  1. That's great!!! Love that wild interior pattern, where did it come from?
  2. Peter, sometimes it's not about quantity, but rather quality, and I see excellent work here!!! Great year for you!
  3. Man, that aint no RatRod, that's pure genius!!! It's way to classy, and cool. There's so much going on everywhere to take in.......Love it!!! Everything you've done has been great, fantastic builds brother!!!
  4. Pat, you never fail at creating some of the coolest model stuff ever!!! All is good!!!
  5. Thanks a bunch fellas!!! Bernard, the headers on the green car were scratch built based on the ones from the 1/8 Big Rod, and took three attempts to get right! Tony, the red car is an original '64 kit, the clones are based on the latest reissues, with some unique original parts. Yes the steering parts are a real pain, but will work with a little effort. This poor kit has kind of been through a lot over the years with lots of reissues. There is a ton of flash, and fitment problems, but still builds up pretty good!!!
  6. I finally finished this part of my "Little T" project!!! Ever since I got my hands on an original 1964 Little T, and restored it, I always wanted one each of the three options included in the original kit. Well, I had a molded in yellow turtle deck from a 1970 Sweet T, then acquired an original oval tank & mount, plus an original set of headers, and mufflers from a member here (Thanks John!!!) So, to make things even better Revell reissued the Ford T Street Rod (what's left of the Little T) plus the Blue Bandito......Game on!!! This project took two T kits, two Blue Bandito's, two '30 woody's, and a Lil Coffin to complete. The ironic part is that these all could have been done in '64, as all these parts were available!!!
  7. Excellent!!! always wonder when people build a gasser using these bigger cars, but this one is perfect! Great build James!
  8. Just beautiful!!! About dang time something rolled off your bench John!!!
  9. I went looking for your build thread yesterday Eric, found it, and BOOM! Here it is all done. Man, it turned out even crazier than expected. Love it!, best Gremlin ever!!!
  10. That is a fantastic build of the Nova!!! Great detail, excellent use of photo-etch, smooth paint. It's to bad the texture on the roof is a little out of scale, but the seams are perfect!!! Ahh well, it's still one beautiful looking model!!!
  11. I kinda have to agree with Matt on the fact that it is just one picture, and at a bad angle. Look at the blower, and scoop in the '62 gasser Corvette......BEAUTIFUL!!! I'm sure the final product will be just fine.
  12. WOW, Wow, and wow!!! You totally went in a different direction with this one Pat, but what an awesome job!!! Great scale looking sanding marks!!!
  13. Beautiful chop Pat!!! This is going to be great....as always.
  14. I never thought I'd love a gremlin so much!!! Nice work...
  15. I have just about every 1/8 scale bike Revell has done over the years, but have never added any of the MPC bikes, so these will great to see back!!! Maybe if they sell good, they might see fit to bring more back. I too would love to see the ATC 90 back, and the Schwinn bicycles were really cool. Built both a few years back, but sold them. As far as Round 2's website goes, they hardly ever update it anymore, why bother having one, if it doesn't get updated?
