  15. I seem to think it was a Job well done If i ever have to do a 95 vette again hopefully it will go faster next time, part of the 4 hours was repairing wires to the rear veiw mirror that got cut accidentally It was un avoidable tho due to the fact that the wires were in the original glue...... glad i keep extra things the company dosn't provide in my van Electrical tape put connectors and wire strippers saved my Booty yes i would rather Take 4 hours on one job and get less work done during the day providing exellent quality vs. shortcutting things and rushing through Thats where one seems to make mistakes.......
  16. always liked the DMC always will want to say theres still a company out there with a wearhouse full of delorean parts keeping the dream alive, you can still have a new one made i want to say?? mite be very costly though
  17. got to Replace the front window (windscreen for the blokes out there) on a 95' vette this week pretty exciting and quite challenging at times first time I had done one, hopefully the last lol its a 20 yr old car now Really sweet even though it was not the zr1 just a plain jane still a very cool car the seats seem very thin and appear to look uncomfortable but once you actually sit in the seats not too bad........ the cars next project according to the owner is a paintjob...... after the new front window without blemishes and cracks and issues with it the car practically looked new this will be my 3rd time in life sitting inside a corvette got to drive a z06 body style vette (6 speed) around from front to the back of the shop for glass repairs once, and i once as a little kid got to ride in a mako shark body styled stingray way back when i was a small kid ( my Dad brought the guy to get gas he was stranded on the side of the road)
  18. good start is that made from a casting kit like th e one you can buy at hobby lobbys?? i'm interested in making some of my own smaller parts....
  19. slowly picking away at the interior struggling on options for color to go with light blue exterior..... Tan, white, or black combos of different colors.....
  20. mad resin body is a solid hardtop, I added the t-roof myself its from a mpc kit so it fits flawlessly for the mostpart i have been experimentiong as well with removing "sunroof" roof sections on the revell 1/25 kits (mclaren Orange molded, and mustang turbo cobra also orange molded) other various re issues over the years and grafting in t bars on the revell cars too they turn out pretty well even went as zaney as adding the cheesegrader lamps from mpc kits to the back of a revell kit pretty wicked actually
