  1. Here’s the paint scheme I did on that dragster. I followed Tim Boyd’s article on this model when I was trying faded paint jobs. I used metal flake blue and red. Good luck!
  2. Hey Thanks Dan! I was cranking away for a few days, now I’m kinda stalled. Work work work, blah blah blah! Hopefully back to it soon
  3. WOW! That came out really nice!
  4. Thanks guys, it was work stretching that body but it came out pretty good.
  5. Those were truly beautiful machines! Great job.
  6. Thanks for the pics! That helped!
  7. Thanks guys! Yes its the Chi town hustler. I had an extra one
  8. Good job on a tough paint scheme!
  9. Well, I was able to get the chassis for the Rambunctious on the ground. Hopefully I’ll have more done this week! Thanks for looking.
  10. It is Chevrolet Bahama Blue Met. And, thanks
  11. Thanks! Trying to finish this and the Rambunctious I started! Too many projects!
  12. Thanks! I’m working on 2 chassis’s at the same time
  13. Hey guys, along with starting the Rambunctious chassis I decided to finally start the chassis for the Federici Shark funny car I started awhile ago. here’s a couple of pics of both chassis’s
  14. Yeah, those are awesome colors. As long as I was being wild with the paint colors, I decided to do the chassis in star spangled blue fading into de=ja=blue. Did the wheels and slicks also.
  15. Hey guys, After reading a couple of Tim Boyd’s articles on faded paint jobs I wanted to try it on one of the Revell Chi-Town Hustler bodies, similar to one he actually did. I took the Charger body and after cleaning it up I primed it with Dupli color primer. After about 24 hours I prepped it then I used a base coat of diamond dust silver, starting from the bottom up i sprayed Purplicious purple at the bottom, then de-ja-blue, star spangled blue finished it. I then started with Revving red, then fiery orange and finished with mystic emerald green. I decaled it then used two part urethane clear. Another body done. Thanks for looking
  16. Fish eyes are from contaminants on the surface when you painted. You’d probably have to sand them down smooth and repaint them, depending how deep they are. Color looks great though.
  17. Glad you found a set. Looking forward to seeing it
  18. Looks good. Did you try Slixx.com or google those decals you might be able to find someone that has them. Good luck.
  19. Hi guys, I wanted to post an updated pic of the Milner dragster engine. It’s just about finished. I did some plumbing and its sitting in the chassis now. All in all I think it’ll pass for a decent shelf model. Thanks for looking!
  20. Wanted to get a little more done on the engine so now its wired, headers and valve covers installed!
  21. Awesome job on a classic muscle car. Congrats
  22. Hey Guys, just wanted to post some updates on the MAG dragster. I got the suspension done and its on wheels. I assembled the shot block from the parts pack 283 and inserted the plug wire boots along with modifying the moroso valve covers to fit. The pic also shows the headers and the pre wired distributor. So, its moving along...
