  1. Better this way (except for the doors)... you can make your own groove mike
  2. Well, that's a pretty exhaustive list but, yes, you did miss a couple of things ... Having a 1:1 driver of my own gives me an easy reference but even that didn't make me want to go into histrionics over corrections I may need to do. Buildups of both test shots and the final kits prove this can be turned out as a striking model. I understand there's room for legitimate discussion of pros and cons here but I hope this can be done without all the shrieking, caterwauling and drama queening that has characterized threads of this nature... or do we roll our eyes and say 'good luck with that' mike
  3. Or more accurately, why he thinks it's unbuildable... mike
  4. http://driving.ca/chevrolet/auto-news/entertainment/collector-classics-1970-el-camino-ss mike
  5. I was hoping post #203 would be a hint for reference material.... mike
  6. hmmmm.... seems the pot thinks the kettle is very black.... mike
  7. The '68 and '69 grills are identical in scale... only the paint patterns would be different mike
  8. I think he's talking about the XLT woodgrain tailgate insert. Makes sense to shave the letters before applying the woodgrain decal. Be interesting to see if a guy could foil the letters and shave them off in one piece. They could then be applied on top of the decal... Hopefully someone will come up with a photoetch set for these mike
  9. The rear chrome sport bumper from the amt F350 kits would most likely work too. I don't know about a 'steadier hand', Chuck, but here's how my grill turned out... ... and here's the F100 hubcaps you need... got mine (three sets!) from Don and Kevin has them too apparently mike
  10. Happy Father's Day to my dad and all of you experiencing the joys and heartaches that go with it... mike
  11. That robot in the previous pic reminded me of this one I saw at the '96 Detroit auto show... mike
  12. possibly modelhaus.... ...yep, definitely Modelhaus just got some today... mike
  13. ... for a few things There's close to a dozen details that distinguish these from the rest of its '68 - '72 brothers. Stuff like door handles, trim, heater controls, wiring, etc mike
  14. The '78/'79 parts might work, but they wouldn't be accurate for a newer F150. The front axle design was different from '80-'96. mike
  15. Third times the charm That paint really adds appeal; now you've got me looking for one... Great work, Ray mike
  16. Just to whet your appetites... mike
  17. Very nice work, Bill mike
  18. Probably a historical rebuild, meant to be as it was, um, 'back in the day' mike
  19. neither had I... Dad will be happy to get those cool Russian stamps for his collection mike
  20. A couple of projects... I later finished the crown vic and gave it to a friend in the local constabulary. The Camaro (ZR1 wheels/engine) was built to this point about ten years ago, still needs finishing...
  21. I'm just hoping for a grill and taillites to build my old '66 belvedere hardtop mike
  22. Nice work, guys. This guy has some good ideas, too.... Michael Paul Smith https://www.flickr.com/photos/24796741@N05/sets/72157604247242338/ mike
  23. That's the most important thing... Beautiful work, Dominik ! mike
