  1. That came out really nice. It's good seeing stock builds. David G.
  2. I found this one at the Desert Scale Classic in Phoenix last year. It had the punch-outs for the rear quarter fuel dump, hood scoop and roll cage so I think it was designed to accommodate both styles. It actually built-up to be a pretty nice model when done. Thanks, David G.
  3. Thanks Peter. BTW, if the New Zealander is looking for Old Zealand, he's nearly there; it's farther north near Denmark. David G.
  4. Thanks Craig, I do tend to like the unusual ones. Thanks Carl, I'm glad you like it. Thank you Chris. David G.
  5. Thanks David, it was a challenge but I think I kicked it. Thanks Donald Thanks Bruce. When researching this build, I did find a number of them on line that looked to have been originally painted in a dark red. The shade of red I picked for this one did not turn out as dark as I had planned. I think it does too, thanks Mike. Thank you Matija. David G.
  6. Whatever you want to call it, it looks great! David G.
  7. Thanks Marty. Thank you Erik. Yup, gotta love Phoenix in January. Thank you Dave. There do seem to be a lot of people on this forum from AZ. Thanks Jim, and it's.... SHINY! David G.
  8. Thanks Dan. Thank You Wayne I agree Steve. Hot rods are nice, but I like stock every bit as much and maybe just a little more. Thanks Charlie, it was a bit tricky but I'm pretty happy with the way they came out. Thanks Tulio, it's nice to have those efforts recognized. Thanks Bo. I wanted to build a streamliner and I was deciding between this one and Revell's 1948 Ford Police Coupe and I wanted an relatively easy "knock together" kit. I was a little surprised by the way AMT chose to engineer the front panel assembly. Had I known, I probably would have chosen the Ford. I believe I'll pick up one eventually, but I would have grabbed it first that day. Thanks again! David G.
  9. Finished this one up. It now in the Under Glass section. Thanks for following! David G.
  10. My first build of 2017. The biggest hurdle with this kit was blending in the front panel insert. I think it came out pretty good. License Plates and Mirrors! I'm very pleased with the paint and foil work on this one. The ride height may be a little high, but it's not too bad. The original third brake light! This was a fun kit to build and it makes a good looking model when it's finished. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.
  11. Very clever, thanks for sharing this. David G.
  12. Nicely done, excellent photos, love the mud splatters! David G.
  13. Beautifully done! David G.
  14. Thanks John. I hope to get some time to work on it this weekend. Hmmm I may get this one finished soon. David G.
  15. I was hoping that this was going to be my last build of 2016, bit it looks like it will be my first one for 2017. I thought the foil was done but I forgot about the beak. While I was doing that part, I went back and reapplied the foil in some of the less than optimal areas. I also got the headlight and front bumper assemblies fitted. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.
  16. Thanks John, I actually went back and reapplied the foil in a few areas. I think it was a bit of an improvement. David G.
