    Cobra 427

    Nice! Glad I clicked!
  3. Nice detail work!!
  4. I haven't, but I plan to put a couple on display, maybe in a case. One of the guys in the office across they way has a NASCAR curbside in his office so it's not a new idea there. One of the models I plan to display was given to me by one of the truck drivers and I'd like him to see I appreciate the gift as well.
  5. Wheeler Dealers, FantomWorks, Bitchin' Rides. They give me inspiration and motivation in building my models. Each of these do more in-depth building and less of the drama than some others, although there is some in every one because I believe the producers of these shows don't know car guys and think that every show has to have some ridiculous drama scene. I like Graveyard Cars but they have way too much drama. I also like Legendary Motorcars but I don't think they have a show anymore. They had a bit too much drama as well though.
  6. VCG Resins has a 396 that comes without a tranny, and also a separate TH400 for reasonable $.
  7. Nice work! I love the color.
  8. Very nice!!
  9. I'm diggin' it Jesse!
  10. I don't know about a different front end, but I've been researching gasser suspension setups and there are a lot of 1:1 tri-five gasser stories out there. I don't really think they change the frame rails though. Why do you feel the need to do that?
  11. Thanks Steve. Got the rear end today from BNL, and its huge! Just what I wanted so the duallys won't look goofy from the back.
  12. I got a chance to get a little bench time in between my wife and daughter taking me out separately to celebrate my 60th. So I managed to section and chop (a little) the F-100. It was fun and very challenging. Now I have to do a lot of finishing and making the doors fit. I'm planning on suicide doors, as I decided to remove the vent window frames since I broke them anyway.
  13. Just quoting what I recently read in Businessweek! They are not selling just fine.
  14. That's hot!! Nice work!
  15. Copy that! Last year Revell sent me the glass for my Ferrari even though I told them it was my bad, and it was discontinued. No charge!
  16. I did this earlier in the year for Jerry's Cherry's MOTM. Most either love it or hate it.
  17. The Fiats don't sell in the U.S. so Marchionne is taking his ball and going home!!
  18. I've got an AMT Cobra 289 unbuilt. I can make some measurements if you need me to. I may even be open to trading it.
  19. Don't know what the old ones looked like but here is what comes now. Tires are okay, not impressive. It comes with four wide and four narrow. I haven't taken the parts out of the plastic except for the tires and decals and really don't want to open it yet, as I don't plan to build it this year.
  20. Impressive!!
  21. I agree with everyone else! Nice clean build, very well done. I bought the kit two weeks ago at a closing hobby shop at a discount. Glad to see it can turn out so well!
  22. Very nice! Looks ready for a night out!!
