    71 GTX

    FAIL! ?

    71 GTX

    That is one mean GTX. ?
  3. Another great trade with fordf-100. Thanks again Phil.
  4. Love the orange one. The wheels and spoiler really set it off. I think the silver wheels on the cop car take away from it though. The black wheels made it look like it was all business.
  5. I will be following along for sure. I have a number of 1/16, and like Modlbldr said, high on my list is 57 t-bird gasser.
  6. While glue and putty dry for the night, I decided to try and create something out of this.
  7. WoW ! Everybody did an amazing job. Kudos to everyone that crossed the finish line.
  8. Last minute try at the Challenger. Started more putty work on the hood, and proceeded to crack a glue joint....
  9. I am finally getting around to building a 59 Elcamino and the ones on my stash all seem to have the same problem. Either no hood or the blower hole has been cut out. I looked around and found this 61 Impala hood and went hmmm... So I have been working on that the last couple days.
  10. Buying? Not bad really. Over the last year maybe four new kits. Trading on the other hand?.....yeah, let's not go there.
  11. That was the Towne car. In fact, a friend just sent me an old build up that still has the taxi decals on it. Do you happen to have any pics of the one you built?
  12. WoW ! This should be cool!
  13. Correct Steve, no plated parts. The other nice thing about these is that the windows are just thin flat plastic, so they will be really easy to make out of just about any blister packaging. Oh, and Steve, I took the X700 out for a stroll yesterday.
  14. You guys....? Actually, it is upside down, it has a glass bottom, and I plan on sitting it on an oak base that will elevate the model so the wheels are level with or slightly above the black surround.
  15. People that are high functioning autistic never cease to amaze me. When they find something that they truly love, the sky is the limit. Think of what this young man's photography skills will be like when he is in his 20's.
  16. I see you finally got your saws. ?
  17. I found a very cheap 1/8 scale display case. Otherwise known as a 10gal aquarium. $15 at Walmart. I just need to clean up the glass and build a base for it so the car sits up higher in it.
  18. That turned out really well. I keep a few of those old nascar chassis around for that exact purpose.
  19. Great concept and even better execution.
  20. That is one beautiful bird, as is the back story.
  21. I wish I had his collection, and a pinch of his talent. https://komonews.com/news/erics-heroes/erics-heroes-11-12-2020?fbclid=IwAR3NPpkTq5nYnLqcGhCDBZPrA8dc3NlB6zbNlmuMCis6r0r6ZS2Y2i-_cPM
  22. That looks so aggressive. ?
  23. Thank you Noel. I appreciate the input. So I took one apart and soaked it in the purple pond. It took the old bottle testors paint right off, but I noticed it tarnished the metal. Maybe brake fluid would be better next time.
  24. I can hardly wait to see it in the gallery.
  25. Almost done. Next pics will be in the gallery.
