  1. Welcome back and you hit this one out of the park. I built the Thunder Valley transkit kit many years as ago before Fujumi did a Mark I body.
  2. Yes that is a great price. The Ebay prices on some of the Fujumi kits are ridiculous.
  3. Agree. Now if we only had a source for a more accurate engine. ?
  4. Extremely nice given what you had to work with and the extra parts you sourced to make a much more accurate engine compartment. I see in the description if you also used the Torino exhaust system to replace the incorrect kit one. ?
  5. That’s a great deal for $10. Although it’s not stock, I used it as a base for a 76 Cobra II build with aftermarket resin parts and decals. The IMSA style fenders remind me of the Monroe Handler.
  6. Looks great. Snap kits are often overlooked but the paint and detailing make a world of difference.
  7. Heating up a used exacta blade will easily cut through the plastic and then any excess can be cut off with a new blade. Just be careful not to heat up the bladed too hot or you could melt more than you need.
  8. I had never thought of doing that so I’ll be watching.
  9. This kit does take a lot of work out of making a custom. Nice color.
  10. Quick comparison of the Fujumi body to the MENG. The headlight shape is slightly different and the width of the section between the rear window and center section is quite noticeable.
  11. I did some test fitting and it looks pretty good.
  12. And here it is. The instruction booklet is quite detailed. Decals are included for #1, #2 and #5 Lemans 1-2-3 finish at Lemans.
  13. Very creative and the end result looks great.
  14. My neighbor driving his GT40 with my wife and I am in hot pursuit. ? FullSizeRender.mov 2860D7D4-7025-4CE2-A5A4-1FE40599D15B.MOV
  15. Dumb luck I guess. The Daytona Coupe ahead of us is a Factory Five. IMG_3430.MOV
  16. My wife and I got to ride in one today. C0702C64-88DF-4B84-B224-1ACD94A103A4.MOV
  17. Can I create my own crypto-currency to “buy” them? ?
  18. You are cranking out kits like nobody else. I think those of us with hundreds (or even dare I say 1000+ kits) are wishing we were as productive. As others have mentioned each kit you build is better than the previous one. Keep the coming.
  19. Very nice MOPAR. ? I hope you have not run out of Cobra’s to build. ?
  20. Thanks for sharing. I hope people with cell phones do not complain about the number of pictures. There’s something for everyone.
  21. Very nice color combo. The scoops were not functional on the real cars and I actually like the look without them. Nice job.
  22. It’s is the Miller family Shelby American Collection in Boulder Colorado. I visited there in January this year.
  23. I guess the Fujumi kits are dropping in value if this is any indication. $40 is a good price shipped.
  24. Hard to decide unless you have your own museum.
  25. Looks fantastic and I can read the numbers on the guages.
