks this id cool. No, it is a hatted abomination.
I’m not surprised to find that I just love what you created .. I’m sure you had a lot of builders wondering just what you were building from those progress pictures !! lol
Yep, I kept it vague partly because I didn't know if I could pull it off in the 3 month timeframe. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching.
This is a really cool build! Thanks for sharing the process!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
real cool I did one to but I used the GTO seat tub what I did was sanded the tunnel on the GTO the cut most off on the pro street chassie it fit very well thanks again for the great build and how to do . I have a ? I want GMC Jimmy into 2 wheel drive instead of 4 wheel drive any tips ,
Cool you are doing this project as well. I would look for a 2wd GM truck chassis that is the same era of what you are building to start, or get some 2mm X 3mm evergreen strip and make your own! Good luck with your project and thanks for watching!
@@timkustom thanks I realy appreciate your help take care,
Wonderfully creative build.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
That is some nice craftsmanship
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
This build is very aesthetically pleasing to look at. Great proportions. I really like how the front tires are forward of the original wheel base.
Keen eye! There are some interesting lines happening around the front wheels. It helps define the style of the car. Thanks for watching!
Thats awesome i really like your work.
Thanks so much. Glad you enjoy it.
WOW! That is one hell of a build! GREAT inspiration for sure!! Thanks for sharing and glad you got to fix it up/make repairs on it again. I have yet to do any major body modifications to a vehicle. But I do have a kit in mind where I plan on doing a pretty sever chop to "dip my toe" in the modification builds.
Glad you liked it. Cutting these up can be very satisfying and I wish you well on your project. Thanks for watching!
Nice Vette. It is wild what you come up with each time. Keep on building some wild creations.
Thanks, this one was one of the more radical ones, but still have a many more to create. Thanks for watching.
Awesome Rat Vette Tim!! Amazing work! have a great weekend
So you think it's a rat? Thanks for watching!
@timkustom Yes I do it's fiberglass it doesn't rust. Looks awesome 👍🏻
What a work of art. Love the stories as well
Thanks! The stories help make them even more unique. Glad you enjoyed it.
Very cool build you definitely do nice work.
Thanks, glad you like it!
