love the stepside chevy truck i always loved them growing up.and do they still make them? i need to find one for a project a friend i know built some years back.and the bronco is awsome i miss mine i had a few models of them and a real one but rolled as i was a wild teenager if you know if they make any of them yet?man its people like you and the people on here that inspire me to get stuff done i live to far away to join a club in my area.

looking for help with how to make side pipes.i want to make the kind that are on the shelby cobra i am building a 1965 mustang convertable.i am useing 17 or 18 in style crages with spinners and the car is in ivory i want to make side pipes tat look like the black powder coated ones on the cobra.

i found one of my older kits at someones house that had some off my stuff from a previous divorce.it is a 1976 chevy nova with the snorkel hood.i must of painted it yellow at some time going to do it white with orange ralley stripes and have a low rise duel intake and edelbrock valve covers and air cleaners.aside of that black inside.and a local auction a guy sells model and parts from 50 cents to 30 bucks i got old school decals for the windows to make it look like it was a old school cruiser.money not good and christmas upon us i found some more of my stuff i had stored so i will be getting back to getting old projects done and hopefully the new year is better and i can get one of the olds cutles or a new challenger.aside of that models is what keeps sane and sober and straight that and my girlfriend and kid.but will post some photos tommrow of it as i start it then always busy with the kids.lol.i finaly found the rest of my old stash of kits i had a few years ago just never got to them.

im looking for any good ideas or suggestions with a 70 mustang.my computer and internet went down for a week.but looking for ideas trying to do a elonor style one.but havent had time either dieabetis i got sick with and my son now seen his mother and is regressing so if i dont get on till another day to much in one life.

it sa 90s promo i got for my 2 year old he broke it so i decided to redo it i like i use to do to 1:1 cars and trucks i added new wheels and took the sticker off the back of it and put up on the top to look like they use to do in the 90s and still do i think.it was fun and the first thing i built in years.ill be back with more i have some that need to get done and a friend gave me some for helping him out with his computer i fixed it and felt like i won the lottery.it helps with controling my MS useing fingers so they dont die.one of my toes is dieing.all you on here are my inspiration.i look at what all of you do then i start.so big thanks to everyone on here i thought my builds werent good enough.i hope you all like this truck.

First thing a bigf thank you to all im haveing trouable posting pictures but i got my first build done in years and all of you seeing what you all make were my inspiration.second thing a site call the hub garage is a great site for some of you that dont know of it.it gave me some good ideas just thought i would pass this on my son and i build and he loves to look on there before h elooks for his project or redo one that he has already.money being tight h ean di cut back when he comes up on weekends but he still enjoys it.i think the site is{www.hubgarage.com}and we love it i have a account there.you dont need to be a member but it is worth checking out its anything with wheels from around the world.and everyone thank you for all your help.

nice truck love the trucks.

i see various kits of the challenger srt8 and it seams none have the engine in it.any help with who or how do i go about finding one.i want to do a version of one that is in my area and need the motor and i have to find a newer style procharger for it.and the newer wheels they have the new torgue thrusts or look like them on it to.

cool website there are no clubs close to me but you have a great page and nice to use not like some that i been on in the years.grat work on everything.

cant wait to see it now i like the old way movies were done.now its computer special effects thanks for the review me and my oldest son are going to see it now.all my old heros and pile of stuff being blown up cant wait.

my girlfriend and i had a little boy 6lbs 10oz she didnt even know she was pregnent until three weeks ago she never showed but wont be doing anything for a little while but unfortunely our son had some complacations and had to be flown a to a hospital 2 hours away but we are getting ready to go there.his lung had fluid and had to have a tube put in but as of 5 oclock tonight he had it removed and is breatheing great.i now have three boys rangeing from 12.2 and newborn and a doughter 8.but it truely a miracle seeing childbirth.sorry but big proud dad here.

remind me of the one i use to own but it was in primer but same highth and style amazing work.

nice to meet ya hope to see your builds.i have a few to button up.but had a M.S. flare up so its not happeing to this storm is over in my body.but great to meet you.

would be interested in all of them especialy the can am been my favorite car since i can remember.please if you make it or here there being made please let us all know.i miss the 70s cars i was kid and it was a good time for cars the one i can remember.

try harbor frieght { www.harborfreight.com }they have them at about the best price i have seen not sure how good they are but as far as cost.i worked with a mill 17 years ago we use to make our own custom wheels years ago for models.my friend was 12 years older than me but we built models together he showed me how to use one he took me under his wing when i was ten and shown me everything i helped build a model and the 1:1 version of his 70 elamino ss had a 671 blower on a 427 all aluminum chevy block it was cool but if you get going and start selling parts or ideas hit me up i can be reached at michaeljmurphy1973@yahoo.com my computer doesnt always work.but would love to see someone make some wheels and stuff at a relative decent price or i could afford sorry single dad.

honestly i have use blue rtv silocone years ago and epoxy and other fillers.but at hobby town they have a resin kit with a mold makeing kit with it i dont know how good or bad it is.i had good luck with the sealer other than it takes a day or two to set up and be plyable .my instructer at enginering school showed me this trick becouse i never had much money so it was all about cost and i made a few good molds from the rtv sealer.and they were pretty detailed its been 6 years since i did that i use it to make car molds for a display of a garage i built.if you use epoxy please light sand and primer or the paint will just slide off or not take at well.hope this helps in some way.i heard of people useing plater molds already but not sure how maybe try youtube i find ideas off of there becouse there are step by step videos on there of everything.hope something in this was helpful or at least send in you the direction you want to be.

i belive its {horcepowertv.com}.they are building a falcon doing that and car craft i beleive they had a article on there site about building one.but muscle car tv comes on sunday morning around 11 or 11:30 on the east coast.it son spike.and they have a site you can watch the episodes.other than maybe check out the nhra site they may have links.i have a friend that built one but not sure if he has pictures ill check with him.his is a 63 nova altered with a straight axle up front.i know if you go to nostalgic drag raceing website they have pics and info for that.hope this helps in some way.

hello everyone and thank you to anyone that reads this.im a single dad i do have a girlfriend that helps support my youngest son and haveing another one on the way plus i have to older kids that i pay 600 a month for.i love the hobby but im always looking for cheap ways to make more detail that being said.i look around the garage in front of me for wires laying around for plug wires and stuff to make fuel lines and brake lines.i dont use the foil becouse some months i am lucky till the bills and food is done im out of money so anyone with cheap ways to detail a car.i buy my kits from a guy that gives me a price breakmost of the time i spend no more than 12 dollars for a kit.and he sells wheels and stuff from the ones he built and i get the parts cheap or sometimes free and the dicals.but anyone with detail help thats cheap.im going splurge and a gibson engine for my annaversy.

i still use krylon i love the the yellow,pumpkin orange,true blue and burgandy i was going to get a air brush but cost is stopping me my ex doesnt pay for her son and its me and my girl paying for it all.

beutiful build i had to get my girl to check this one out and my son will see it tommrow.you do amazing things i couldnt believe it was a model i thought it was the real deal. sorry if i am blown away i couldnt believe how detailed it is i hope to do that one day.
