  1. Beautiful coupe. Very well done.
  2. Roadster???
  3. Augie Pabst passed away last week at the age of 90 yrs old. To those who remember the heyday of '50's & '60's road racing, he was a legend. I've talked to him many times in the pits at Elkhart Lake & he was always approachable & pleasant. His stable included (one of three) front engined Scarab-the Meister Hauser special,(one of one) rear engined Scarab road racer-once used as his daily driver, an early '60s "E" type jag coupe, & an Aston Martin DB3 modified production racer. His death is a great loss to the road racing community. He was one of the last "gentlemen racers".
  4. Apparently peripheral visibility was not a priority.
  5. I brush on flat acrylic clear to seal tire decals.
  6. Be nice to know what kit you're talking about.
  7. Interesting choice of colors. Model on.
  8. What shade of blue is that? I like it.
  9. The first word that comes to mind; Smooooooth!
  10. As a Mopar guy I have to say, that's a good lookin Ford.
  11. Were the cans subjected to extreme temperature variations or freezing? I know that paints I store in the garage suffer from this.
  12. Nice work. Even in that condition the car would probably bring seven figures at auction.
  13. FYI. The "S" in A/GS class is for supercharged, not fuel injected. I see this small error quite a bit. Otherwise, nice build.
  14. I don't know why the box says '43 Willy's. Every car buff knows that their were no vehicles made for the public during the war years. The only thing Willy's made in '43 was the Jeep & some military trucks..
  15. Very impressive work.
  16. I love the wear spots on the floor beneath the foot pedals on the Ferrari. Nice touch.
  17. You do realize that a Cornet is a Dodge, not a Plymouth.
  18. Thanks to all for the advise. I've got a couple ideas.
  19. Does anyone have a technique to duplicate wrapped exhaust pipes? I'm talking about the wrapped tape around the pipe. I considered scraps of old t shirt & white glue but perhaps there is a better way. Any thoughts?
