  1. IIRC the Testors is a re-issue of the Gunze kit which is setup to be motorized. The body is nice but the interior is simplified.
  2. Although animated I don't consider Rango a kids film. This clip gives you a good idea what the movie is like. One of my favorites.
  3. Very nice.
  4. I like that you added supports inside the body so it actual rest on the chassis and not just held up by the top of the roll bar.
  5. Cage The Elephant - Cold Cold Cold
  6. Not sure which style deep sump you are looking for but wouldn't be difficult to modify a stock kit pan as I did to the pan on the left. sawed off the bottom of the sump created the deep sump with (3) layers of sheet plastic sanded it to the desired shape glued it in place
  7. Nice work.
  8. You should dig it out and enjoy it.
  9. More Jethro Tull.
  10. Depends on the diameter I need. I have used straight pins and brass rod as well as pieces of wire. The wire allows for more adjustment after install (if needed) as it bends more easily than the other materials.
  11. I'm having the same issue with these AMT Mustang wheel covers. The varnish coat is still covering nice detail.
  12. Very nice.
  13. How I do it: layout where you want the pins to attach to the body - I use a mechanical pencil to trace the wing attachments or simply measure out the locations drill the holes in the body hold or tape the wing in place using a pencil or a drill bit from inside the body mark the pin locations on the wing remove the wing, drill the holes and install the pins mount the wing to the body after paint The rear wing on this Barracuda is pin mounted using this technique.

    Steve, did you use the donor Mustang kit's interior?
  15. Engine crate from the IMC - Little Red Wagon:
  16. Turned out great.
  17. Nice work. I for one would be interested in seeing more of your drawings/sketches.
