  1. Thanks for the compliments. Thanks Bruce. I know bigger wheels are not everyone's cup of tea but in most cases I prefer something a little bigger than 14" or 15" and slightly lowered. Gives a car a better stance IMO. For this build I didn't want to go with mags or anything 5 spoke and nothing too blingy. I settled on these wheels because they kind of remind me of the '68-'69 Ford GT wheels. Thanks for asking. I call it The CouGRRRR. The exterior is Tamiya Metallic Orange and clear rattle cans. I removed all scripts, emblems, marker lights and door handles from the body and boxed in the engine compartment. The 5.0 "Coyote" engine is from the Revell 2014 Mustang GT. Interior is Rustoleum Satin Warm Caramel and Testor flat tan, scratch built door panels, modified seats from Revell's 90's Cougar, MCG steering wheel, '14 Mustang shifter and brown embossing powder for carpet. The wheels are Aoshima 19" (not that big) VIP Modular VXS210, staggered with parts box sleeves in the rear. The exhaust is scratch built. For the tail lights I foiled the lights, painted them with Testor's Stop Light red. When dry, I scratched off the paint from the ribs. It's not flawless but I like it and was good enough to win the Street Machine class at the Tabletop Cruisers' Supercruise show this weekend. I'm glad you guys like.
  2. Nice job. The color, wheels and details. I've always loved the 2002. Gotta get a couple of these kits.
  3. Nice job. Molotow is a great invention.
  4. Has anyone tried this: http://www.trumpeter-china.com/index.php?g=home&m=product&a=show&id=2614&l=en
  5. That's insanely cool. Thinking way outside of the box.
  6. "Oldsmobility". Nice collection.
  7. Nice look. I think this is my favorite style of T-Bird.
  8. Totally cool. By the title I was expecting stock ride height and dog dishes but was pleasantly surprised to see your build.
  9. Nice job. The wheels, stance and engine work well together. As far as improvements, try your hand at doing washes, the grill would benefit from it. Keep it up. Like anything else, the more you do it, the better you get.
  10. Beautiful paint job. Only fault I see, beside lack of pictures, is the missing chrome trim along the bottom window edges. Oh, and no mirrors .
  11. Now that's cool.
  12. X2 & the engine looks so right in there.
  13. Really cool, nice idea.
  14. You can try the foil before paint technique. A bit tedious but can be worth the time spent.
  15. Would you have an updated list of 3D print casters?
  16. I like everything about this Fairlane, especially the wheels and stance.
