  1. Suuuuwweeet!! I like the color here too. Wicked!
  2. Cool! Subject matter that I do know something about!!! I like the direction you're headed with this..
  3. Thanks Carl! Man that was a find all to it's own there. I was at my shop and found this wire on the floor. I almost tossed it and thought to myself.................."Now that's just the right scale for a heater hose!". The rest is history! lol
  4. Tim: I want to bud....I really do! I've still got the rear valance/ tail light panel, hood assy to repair and paint, and an antenna to install. I think that's it. Thanks for the comments buddy! Tom: Thanks man!! I'm having nightmares about hose clamps! lol
  5. Now that's what I'm talkin' about!!!! Yeah!!!
  6. Motor's lookin' good Tim!! Stance is right on and that chassis looks killer!!
  7. I like the idea and your hard work and effort are definitely paying off here Joel
  8. Thanks Jose! After my last build I'm going to have a completely open mind about the details of this build. I know where I want to go with it but what happens between here and there is anybody's guess!! The Challenger build seemed to have a mind of its own!!!
  9. Jose: Thanks dude! Randy: I appreciate the good word man! I like what you're doin' with that GT-40.....wow! Dan: Thanks buddy! I'm lookin' forward to bein' there myself. We'll see how the red beast fares! lol Brodie: Thanks for the encouragement! Glad you were able to fix that. I have three of those kits and none of 'em have that issue. I'd like to suggest Revell kit #85-4213 for some additional goodies for your T/A build. The engine in that kit sucks canal water but the air cleaner and brake booster/master cylinders alone are worthwhile additions to the engine bay. There's a few other things you can use out of that kit as well. I used the IP decals out of it for the IP gauge work on this build.
  10. Lee: Thanks buddy! Jim: Thank God! I'm enjoying this build but it's time to move on another one! lol Thanks for the comments Jim!
  11. Thanks Don! Well I'm assuming that the color is factory. I chose to keep the body the color it was molded in. Carl: Oh Carl....I found those keys! Well guys I think (unless something pops up or doesn't look right ) I'm finished with the engine bay.....finally! The pics came out really bright and the body color looks more pink than anything else but I wanted to bring out the detail and the only way was to brighten the photos up a little. Later pics will be in normal colors. After this I moved on to the rear valance, tail light and bumper assy. Then it'll be the rear spoiler and a couple of other piddly things. Here goes: ( I do have to get that dust offa there don't I) We go from this (which is at least acceptable for my younger years) To this:(I do, however, need to get rid of that dust!!!)
  12. Looks good so far Andre and that is a nice color on that build. Interior and engine work are great!!
  13. Looks great buddy! I can't get over the uniformity and level of attention and detail that you are giving each and every one of these things Tom!! One to go.........
  14. I've always thought these were the coolest trucks and this one just topped that!
  15. One word...........I uh.....well uh.............forget it....................
  16. The plans are to use some Weld Draglites that I got from Competition Resins. These wheels are my faves and will be used on most of my builds.
  17. Dang Kevin!!! Now that's a set up!!! Lookin' forward to pics....must....have .....pics......
  18. Whatever gets the job done is what I always say.
  19. That's gonna look suuuuuweeeeet!!
  20. Ellen: I appreciate the information on the fenders. I'm probably going to keep the same fenders though. Rob: My plan is to keep the slicks but will figure that out as time progresses. What usually happens when I get started is the build ends up dictating to me what the next step is. lol . BTW I like your signature block. David: I like the idea on the pill bottles. I never woulda thought of that!! My wife is a nurse so these are a freekin' dime a dozen around here so I may try this route if all works out. Anything besides all that junk just hanging out there from the fender area! The plans so far are to go with a 429 Boss under the hood. We'll see......
  21. Man this build is da bomb!!
  22. Heeey man!!! That's lookin' good so far!!
