  3. Awesome job Brian ! Looks like a real work truck that's been heavily worked ! Now she can retire
  4. I'm with you I like the blue much better
  5. About your paint sensitivity, would it be possible to use a respirator for painting where you would spray rattle cans ?
  6. Hey Bob I have to use 3rd party hosting on other forums, that's when fotki comes in. Theres numerous sites that'll work..I just picked that one. I transfer any photos from my phone to the site , then upload to forums using the copy - paste method . Fotki...and many others have a list of links you'd use for this. Photobucket used to be the common host but after taking everyone's pics hostage I left . Hope this helps , if still unsure ask any questions we'll definitely try to help theres tons of help here that's why I like the forum so much
  7. I use fotki for hosting pics , but found it unnecessary here since they allow photos to be downloaded directly from my phone. I just click the paperclip , find image I want from device , and it uploads here..most of the time .
  8. One trick I use for locating the perfect spot for your pinned parts..say mirrors and such..after pinning them take a bottle of any model paint and dip the end of the pin into it..just a very small amount. Now touch the area you want the mirror to mount..the paint gives ya a spot to drill the hole no more guessing ..

  16. Wow great info thanks for taking the time to fab the new hood from f glass !
  17. Hopefully all the molds mentioned are is working order and can be used again ! I've always admired the older kits and the terrific art work
  18. Thanks this build was certainly enjoyable playing with a concept idea and trying to keep it totally possible gm could've started the production of the car using available parts . My buddy kept reminding me to keep it period correct Thanks for your feedback and following along ! Thanks! Yeah those wheels were essential to the build, my 71 has the same style. Yep I stripped all the chrome w super clean, sprayed the blue, cleared , then used the 1mm molotow pen for the chrome .
  19. Another awesome build John!
