  1. awsome and when you said these are the coilovers i made i went like no way lol and then read the i wish lol looking great , if it where up to me i'd say dont do any decals and paint it like a perioud correct coolo color and make it a jdm-ish road racer version
  2. thnx a lot guys and the pictures are made with my samsung gsm / cell phone , shows these days you dont really need a fancy camera .. sure with a nice cam you can really make awsome pics but for like build threads .......

  7. well i wanted something unique and a while back i found this really old pic of a racer drilled full of speedholes .. i wanted to use that theme but in a more fancy way so it will become like a barely street legal drag / racer . paint is going to be bare metal , sound wierd paint > bare metal but hey we use styrene lol using real alunimium zink spray , its paint with metal parts in it back in the day pic i found the wheels , rims are out of a amt corvette gasser kit with some tyres from the partsbox and the rear tyres of this kit speedhole time , trying to keep it normal and not do to much holes folowed the rear side line
  8. whow thnx .. well tbh i never have been around real hotrods much , really sad but true. i'm turning 38 this year and just one year ago i saw a perioud correct hotrod for the first time on a show in belgium.. there are shows here and i'm planning to visit some this year ... so on my models i'm just doing something i feel is right , i'm not a real hotrod expert in any way , so when you say it makes you think of the 1:1 back in the ... that makes me smile , doing something right i guess i believe its like when you really have a passion for something and you really look into it you can self teach and become self -made also and i keep saying this i learned a lot in the short perioud i have been here by seeing others at work , just proves how inspiring good build threads with good pictures can be and about the english > back in the day @ school i always got a 9 or 10 for english and never learned for exams it also helps that i have been on english based forums for a few years.. maybe sometimes my sentences are a bit weird and on some things i dont know the right word but i can manage i guess anyway thnx for the kind words

  12. just started a new kit after finishing the other 32 ford . spend a hour and got a nice start , just started and not sure what its going to be exactly .. a bit rougher and very very low the boxart flattened the whole front of the cab there was a molded strip for the front windscreen drilled some speedholes , fixed the panlels to the inside of teh body and flattened the edges kind of matches the dash channeled body and the axle will be higher up > low low low fitting bucket seats instead of a bench

  16. you could make some trips of styrene along the upper line of the door , curving to the back and make like a canvas roof that could be rolled up and down ? make like some cross members in between for strenght ?? but i know what you mean about the thickness , you would not believe how thick the roof on mine was on the rounded shapes of the roof , at one point i thought what did i got myself into your doorwith / thickess does look thicker then mine though
