1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX

03 October 2010 - 10:53 AM

Here is the Revell 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX.  I'm not really into tuners alot but I thought I would give this one a try.  I have added a body kit to it with some sheet plastic.  I need to buy some putty to make the fender flares look good.  I am aiming for a DTM/GT3/drifter look for it, but we'll see how it comes out.  I will be keeping the turbocharged 4 cyl.  in it.  I haven't found any wheels I like yet for it but I am keeping an eye out for something.      Any way here are some pics:

34' Ford Pick-up

Here is the Lindberg 1934 Ford Pickup.  It is most likely one of my favorite kits.  I channeled it, put the engine from a 2008 Mustang GT500KR, and added wheels from an old nascar kit to it.  Here are some pics:

69' Nova Pro Touring

24 August 2010 - 11:50 AM

Well I am going to start another model even though I haven't finished the other 3 or 4 builds that I've got going on :D :lol: Its the Revell 1969 Nova SS kit and so far it looks pretty good. It has been lowered and has a nascar rear end out of an old Nascar kit. The colors that I'm thinking of are either, white with black wheels, or silver with black wheels. Regardless it will have black wheels. Well enough talking here are the pics:

The rear will be a little more higher but I need to paint the leaf springs first.

Fender Flares

15 August 2010 - 03:18 PM

I was thinking about making some fender flares for a couple of my builds, but I don't know where to start. The look I'm going for is a old school Scca look for either my 69' Nova or my 70 Camaro. Low, modern wheels , upgraded suspension...ect.

Can anyone offer some advise on making them? Anything will be greatly appreciated :)

Paint Job Gone Wrong

21 July 2010 - 09:22 AM

I have been working on my 2009 Challenger for a little while now, and I went to paint it gloss black yesterday and it "orange peeled" on the hood. I painted Lowe's flat black first (couple weeks ago) on it just fine, but when I went to paint it gloss black it "orange peeled".  I also painted the front and rear clips , but they came out good, the hood was the only piece that did that.  I didn't paint the body in fear that it would do that too.       I still want to paint it all gloss black , but do I need to sand the hood or the front and rear clips too ???

Any help will be greatly appreciated !!!   :)    

Thanks
