  1. Mike, the black ones seem to be plentifull, seem to have been re-issued a couple times, not sure if the red one has been re-issued, seems sort of few and far between.
  2. looking good, this is going to be a beauty.
  3. I used masking tape and painted it black.........was all I had on hand.....
  4. looking good, can't wait to see more
  5. thanks, and yeah, ya caught me, I didn't put one half of a belt pair in there, was getting crowded Vince, thanks for the clarification
  6. you got it goin on! fantastic job, and great looking fleet of these! just fantastic
  7. I musta had a 1/2 dozen of these as a kid, both it and the one molded in black. when I got back into modeling again, I found a surplus of the black ones, but no red ones, so on the hunt I went. I found a few 1/2 builts that weren't too bad, and then finally found that one for a reasonable price.
  8. looks great so far, although I must say, the two 'failed missions' don't look so bad to me. foil looks fantastic, well done.
  9. thanks guys. a big thanks to Bowtienutz [Vince], he hooked me up with the belt buckles and window cranks/door handles, I think he is just trying to make me work harder at these things , seriously though, thru his sending me parts like this, it has made me think a little more about what I am doing, and realizing how much better things look with that little extra something. will probably 'pad' the arm rest on the next one. Vince, I made the belts long, as all the A body cars I had back in the day had super long belts. I even had one that had 'clips' on the bottom edge of the bottom of the back seat to hook the buckles to, to keep them orderly. Carl, as mentioned, Vince hooked me up with the door hardware, the packaging says 'Replicas & Miniatures Company of Maryland' hopefully Vince will pop back in and verify. good stuff though! although, I have to ask him for sure, as I think I need to order a bunch of these for 'stock', lol. thanks again guys, body is now glued on, with some luck, later tonight or tomorrow she should be about done
  10. got this the other day, have 2 open/semi builts of it, but finally scored a sealed one,
  11. got a little more done, a little more mock up to see how it looks, thanks for looking.
  12. the 'sheen' of the interior is spot on! whole car is looking sweet too!
  13. thanks all, been an interesting build for me so far. Lee, that is testors GM Nassau blue.
  14. ......any new pic's............
  15. been working on this one for a little while now. have done many 'new to me' things on this build so far. hope you like it, and a few mock ups
  16. Jeff, that looks fabulous! not a fan of brown, but man, it looks great on that truck, well done sir
  17. looks terrific, great job on the trailer. great looking combo.
  18. I just posted this like this, find pic you want in PB in your library, while all the pic's are small, there are 4 boxes under them, left click on the bottom box under the pic you want and it will turn blue, once it's blue, right click it, click 'copy', then come here, type in whatever text you want, then hit 'control' and 'v' and it should put the picture in as text, after you hit the 'post' button, it will show up as the pic. hope this helps
  19. click on the img link under your picture so it turns blue, right click, copy, then come here and when ready for the pic, press 'control' and 'v' and it will put the link in your post, after you post your message, the pic will show up. hope this helps.
  20. JT, you've done it again! great looking truck and trailer my friend. I have an idea for you [if you have the room], I think it would be cool if you built a truck stop diorama, you have the fleet to fill the parking lot, what do you think?
  21. Justin, that came out amazing! fantastic work!
