  1. Hello all, Anybody have completed single drive cabovers for inspiration/reference points? If you do could you please post pics. Thank you.
  2. Hakan, Hello and thank you for the reply. I know KW's and Pete's had white engines from the factory in the 1970's but wasn't sure about White Freightliner. I know the AMT Diamond Reo FL116 kit features a Red Cummins NTC 350 or a 370. I will stick to the beige. have a great evening.
  3. Hello all hope everyone's well. Need some suggestions. I am in the process of building the AMT White Freightliner SD and need some suggestions for the color on the Cummins NTC 250. I know the box shows it in tan, but curious if white was used as well. if anyone can help I'd certainly appreciate it. Thank you.
  4. Very nice job. Love what you did. Ryan is my favorite driver as well. He has the stuff to be a future champion in the Monster Energy Series.
  5. Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. Great job. Congratulations.
  7. Very nice job. I really like it.
  8. Paint is on the body. Testors Fiery Orange Lacquer. So far so good. Will have the 440 C.I. engine option.
  9. David. Thank you.
  10. If I am not mistaken the 455 Stage 1 put out 360 HP. And ran 13's off the showroom floor.
  11. Thank you very much.
  12. After my build of the 1970 Buick GS I am now going to be building the Revell Special Edition 1968 Dodge Charger. I am planning on doing it showroom stock in a color similar to the one shown on the box. Love these 1968-70 Chargers.
  13. Hello all I hope everyone's well. This is a project I started 2 years ago. The first model car I bought in about 34 years. The Monogram 1970 Buick GSX. It's probably my favorite muscle car of all time and the one I consider to be the best one ever built (before I get decimated by the 1970 Chevelle SS 454 LS6 crowd it's a personal opinion). I original painted her with Tamiya TS19 Metallic Blue. However I changed my mind yesterday and resprayed her in Testors Star Spangled Blue Lacquer. I also never did as thorough a job on an engine bay. The spark plug wires came courtesy of a NASCAR car kit I had laying around. The only things left to do are the headlight lenses, taillight lenses, touch up on the intakes on the air cleaner, the battery, the washer fluid reservoir, and the side mirrors. I think she came out quite good.
  14. Craig, very nice job. I like it a lot. There are two things I have learned over time. Never steal another man's fries. And I never negatively criticize another builder's work. I know my limitations and frankly know that I will never build a show worthy prize winner. However I build for myself first and foremost and I am proud when someone comments positively about my models. And I take anything that is given as a suggestion and try to apply it with each example I build moving forward. And I do appreciate comments, and suggestions from others on these boards, and others I belong to. In any event great job.
  15. WOW very nice. I have one that's 60% done I like your take on the drag aspect. Once again great job and thanks for sharing it with us.
  16. Thanks Marty. Got about 10-12 projects that at a minimum have at least paint on them. Will post as I go along.
  17. Never liked Caddy's. Until NOW!!!! That is so AWESOME! great job!
  18. Thanks Steve. Will post as I go along.
  19. Thanks. hopefully the balance of the build comes out as good as the paint did thus far. Will post as I go along.
  20. Hi thanks. Yes I just ordered a set from Slixx. Using a Gasser set for the name Lunatic Fringe.
  21. Hello all hope everyone is well. I started to build my son's Mustang Funny Car. Using the Connie Kalitta Mustang kit I sprayed the body with Tamiya TS-8 Italian (Ferrari) Red. Thinking outside the box I now just need to source decals for it. This may just be the best paint job I have ever sprayed. Suggestions are much appreciated. Thank you.
  22. Testors Extreme Lacquer Star Spangled is the blue on the 1953.
