  1. Hey Greg can you give me the name of that header shop? I love their work.
  2. Thanks Bill, I'm real happy with how its turned out so far.
  3. Very nice build, Curt.
  4. The early Revell kits have always been daunting to build, but especially for a kid. I preferred to build Monogram kits as a kid, Tom Daniel's kits in particular. They went together well and being molded in color meant no body painting(!). I just purchased another kit and plan to build it as a production 914/6. Maybe I can inspire you to build yours.
  5. The vent posts that are supplied in the kit are pretty much chrome blobs as you can see in the photo. So I replaced them with some .030 x.040 styrene strip. Big improvement I think.

    Very nice Bruce. Real clean build and I love the color.
  7. Thanks Ron. I didn't know you were a Porsche guy. I love the color of that 911 Turbo Cabriolet.
  8. Welcome Rex. Start posting some of your builds. I think people would enjoy seeing them. I know I do.
  9. Done the Polar Lights stock car chassis under the MPC Mercury Cyclone. Here are the results.
  10. Thanks John. Nobody know the car better than the mechanic that works on them. The TV show Wheeler Dealers restored a 4-cylinder and the decided to drop the engine instead of stand on their heads to work on it.
  11. Thanks Jeff. Thanks Danny.
  12. How big a geek am I? New Years eve and I home modeling. It been quite some time since I posted an update. However I have finished flaring the front air dam. Cut in the front oil cooler opening. Fit the 'boot' lid and engine cover. Lots of fiddling and modifying to get those panels to fit nicely.
  13. Ron, Great build. Is the engine from the '57 Ford kit? Did you scratch build the fuel injection?
  14. Thanks Smokey. We appreciate your support.
  15. Glenn. wheels, tires & windscreen came from Historic Racing MIniatures. We have honorary members all over the country. Our club puts out a nice newsletter that often includes kit reviews. The newletter is available in PDF format on the website. You should check it out. Thanks Laz.
  16. Glenn, The red Cobra is a replica of CSX 2026. The Cobra that delivered the first race win to Shelby and the only race win for the 260 cid engine.
  17. That is correct Tom. Thank you for mentioning it.
  18. Very nice Marcos. It would be a great hauler for upcoming Cobra build.
  19. Thanks Glenn. Thier is no cost to join MAMA and we have a lot of great builders happy to share information. Check out our website: www.mamasboyz.org

  24. Very nice build John. The wheels/tire & stance are perfect. Are the wood sideboards & bed decal or paint? Love the shark on the hood/roof.
