  1. Sharp build, Jim. Nice paintwork and engine detailing.
  2. Fresh off the bench, other than a few small touch-ups to do that I found under the hood. Painted in factory color Grabber Green from a Model Master rattle can, interior is Duplicor Super White. The tire lettering is decals from Chief Joseph, which are excellent quality. The chrome trim on the leading edge of the rear quarter windows are molded way too wide (IMO) so I filed them down for a better look, along with trimming up the glass accordingly. I also trimmed off the mounting tabs and license plate bracket for the front bumper to allow for a better fitment. Other than that, it's box stock with just added plug wires, BMF, and paint detailing. Thanks for looking and any comments you might have.
  3. Nice build JT, looks good in orange. These are great kits, Revell really nailed it with this one.
  4. Very nice Chevelle. The paint looks flawless, subtle and suits the car very well. And, those steelies & caps are the perfect touch.
  5. Killer build, great execution in bringing it back to stock. I'm jealous lol.
  6. Now that is truly outside of the box thinking, I like it! Well done, Rob!
  7. Sharp looking Torino, Shane. Great stance and color.
  8. 61%. Did a lot better than I thought I would.
  9. Beautiful model SFD! Perfect wheel choice, those look sooo good on it.
  10. Love the stance and that paint sure is sweet, nice work.
  11. Killer build Roger, very well done.
  12. What an incredible build, Steve. Beautifully done in every aspect. '61 has always been my favorite year for the big Fords.
  13. Somehow I had missed this one back when you posted it, very sharp pony, Carl! Your paint work always amazes me. I really need to build mine one of these days.
  14. Looks pretty sharp, Mark. That Trans Am looks good too.
  15. Great looking build, Ken. Very nice photos too.
  16. Very sharp, sweet color combo.
  17. Sweet builds John. The Tide Monte Carlo has always been my favorite ride of his.
  18. Excellent work, she is a beauty!
  19. Beautiful build, Tommy. This has to be the best work I've ever seen done to this kit, congrats!
  20. Killer weathering, Chuck. That motor really looks spot-on. Very cool build.
  21. Thanks guys. Black is my favorite color on these trucks, I built it to sorta resemble what I'd want mine to look like if I had the money for a real one.
  22. Very nice! I love the colors and stance.
  23. My 5th completed build of the year. I was looking for something quick and easy to build for a change of pace and this kit fit the bill perfectly. I didn't have any issues whatsoever and it looks really good with a little detailing. The BFG Krawlers are from Fireball Modelworks, as are the wheelbacks. I had to sleeve the ends of the metal axles with short pieces of aluminum tubing to get the wheelbacks to fit better on them (still used some superglue as it still wasn't a tight fit). The wheels are from the Lindberg 97 F150 flareside "offroad" kit, they are only 5 lug but I can deal with that little discrepancy. I also completely removed the large tab and mounting pins for the exhaust tips for a cleaner look. OOB the tips also stuck out too far in my opinion, so I also shortened them up a little, as well as drilling out the tip ends. Paint is Duplicolor Universal Black, polished out with no clearcoat. The only stickers I used were for the instrument panel and the 6.2L emblems on the doors. For the door emblems, I carefully trimmed the clear carrier off, and once I had them on the truck, brushed on a light coat of semi-gloss clear to knock down the high-gloss shine on them a bit. Sorry about some dust and pollen in some of the pics, it's been breezy today and that stuff is blowing all over, it was hard to keep the truck clean.
  24. Very nice. I love that subdued color, the vinyl top looks great too.
  25. Very sharp!
