Clay Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Awesome job so far, love the stance. What color are you planning? However, it might deter some of the members to look at this with it being an attachment. Check out my topic on posting pictures in the Tips, Tricks, and Ideas section.

However, it might deter some of the members to look at this with it being an attachment. Check out my topic on posting pictures in the Tips, Tricks, and Ideas section. I have gone to tamiya spray can cause it lays out so nice and the color choice is lime green on the bottom and gun metal on top. the split may not be exact to the pencil marks but probably close, sprayed the green tonight. I will go check your tips on pics, but it took me two days to get these on from my pics on the computer, me not so bright on them there computer boxes. hahahahahaha.....

Clay Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 I havent used the Tamyia Sprays yet, but i have used the Model Master Laquer and it works GREAT Dont worry about not being good with computers, the one I made that for is not good very good with computers either. So give it a try and hopefully it wont take longer than a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon7665 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Very Nice looking build What's up with the FURD motor in a Chebby though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumnuts Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 Very Nice looking build What's up with the FURD motor in a Chebby though you caught me on that one. chayy manifold was to tall (and ugly) and my parts bin is not so hot, so after trimming and fitting to get the hood closed thats what i had and what fit, I did just pick up the 40 ford kit that has a LS1 that might go in if it dosen't go in the ford.

george 53 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I'm kinda confused(naturaly)What is it that you don't like? The color? It 's smooth, clean, gots a nice shine to it. The stance is PERFECT! Wheel choice is right on too! I like it! DON'T stick a fork in it, BUT you COULD call this one done! And very WELL done at that!!!
