  1. Got this for my birthday last week!!! I've been just itchin' to get into one of these kits.....
  2. I've heard ALOT of good stuff about this one!!! ALOT! For 281 bones it better be a good one is all I've gotta say!!! lol
  3. The back of the cab is molded separately? Never seen that one before. Looks like a good build forming up here.
  4. Thank you Carl and Tom!! I was going to get up this morning and work on it some more but had a pretty bad headache so I slept this session out. I did have some time later on in the morning after about 5 more hours of sleep to siddown and work on the drivers seat some. Some dust had landed in the paint (go figure!) so I lightly sanded the affected areas with some 3600 to smooth it all out and went too far and would up down to the primer in two spots. One step forward...two steps back. More progress in this coming week. I hope to start laying paint down on the body by Friday.
  5. I'll be looking forward to the paint finish. It may be a small detail but I noticed those headlights look fantastic!!! Nice and clear!
  6. Great modification work there Jay! Lookin' forward to more!
  7. Man that paint finish is to die for!! Wow! Real nice build there JD!
  8. Your weathering and aging abilities are right up there with the best of 'em Chuck!! Can't get much better'n 'at!
  9. I see nothing wrong with the truck myself. Maybe the back of the hood to body fit but that's a fantastic stance and wheel/tire combo. Colors look great and finish is dang near glass. Looks friggin' awesome to me!!!
  10. Nice work Tim! I love these ol' F-100's as well as have a great appreciation for re-builds and your resto turned out great!
  11. Wow! The stance, color and paintwork are magnificent!! Great job!
  12. You know Ira, you come with some of the most crazy ideas that only you could pull off. Where you get this stuff at I really don't know but you manage to put the "WOW" factor out there big time in a most intriguing and appealing kind of way. Great work bud on a cool and definitely unique build there bubba!
  13. The color choice is nice and the stance and wheels top it all off. Cool and well painted build there Tim!
  14. Man that's a great looking build there Frank! I'd lean towards painting the tail gate red to compliment that great build though.
  15. Looks good there Walter!
  16. Looks just fabulous Larry! Nice brushed on paint job there fella!
  17. Thanks JC! I'll keep that one in mind for future dual quad applications buddy.
  18. That's funny. I had the same experience. There was an article with a picture of a car there but it sure aint a Barracuda! lol
  19. Looks like something that got left in the commode and needs to be flushed. Good grief!!
  20. I didn't much like the seating that came in the original boxing (and never really have to tell you the truth)..... So I upgraded to the 1/24 Monogram 55 F-100 kit seat which looks a helluva lot more up-to-date and a lot neater in appearance. (Man I'm glad I bought that kit in the beginning to supplement this build. lol) After a lot of clean up on the seat platform I washed both parts this morning and they'll be in the primer stage by later this morning.
  21. Holy Schmokes!!! How in the wide world of sports did I miss this? Outstanding work on this beauty Tom! Really nice!
  22. Thanks Rob, Dave and Carl. Not much in the way of pics but have been working on touching up and clean up on the flocking and foot pedals. I got the brake and clutch pedals painted up yesterday, I ordered a bare foot PE gas pedal this morning and got the gear shift painted and installed today. I'll end up using a steering wheel I got from my Barris T Buggy kit. I may acquire another steering column. I'm just not "feelin" the one that's in the kit boxing.
  23. LOL!!! ...............................wait a minute...............Yikes!
  24. I'm in on this one Joel. Progress is good so far.
