  1. Very nice build.
  2. X2
  3. Thanks Bill. The wheels are from the non-enthusiast version,the kit goes cheap on Ebay now days. Yes me too, they are the perfect mix of modern and classic,also said to be beautiful made. Some assume it`s just bolt on parts. Thanks Fabrizio.
  4. Picked up this old dust/gluebomb rally version of the 911 Carrera RS. I have taken it apart as gently as i could,and did not brake anything besides a rear spindle and some lug-nuts. Wanted to go for something ala Singer,or some modern style on this,keep original bodywork and such,but give it a nice ride height,some fat wheels,and maby some little tweeks on the engine. Not turbo because turbo Porsches sound like hairdryers,it will be N/A. Here is what i have to work with so far. The wheels and tires are brand new from the Fujimi flatnose turbo. My inspiration. But i do want the RS spoiler from the kit.
  5. Super clean Impala.
  6. Very nice color combo,looks great.
  7. Tons of detail,sweet model you have made there.
  8. Very nice Chevy,and i bet you`re friend will love it.
  9. Very nice. Great job on the engine and exhaust. May i ask where you got the intake trumpets?
  10. Thanks all for the comments. Should maby try take new pics with more natural lights.
  11. Its pretty bad if this is true. I`m no expert and not saying they are either. Often enthusiast who dont even own the brand or specific model have tons of knowledge,so i`m not saying you are bluffing either. I could see this happen with people who arent really into the car but buy out. of status.
  12. I use this,it dry in a phase wich will allow you to adjust some time after putting it on.
  13. Thanks. The spoiler is maby to much,but was not intended only for show.
  14. That`s a way to look at it. But i have doubts about them selling million dollar collector cars with fabricated faux history but that`s just me.
  15. It says even the Chinese know the diffrence and would buy the real deal if they can afford it. The truck in the Fox article looks like Japanese truck with a bad Chevy front end. They are so bad i would not even go so far and call it stolen design. This said people often tend to look for similarities even if there are lots of diffrence between a and b.
  16. My attempt at giving the old Monogram GTO new life. Sorry about the pic quality. Paint is Tamiya,both base and clear. Engine is 604cid Milodon w auto from VCG Resin. Fujimi wing with carbon,hard to see with the bad quality pics. The same carbon is used on the headlight covers/grill. Added chin spoiler from parts box,same with seats,gear linkage and steeringwheel. Wheels are Aoshima. Brakes are Brembo from "Forward Resin" on Ebay. Instruments,clamps etc are detail master. I could not find any decent mirrors i liked,will add later on. Any thoughts are welcome.
  17. Sweet looking hot rod,great carb setup.
  18. Looks amazing.
  19. That`s awsome! Is it a sock on the wipers?
  20. Very nice and classy looking Chevrolet. Love the flames.
  21. Looks great. Martini and Porsche looks great together.
  22. Even if the colors might seem bland alone,together this looks really great,classy looking Corvette.
  23. Cool idea and great build. Lot`s of stuff to admire ,but my fav thing about it is the exhaust.
  24. Thanks. Here is the gear linkage,dash not put on place on the pic but you get the idea. Should have thrown out the back seat and had seatbelts in hand,but i dont so.
