Working on the 68 Hemi (repainted in Bronze) & working on the Lamborghini Aventador & blasting out some Judas Priest.

Got the Hemi Dart primed today and some of my next build which is a Lamborghini Aventador. Man I really like the Tamiya Primer that primer goes on really thin and smooth.

Has anyone here built the Lamborghini Reventon by Fujimi ? Or purchased one yet? Was wondering how detailed it is and if the motor is separate.

This is my next build. I purchased the Aoshima kit & the detail parts kit.

Yes I know but want to get this done plus i needed another 426 Hemi motor for a future project.

Picked up another Revell Hemi kit to use the body & hood for the repaint and will be changing the color also even though I liked the Rootbeer.Plus the 426 in this kit is done really well so I'll be using that for a future build. So hopefully I will be able to get this painted tomorrow since today i did the body clean up & scribed the door and trunk lines & primered the body today.

Going to have to repaint ! Leaving the rubber band on overnight to get the ride height correct cut into the paint pretty bad. Learning something new everyday.

I'll be keeping my Harley for sure !

Well have gotten it cleared and the strip on the rear & should have done some research on the rear strip because it's not far enough back on the trunk and as it goes down the sides it is slanted forward a bit.

Clear coated the rims tonight & made mounting plates for the rear backing plates to axle housing & painted them.

Was not sure if the two tone interior would go with the Root Beer paint. Here are few pictures of the wheels & tires and the hood after being painted.

Awesome Build John! It was a pleasure chatting with you at the NNL West this year & seeing your work in person which is just unbelievable!

Here is one of my work benches.

Also going to add the strip on the back in white.

Also built a custom center console & shifter & the bezel that is over the shifter. Will also be installing front discs & calipers and may try to run the brake lines also & also scratch built a set of traction bars for the rear.

Well this another one I start a couple of months ago & since the Camaro is finished I start back up on the Hemi Dart. The color is Root Beer & the pic does not do it justice. I had to raise up the Hood scope to accommodate the aluminum stacks on the carbs. Reworked the rear wheel tubs for some wider meats and made a different rear end. The interior is just about finished just have to add a few details & a Tach yet.

Nice & Clean !

Here is my bench today and started working on the 68 Hemi today & also the lighted magnifying lens arrived today and I must say this thing is awesome.

Yes I lowered it as much as could without having to modify the suspension components to much.

Thank you all for the comments! Going to try and work on the 68 Hemi today.

Thank you all for the comments ! Yes it's nice to finally get one of my started builds done now its time to finish the 68 Hemi.

Forgot to mention that I also removed the lower grill insert and replaced it with a metal grill and painted it semi black.

2010 SS Camaro ,Tamiya Green Pearl Paint, Testors One Coat Lacquer,Scratch Built K&N Air Filter,Aluminum Rear Fitted Axle, Drilled out the Brake Rotors, Blacked out the Wheels. There are some minor issues that where some what fixed but to properly fix one I would of had to strip the paint and repaint the whole car. I also filled in the lines of where the front and rear clips joined the body. The motor is for my next build which is a 68 Hemi Dart which is only one of the three that are started and on the bench also. Tell me what you guys think ! and thanks for looking !

I'm building a 62 Catalina also.

Metalizer clear or sealer ?
