    Man that is NICE!!! Exceptional work!!
  3. Wow Ismael!! That is indeed a stunner!! I thought this was a scale model before you mentioned it being diecast. I'm with Bill Geary on warming up to these cars. They are fast and sleek that's for sure but I'm a bit of a purist when it comes to Vettes but that certainly doesn't take away from the wow factor on this one. Very well done pal.
  4. I really like what you've done with this car Dan. I'm not much of a fan of the "Foose Way" so I took alot of interest in the title of the thread and then when I looked at your car I liked the mods that you did as well as all the detailing. The orange peel is fairly easy to deal with but requires a lot of patience. Keep at it man. If you ever need any help with auto finishes just reach out. There's alot of folks here who know what they're doing and more than willing to help. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
  5. WOW!! That turned out great!!!!
  6. Thanks Jim!! Hector thanks bud. I'm looking forward to seeing a thread on your Mustang.
  7. Cleanly built. Great job!!
  8. Oh my gosh man!!! You freekin' KILLED it Steven. That looks nothing short of amazing and the photography is just over the top.
  9. I hear you on being that close to the finish line and things going awry. Been there many many times. Usually at the tail end of a build I'm scared to death of handling a near finished project just because of what you're talking about with things coming off. To help with things not falling off like outside rear view mirrors and door handles I usually pin them to the body so they're more sturdily mounted. The cals......man....I hate to hear that for you but this build turned out very well despite all the trouble you had with it. Great work!!!
  10. That's a great idea and excellent use of parts!!
  11. That DID turn out nice Mike. Love the color and details.
  12. That is AWESOME news about it going to the Shelby Museum. Fantastic looking build that could pass for the real thing. Just beautiful Bruce.
  13. Sharp ride. Ya just can't go wrong with a good ol' Stang. Great work on that interior and OOB engine.
  14. Thank YOU!! I'm gonna have to give this a shot for the background on some of mine.
  15. Oh WOW!! Now THAT is COOL!!!! Convincing water effects and excellent idea and execution. NICELY done!!!
  16. Thank you Chris Thanks Gil. Yes sir...so much more was able to be put into this build as a result of having alot of experience with the car and all the pics. Thank you as well Dave. Right you are about all the memories. I had a flood of 'em come to mind throughout the whole building process.
  17. Good LORD man!!! That looks OUTSTANDING!!! That's how it's done right there!!!!
  18. Incredible work and photography. Paint finish is spot on. What did you use for the back ground? Looks like black poster board but it's got a matte finish. Looks great!!!
  19. Black is a difficult color to work with and you pulled this paint job off very well Joel. Such a slick looking car.
  20. For a kit like this it sure turned out a winner Gareth. You sure know how to make these old kits shine like a diamond man. Just beautiful.
  21. Good looking car Mike and love the throttle linkage and lines. Is that a light bulb filament for a throttle return spring?
  22. Thanks Craig. Yeah those little bumperettes or whatever the heck they're called just don't do it for me so those just HAD to go. Thanks Glen!! Thank ya Mike!! I haven't talked with you in a long time Jeremy. How've you been man? Thanks for the comments bro. Dan!!!! Thanks ol buddy!! I'm hoping to make it after all these dang graduations and my son wrecking his truck (he's ok but the truck sure aint) Thanks Keith!! Really appreciate the comments. Thanks Bill. Gonna have to go check out that Shelby if there's a thread on it. Thanks for the comments Rastislav!! 'Preciate it Eric!!
  23. Masterfully built and painted. Did you use a clear or did you work the wet sanding and polish on the color coat? I hear that MCW paints can pretty much go without a clear coat.
  24. Wow!!! First off , that paint finish looks fantastic!!! What the color and manufacturer of the paint? Secondly that engine bay is a thing of beauty. Awesome weathering and painting in there.

    Good lookin' build and I agree with the usage of yellow which is very nicely applied. Fantastic work on a stunning build.
