This is such an awesome build I am trying to take it all in. I have been taking notes for when I try a build like this one. Thanks for sharing. Bob

That's a very cool ride great job on it.

I think we should up the anti for him and require that he builds his inside a bottle like the boat guys, kind of like handy capping in golf. Scale-Master a true artist not just a model builder. Amazing detail.

Thanks Earl I will try that. Thanks Gene, they are the tires from the kit, they seem to fit nicely on this body although I did have to shorten the rear end to make them clear the body when I lowered the car. Thanks Carl hopefully it will look ok once buffed.

Getting some more of the detailing done. How's it look, just making things up as I go. If you see something in my details that I can improve on or things that might work better please speak up I'm trying to learn all this stuff and really helps when you all give advice or criticism either way I learn. Thanks Bob P.S. how do I edit the title to my thread.

Good looking build you have there.

Wow that's looking great.

Looks great hope mine comes out that nice.

Hi Chris, looks like you are very talented builder I look forward to more updates on your build. Also your English is just fine. Thanks for sharing welcome to the board.

Any updates on this one its a cool looking ride.

Nice work on that one you are a very talented builder and painter.

Nice work im a newb to this so yeha some of these guys work is hard to live up too. But like you said its all about having fun. Keep it up look forward to seeing more of your projects.

Looks like a fun one to use your imagination and just build something cool.

Pulled her out of the cooker when I got home and I guess I can live with it I will wet sand and polish and hope for the best. Now I have to hunt some carbs down and finish up some of the detailing then hopefully I can call this one done, of course with me that could take a few more weeks all though I hope not. I'm going with a flat black hood just need a little more work on it before painting. Here she is kinda of mocked up.

Thanks for the input guys I gave it another coat this morning before I left for the office, we will see how things look when I get home tonight. Tubbs no issues I chose that color because I just wanted something different, I didn't think covering light gray primer would be this hard who knows maybe it will still work out. John thanks for the laugh that cracked me up for some reason maybe because I only slept a 3 hours last night. lol

Wow very nice detail.

Looks great Richard.

Couldn't sleep so this is what I did. I will trim down that battery terminal once the glue has dried real good.

Note to self you have to be smarter than what your working on. I forgot to put headers on before wiring plugs.

Ugh painting is going to be the death of me. I should have known better than to try a color like yellow I can't seem to get good coverage with it. I'm using model master Bright Yellow Enamel, having a hard time getting the body lines to cover. Anyone know if you can or better yet how to go about adding coats of paint to enamel paint. Do you wet sand and then respray or just respray or should I just send this one into the pond for a bath. It's still cooking but I don't think it's going to come out to good. Any Help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Bob

Very nice can't wait to see it with BMF.

Tuned in and learning looks great.

Looks great now i want to build another one like yours i just dont have the skills yet. lol but im learning a lot from watching builds lije yours.

I often wonder who had it best the guys who could buy the classic 60's and 70's cars new or us who could buy them 10 years old with low miles and no rust. My first car in 79 was 1970 challenger 340 4 speed pistol grip 8 3/4 3.23s plum crazy in near perfect condition only needing a clutch, I paid $400 for it. I have been lucky enough to own some very nice and rare Mopars.

Awesome Awesome Awesome!!!!! What size hose did you use for your fuel line?
