  1. Very nice John.
  2. Thanks Dann. It was a fun build. A nice break from my more involved projects.
  3. Nice photos, would like to see more if you care to share them.
  4. Glad you started a thread on this build Bruce. When I got back into building after many years away from the hobby I built one of the Monogram Indy car kits. I'll be following.
  5. Nice job Keith, the color really pops.
  6. Very nice indeed.
  7. The intake is wild, wonder if it was ever actually installed on a 1:1?
  8. Is your hood a resin copy of the A/FX hood?
  9. Outstanding!
  10. I've been in a drag racing mood lately Gary, jump in! Here's my Dragonsnake - CSX2248 "El Cid" in it's original colors.
  11. Very nice Randy.
  12. Thanks for noticing the stance Scott & Dennis, I work at getting it right. Glad you enjoy the builds Jim, roll cage and interior is next on the to do list.
  13. Hope you start a new thread for this build Bruce, off to a nice start.
  14. No, liquid plastic is not a cure all filler just another tool in the tool box.
  15. I haven't had any issues with shrinking or cracking. I like to use it mostly to reinforce joints similar to a welder would use weld. I use it to reinforce joints when I make a roll cage or I will brush it on the backside of a joint that has very little contact surface. I also like to use it to build up edges, for instance if I need to change the shape of a wheel opening. I let it dry overnight then I can sand it just like virgin plastic. I built up the edge of this air dam (the white plastic) then sanded it to shape after it setup.
  16. Any liquid cement will work, I prefer Plast-I-Weld. If the plastic solidifies just add a little more liquid and it will soften up again and become workable
  17. Appreciate the comments gentlemen. The front clip should not be visible below the bumper but such are the challenges of getting everything to line up in kit bashing. Since it will be exposed I decided to detail it. Before: After:
  18. Something like this Ray?
  19. Interesting project Dominick, I'll be following.
  20. Great idea on the flex pipe Brain. I have a tap & die set, I'll need to test it out.
  21. A picture of the car you trying to build Gary would help us help you.
