  1. stunning !
  2. awsome details !!
  3. nice !
  4. hmmm nice !!
  5. thnx thnx ! didnt have much time to build ..but managed to add some detail to the engine made it not so perfect on purpose and added some ild washes .. needs to look like its car thats driven hard , not a show boat .. so tried to mildly make it look a bit used without making it filthy colors look flat but the intake manifold and gear box are dark polished metal coat .. irl that has a real metal look ans shine that doesnt show on the pictures... added a fuelline , throttle cable > first pic its silver on the others still dark its so thin it didnt show dark so i made it silver ... also made a tiny spring for the throttle on the carb (from superthing brass champaign bottle wire) fuel throttle cable not on the pic yet >
  6. last issues with fitment .. finetuning all the parts so all fits ..
  7. thnx guys .. yes detail wise the kit is fine just the casting and fitment isnt that great .. but i usually dont mind the extra work i like it not so easy
  8. man seriously ....i love this patina !!!! just looks stunning <3
  9. and some metal coat > the dark version .. needs more rubbing for more shine
  10. thnx tony !! now i had so modify some hight issues on the engine parts change a corner of the tub/firewall to clear one header .... already cleaned the inside of the airbox and did that matte black together with the top edge and some gold-ish on the carb underside and firewall painted silver .. will be drybrushed later to mimick a more metal look
  11. love that !!!!!!!
  12. thnx ! dryfit ...needs some tweeking on steering wheel hight
  13. thnx ! whell jus went on painted the radio black and made the knobs silver ....seats are matt now in stead of semi gloss .....really coming together .. now i love the wooden steering wheel and gear knob .. lifts the whole interiour and makes it less monotone .. those are not done needs someclear coat layers and the shifter shaft needs cleaning .. color idea is to go matt grey on the body with matte black wheels and make it a bit stealth and modern looking .. but with a classis twist
  14. thnx tony !! the gages are in .. pfft what a job first glued clear sheet on the back ..tryling to avoid glue marks where the gages sit .. then got he decals off and with a drop of water put them backwards against the clear sheer .. tryling to keep them all centered. after that put black cloth electrical tape over it so the gages where fixed ans gaps closed .. painted the steering column chrome .. at this point its dry brushed to match the aluminum more s its less shiney now started a base of kaky brown on the gear knob and steering wheel going to mimick wood and hope it matches with the alu ..otherwide i have to do something else basecoat > dryfit
  15. whouw that looks great and no problem ..i dont mind maybe i could try some clear over the thin clear sheet .. interiourtub is painted black .. my firs idea was creme leather ...but now with the alu black was the only option .. now i'm not sure what to do with the steering wheel i wanted to make it wood but i doubt if that looks good on the black and alu .. and just black is way to simple very carefull dryfit ... paint is dry but not hard .. inside of the doors will be alu also later on cut matt's
  16. thnx carl !! while some stuff is painted and is drying .. drilled open the stock exhausts .. i will try to make something different but maybe if ha fails i will use these made the headers and attached them to the heads its cold outside and i spray in the shed or outside .. luckely still managed to get a even second coat of primer on it .. i always use rattle cans btw ..
  17. yuuuup that works > way cool!
  18. made a top plate on the tunnel , also real alu ... back behind the seats i also made a plate of alu .. all needs lots of work but the start is there
  19. cleaned it all up a bit , added a push button steering wheel is loose / not attached to the column so not in the center
