  1. Tires and wheels I decided on for my 60s/70s street machine
  2. Base coat for the frame. Dupli-color chrome rattle can
  3. I got the same kit. The '71 Road Runner. Don't have the 71 Satellite. Know anybody that makes an after market hood or where I might find the Satellite kit?
  4. I have a "lifetime" subscription! Hope life isn't this short!
  5. I have carpet in mine. Hate to vacuum the room cause every time I do it sounds like a machine gun going off. Never find anything when I dump it, but I know there was something in it!
  6. Think I'm about done with the interior
  7. Pedals from Parts Box with photo etch overlays. Will mount behind the dash and hang down
  8. Kinda try fit. i think it will look great when i finish. Comments? Suggestions?
  9. Hello! I'm a member of F.A.S.T., a model car club in Ocala Florida. One of our members, Mark Box, sells, trades, buys model car parts. Mark is a super guy, knows all about parts from different kits. If you need a part, want to sell some some parts or trade parts , call Mark. It's Mark's Vintage Plastic Junkyard @ 352-361-6921. Worth the call. Tell him , Terry sent you!
  10. Did the carpet in black embossing powder from Hobby Lobby. Did the mat in Tamiya gloss black
  11. Working on the interior now. Going with black and bare metal foil. Sanded down the molded pedals. Went into parts box and found a set I like. Going with black embossing powder for carpet. Check out pics and tell me what you think
  12. I had a member in a model car club that dells model car parts. He's really seems to know alot about parts in every kit ever made. He has a huge parts inventory. He sells, buys, trades parts. I would like everyone in this forum to know about him and post his contact information , but don't want to break any rules here. Where would be a good place to post this info?
  13. Do you have to have a Laserjet printer to make decals
  14. Ok. the body spent the night in the purple pond. Acrylic clear came off all the way to the base coat, real easy. The lacquer clear coat was harder to get off but a small wire brush convinced it. Funny, the Lacquer silver base coat stayed on. Conclusion? The base coat was on a couple of days before I painted the yellow. The lacquer base coat had a couple of days to "dry", "set" or "gas out" , whatever. ALSO , the silver base coat made the iridescent seem to have a "blue" tint to it. Left the front white. Seems the yellow was a better shade of yellow in the front. Take notes, put in book for future reference
  15. Well , the Lacquer clear over the acrylic paint seems to do alright. No bad reactions to it. Of course the acrylic clear over the acrylic paint did fine. The lacquer clear seems to have more shine. Didn't try sanding and buffing, which I should've done. too late now it's in the "purple pond" Rats!
  16. Naw, going to try to stick with airbrush as much as possible
  17. Interior so far. First time opening doors and trunk , first piping seats, first time trying photo-ectch parts. First time with "Fuzzy-Fur" and first time with embossing powder. Alot of firsts. Gonna get better!
  18. I've been using enamel clear. Been able to and buff out "orange peel", "runs" and "trash" in the clear. Can you do the same with acrylic clears???
