  1. Gary , your pictures are always helpful and appreciated. still haven't found what they call a 2 story falcon cab. looking to scratch build with upper cab from ford c600 and grille from this 1963 n600 ford from motor city resin casters
  2. thanks for the advice Brian, looks like a good starting point. would need to find some vintage style wheels.
  3. i hope to build this shelby team hauler and need advice on a 1/25 or 1/24 kit to start from. early sixties, possibly a moving trailer.
  4. i have not seen this car done yet . looking forward to seeing your progress . looks great so far and hood vents look perfect.
  5. fantasy trans am series racing car, i wouldn't mind building this myself.
  6. last friday was a very sad day hearing of the passing of Neal Peart . i have seen him play many times and he was an incredible talent and one of the greatest drummers of all time. but never knew he was into model cars and a gear head. RIP Neal
  7. this is a cool build and nice work. on my list of kits i would like to build along with about 100 other kits i would like to build. found a couple maybe rare photos . the rear flares on this car are massive and rear tires look huge. this could be a different car then your building ,but still has the same looking flares
  8. the new gt 500 would be cool. not complaining, but how is the GT4 mustang not a model kit yet?
  9. not sure if they are sold out, http://fein-design-modell.de
  10. a cool build, flares look great .
  11. nice collection Rex
  12. Randy from modelbuilderswh.com has great service and like most suppliers, most kits are out of stock. but Randy will do his best to get parts and kits ASAP. i would send him a message from his web site to get fastest reply.
  13. a quick mock up cobra csx 3016 at sebring . made a heat shield for side pipe
  14. thanks guys, was going for the beat up and over heated side pipes. i have a ferrari hood coming and i hope it's just a little bigger so i can shape it down to fit.
  15. wow that is a lot of builds. they all look great !
  16. nice cobra Ben, tire and wheel upgrade look great.
  17. one finished side pipe only 15 more to go.
  18. Gary , your photo's have been a huge help. so cobra csx 3006 has an extended hood scoop. i made one and it came out alright. but hood from Historic Racing Miniatures Ferrari 250 GT is almost dead on. is it possible they used a ferrari hood scoop on csx 3006? sorry my pic was not a jpeg'
  19. finally got some base colors on some of the parts. first time using Zero Paint and Alclad brand paint . Alclad polished aluminum is now my go to paint for aluminum oil pans
  20. modified hood for csx3006 and filled side exhaust hole for csx 3176
  21. that is great news, hope to see 427 big block #2 decal sheet also .
  22. Gary ...... you are the man! thanks for the great pictures. I kinda figured you would have some pics that no one else has. what an interesting top. in that pic you can see the roll bar has a center support . but doesn't look like it's there in my pic. maybe added later on for a different race and different car number.
  23. thanks Maxx, i have a set of FIA wheels from Historic Racing Miniatures. they make great parts and kits. i need to change the roll bar to no support bar. still researching paint scheme.
  24. i'm back at this project. working on new side pipes and building a right hand drive version. cobra csx 3006 . i don't have a great picture, maybe someone knows if black paint on top extends past trunk as it looks in some pictures, also hood scoop looks extended forward and maybe longer . restored version has 6 spoke halibrands like a 289 comp car. can't tell what wheels it had when raced. ( update 12-15-2019 can't figure out how to edit post title)
  25. here is a site to get some cool 1/8 scale parts and other scale parts. shapeways.com/shops/3d-model-specialties
