  1. thanks guys! this was supposed to be a quick build....goin on a year now lol! Brian, i used sophisticated finishes to paint the manifolds and the waterpump, its a two part system that actually rusts
  2. so obviously i didnt finish by the new year lol, but were nearing the finish line now. i still have some tidying up to do underthe hood and so forth, but heres a few pics of the progress.
  3. just received my end of the trade from Mark Yoder aka K100, flawless transaction, highly recommended!
  4. isnt this kit 1/25? the reason i ask is i think it would make a cool lowboy load....
  5. ok Andrew, he wanted to know what email u used to contact him, he said use jlrahmo@aol.com he said he would be interested in the spokes but he already casts the others. hope this helps!
  6. ok, i just sent him the pics, should here from him soon.
  7. very nice Andrew! i like the spokes, Jamie is on Facebook if u have one, if not i can send him these pics
  8. man! you do some amazing work, i cant wait to see it finished!
  9. thanks guys, i havent applied the decals yet, just wanna make sure i can remove them if i dont like it
  10. will micro sol remove decals without screwing up the paint?
  11. Back atcha Kevin! look forward to trading again sometime!
  12. I'll be there! great show last year!
  13. Thanks for the compliments fellas! I'll finish this thing one day maybe lol! Michael, i use telephone wire mostly, it isnt very pliable, u just have to work it a little before you mount it, then work it very carefully afterwards.
  14. I like to glue my fingers together! Lol
  15. Ok, thanks man, i was worried about starting with too low of a grit cuz i didn't want to burn through. I shot two heavy coats of clear but that may not be enough. I usually build dirty old trucks so this is new to me.
  16. Thanks fellas, thats what i was thinking, what grit do u guys go up too, i started at 3200...
  17. Has anyone ever used a dremel to buff clear and what were your results? Also where did u buy the buffing bits?
  18. Its been a while because progress has been slow, but the rear suspension and axle setup is FINALLY finished! Anyway here's some pics.
  19. Thats awesome Brian! Mind if i use those images?
  20. now one thing I forgot to mention, i used aftermarket tires because the stock ones still didn't fit. You truck is looking good though, cant wait to see it finished!
  21. i had thesame problem with the wheels and tires but fixed the problem las week....just haven't posted yet. On the steers all you need to do is and down the area where the wheel halves fit into each other onboth sides. That is the ouer lipon the inside of the chrome side and th recessed area it fits into on the other side. Ill pot before pics tomorrow ifi remember, but here are sme after pics
  22. That KW looks good but those boys dont believe in masking do they??
