I have bought several of his bodies and hoods over the years and his stuff is top notch. (still waiting for him to carry a chopped 34 3window)

I had a discussion about that and I don't think it is feasible enough for him Since this post I have talked to club member the prints drag engines and bodies and he could do it if he can find the files

Looking for a Large Scale 1/10 Buick Nailhead. I am working on a couple 1/8th Scale T Buckets and the 1/8th engines I got are to large for this application. I just tried a 1/12 scale thinking it might they might be a bit small but they are too small. Hoping 1/10 might work just unsure if anyone has any available. I know I could use the SBC that came with it but this build calls for a Nailhead.

Was it Autumn Poly or Adobe Beige ? MCW has a Autumn Gold in Lacquer or enamel and Adobe Beige in Laquear

Unfortunately it is molded in black. But thanks I will probably use that on a future build

Building a 1//8th scale T Bucket and I want the script on the tailgate and radiator housing white. Any tips on the best way to do this ? Than You

I build a lot of T Bucket projects and use evergreen square tubbing glue across from one side to the other with Canopy cement. Helps support the body and gives a handy spot to attach to when painting. Peels off when done.

I have tried both, I think I like the half round better but it may be tough to do Dimond Tuck.

Anyone now a source for 1/8th scale T Bucket pinstripes in white ?

I couldn't find much in the search but anybody have any experiance with FusionFirm Chrome paint ? In the video I did find it stated the clear coat was like Alclad Auqa Klear. The gold did not do so well as to shine

On todays news there was a story about local Hobby/Toys shops closing due to higher cost that included upcoming (?) tariffs. Just wondering about how this will effect our hobby in the near future ? Thoughts ?

Not to odd after owning a onedoor. And it is on the front.

Very good info there. I have 2 Iwatas , NEO & Eclipse, 2 Badger Patriots and a Passche H with a #3 tip. I normal use MCW lacquer or Createx Candy20 on 1/2th cars. My thoughts are with the larger paint surfaces do I need to use something larger ?

For those that paint LARGE SCALE, what size airbrush (or spray gun) do you recommend ?
