Jim, look at the upside, by the time stuff finishes falling off, it'll be like starting a fresh kit

Howard, i met up with Curb and Craig a few times between friday and saturday, but did not get a chance to meet you, perhaps next year. as far as the line to get in is concerned, it was my first time going, and my initial thought was, we are never getting in there [i was in line all the way at the 'back door'], but holy cow, the doors opened, and we were in in a flash! granted, we got there a little early and did stand in line for a bit, but given the fact that entry sheets and admission cost was done while in line, it really sped things up, and before i knew it i was walking around with my chin on the ground looking at all the cool stuff that was there. as we left, i was already rambling on about next year...........

i brought my 96 z-28 convert. home today from storage, so i am guessing a week of rain will be coming........

looking good. i also agree on the inch to inch and a half frame extension , she looks too short as is.

oh yeah, you are on the right track! looking good, love it!

it's all good, just make it here once a month to say 'still here', lot of time left, so when you get time, you're still in

Ray, looking good, i like the red and silver. i have yet to 'stripe' a build of a rig, but you have inspired me to give it a try, keep at it

Dennis, wow, looking good! this is shaping up nicely

thanks everyone got a bit more done earlier today, currently have the fuel tanks and a bunch more stuff in primer, hope to have another update by the end of next weekend

I love it, great job!

WOW..................you never fail to amaze! just beautiful!

maybe i need to hit mine again.........

got to my local store 'late', got home from NNL East saturday night, went to ollies sunday afternoon, managed to score these, seemed fairly well picked over when i got there, fewer kits on the shelf then when they had the last sale, [last time was a 'center rack', this time, all were in the 'toy isle' and an 'end cap'], needless to say, my wife was impressed with my cart load

i have gotten into the habit of doing the body first. i tune up the body, then paint it, let it cure, then sand/polish it. after that, i will paint the interior parts to establish the color combo. the rest of the stuff depends on what i feel like working on. after all the engine/chassis is done, i will bmf the body and interior parts that need it, then button up the interior, and put it all together. the build order seems to always change a bit, other than always painting the body first........that way i have some eye candy to look at while i build the rest of the kit, kind of an incentive to keep plugging away.

looking forward to progress pic's on this. i know what you mean about finishing stuff for shows, i got side tracked with 3 builds for NNL East.....

ok, so, NNL East was fantastic, took 3 builds there with me [32 ford, 67 charger, 71 ford p/u], had a great time, and bought a boat load of kits so now that that is over, i have been at the bench working on the KW. progress pic's, and a little mock up, i used Double Take replicas wheels and tires, the kit tires weren't happening, and the kit wheels just were not doing it for me [plus the chrome job on them was horrible]. now that it's on wheels, and i can see what i am dealing with due to a mock up, i am going to take a crack at scratching a headache rack for it. motor is in color now as well, i hope to get some time this weekend to start working on that. as usual, thanks for looking, and i hope to be on here a bit more in the coming weeks with regular updates.

forgot this one

fabulous build, well done.

wow, how i missed this at NNL is a mystery to me, beautiful build!

that's a beauty, love the colors. i'd have to keep it, lol.

i dig it, very nice

took about a week and a half to get the missing tree of parts, it is now a complete kit

thanks guys

thanks guys

was not as bad as you would think
