WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 1

   Thanks to this site, in the past months I met a lot of new friends with the same passion: one of these is Luca Ripamonti, the guy who has created a 1/64th General Lee starting from the '69 Dodge Charger produced by Hot Wheels. When I saw his little General Lee it was love at first sight, so he decided to create a new one only for me. Some days ago, he bought a new Charger and in the next weekend he will start to work on it, removing the current paint and adding the best color on the world... the orange!!
   When I will receive new pictures, I will publish his progress!

WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 2

   Luca sent me some new pictures about his "work in progress": now the '69 Dodge Charger has been unpainted and in the next days the original paint will be substitute with an orange paint. I can't wait to see it finished!!!

WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 3

   This W.I.P. proceeds very fast: this morning, Luca sent me other pictures about the '69 Dodge Charger he is preparing for me. In these pictures, the Charger has been covered with a grey primer and then it appears with its (final) orange uniform. The General Lee takes shape!!! The paint job is awesome and there are no faults on the surface: great job, Luca!!

WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 4

   Every day, an update... Today, Luca sent me some new pictures about my '69 Dodge Charger: as you cane see, he mounted (just for test) the shell on the chassis and then he added some details on the front grill and the rear panel (he used India ink for the black parts and nail varnish for the rear red lights). In the next days, he will change the wheels, he will add the decals and then he will detail the engine bay. We look forward to see the progress!!!

WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 5

   As promised, yesterday Luca modified my '69 Dodge Charger adding new wheels. As you can see from the pictures, he took the wheels from a Porsche Cayman produced by Hot Wheels and then he organized a little meeting with his General Lee. In the future days, he will works on the interior and then he will apply the decals on the shell.
   I'm very satisfied about the result obtained by Luca: with a good paint job and a lot of details he changed face to this model!!!

WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 6

   New week, new updates!! Luca sent me some new pictures about the 1/64th General Lee. He added a lot of details to this model: lateral lights, front and rear valance and an awesome push bar!! Moreover, he painted the chassis with mat black paint, leaving the exhaust pipe chromed.
   However, since tomorrow I will start to show you some of my last purchases in 1:18th scale (now I have a new supplier), so stay tuned!!!

WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 7

   Today, a lot of news on the 1/64th General Lee, the next little mascotte of this site!!! As you can see from the pictures, Luca added some details on the front and rear valance, two new license plate, but especially he started to work on the internal roll bar, created using a paper clip. An awesome job, especially considering the scale!!!

WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 8

   The little General Lee grows up: Luca sent me some pictures about his progress and I can only say he is doing a good job!! During the weekend he worked on the interior and on the engine. Moreover, he added chromed profiles on the shell, on the glass surfaces and then he created 2 new antennas. As you can see this General Lee looks like the LEE1!!

Posted by: Fabiano on Mon 11/17/2008 18:0701


WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 9

   The little General Lee is almost finished: yesterday, Luca tryed to assemble the shell with the chassis and the result is great!!! This diecast model has a lot of details, especially considering it's only in 1/64th scale: look the chromed profiles, the engine bay, the full roll cage and the tiny antennas!!! In the last pictures you can see the General Lee with its final uniform, with the confederated flag on the roof, the "01" numbers on the doors and the crossed flags in front of the trunk (remember, it's the LEE1!!).
   In the next days, Luca will finish to assemble it and then he will send it to me. I'm very satisfied about the final appereance of this model.

WIP 1/64th General Lee: Step 10 - THE END

   After 10 "episodes", the General Lee has been completed by Luca. Yesterday, he painted the interior of the chassis and then I created a special box for the shipping, using a plastic case and a lot of polystyrene. During the next weekend I think I will receive it and the next week I will realize a complete photo session for this awesome diecast models.
   Congratulations to Luca for his craft and I will be always glad to host his next W.I.P. on this site. Thank you very much for this gift, Luca!!

The little General Lee is travelling to my house

   Tomorrow, the little LEE1 will arrive at my house, but today I received a lot of new pictures from Luca: he organized a little meeting with his first General Lee. As you can seen from the pictures, the graphics of his Lee have lost colour, so in the next days he will substitute all the decals. Enjoy with all these pictures and have a nice weekend!!!
