  1. Wow that is really nice. I don't mind the big wheels, they do fill up those wheelwells nicely. I'm not always a fan of this look but this one looks good IMO. Beautiful paint and detailing all around.
  2. A pretty average year amount-wise for me. Every year my goal is to finish more than I buy, but it didn't happen this time haha.
  3. Thanks a lot guys.
  4. They are all really clean, well done builds. That 5 window is my favorite.
  5. Very well done, Kevin. That really is a timeless color combo you chose. Going with the Torque Thrusts was a great move too, they always look great on anything from that era. I'm not a big Corvette guy either, but do have a few lurking in the stash.
  6. While it's the only one you finished, my goodness it is fabulous! Just like you always do, Steve. Hope you can get a few more finished in the coming year.
  7. That looks great, Wayne!
  8. This was a pretty straight forward build, mostly out of the box. I did sub in a parts box front axle, as the one in the kit allowed the front end to be way to low to the point the tires wouldn't fit and the chin spoiler was scraping the ground. Otherwise, just some basic wiring, opened up the header ends, and went with the kit decals, even though the hood stripes are wrong. The side decals did break in a couple small spots that I had to touch up, so I'd suggest maybe some decal film or clearcoating them before use. Overall it was a pretty decent build and looks good when finished. Thanks for taking a look and any questions/comments. In a few of the pics, the red got a little washed out from the sun. Oh yeah, yes, I was too lazy to paint the body prop Lol.
  9. Now that is really sharp! Nice save.
  10. The only two I've built so far, a '68 R/T and a '69 Daytona.
  11. I can only see one picture, but man that looks sweet! I'm guessing those are Pegasus wheels/tires? The 70-71 Torino is one of the best looking cars of the era in my opinion.
  12. Wow that's nice. Great detailing and you nailed the ride height.
  13. Beautiful Bee, Randy! That's a stellar trio you have there.
  14. Gorgeous! Kevin, I think I have to agree that this is one of your best builds. The paint is drool worthy, and with the nice clean detailing, makes this a standout. Nice touch raising the back a bit, I did the same thing to my GSX. Just like with your '68 Chargers, seeing this makes me want to dig out the other one still lurking in the stash. Thanks again Kevin Lol!
  15. I agree with everything said above, as this is incredibly realistic looking. Great work, James.
  16. Very interesting project. Great work on moving the wheelwells. I'll be watching for more updates.
  17. What a great subject. Very well done, Phil!
  18. Awesome Charger, Randy! I, too, have been wanting to build a 70 Charger for a long time. I haven't picked one up yet, but when I do I have the feeling it will go directly to near the top of the to do list. Can't wait to see your next one!
  19. X2. I've had my hands on this kit a couple times at a hobby store (I don't know why LOL), but always put it back. Next time I go there I'll have to pick one up, if it's still there anyways. Love how your's turned out, both of them actually.
  20. I love it. Whenever I get around to building another of these this is the scheme I was planning on going with. Thanks for giving me a little more inspiration now.
  21. Great looking Charger, Eric.
  22. Nice re-do Kevin. I love your choice of steelies & caps, never can go wrong with that look.
  23. That is one stunning collection! Truly great work, and thanks for the history lesson.
  24. Thanks for the comments guys. While it is a pretty basic kit, it does buld into a decent looker. I do have another one in the pile to build someday.
