  1. Sunday rainy Sunday, some little bits and details. Seats, belts, brake master cylinder and new hood supports. I guess the color is obvious.
  2. Working on hood supports and chassis assembly. I’ll need to use brass rod for the support the styrene gives to much. Chassis detail to follow….
  3. Interested in your thoughts on Splash Paints. I have been using them myself lately.
  4. Nice looking Stang! Did you clear coat? Splash?
  5. Last time the site updated I had to change my email address to gain access, but I was able to keep my profile. Glad you found your way back though!
  6. That is fine looking 32 Ford right there.....
  7. Making progress, engine is 90%, chassis is ready for detail and re- doing the exhaust is ongoing. Blessed Memorial Day to all who have lost someone….
  8. Thanks guys! It was the brush. Being the older brother I can relate to the "don't touch it" comment, never owned a pan but I do have a Shovelhead in the garage. You can't beat old iron.
  9. I love it, the chassis and drive train look as good as the exhaust!
  10. Thank you Carl, I managed to get some paint done today, among honey do items that is.
  11. Getting some things fabbed up, sorted and cleaned up. The VCG resin pieces fit nicely. I made the new roll bars and drive shafts from Evergreen styrene. Most parts are primed and ready for paint. Waiting on fender flares to work on the body. I did glue the windshield frame in place using the top as a guide.
  12. The Good Book says to live at peace with all people, whenever possible. Sometimes it just isn't possible but the best thing you can do is try talking to them, grow thinker skin and be kind. Did I mention the whenever possible part!
  13. Nicely done!
  14. Just saying thanks for the kindness
  15. Sad but true, deflating for sure. You will overcome though and it is a lesson learned. Hold fast…
  16. Opinions please. It has been suggested the grill insert be painted black, more in line with the roof and running boards. What is your thoughts?
  17. Nicely done!
  18. Happy wife, happy life. If you are married, wife should be most important. Anything that she feels takes her place is a threat to her emotional system. My wife is supportive and is generally happy with my hobby. That in mind I use the bench time wisely....
  19. Still filling the frame rails and trying a different fuel system. I repositioned the air intake to clear the hood.
  20. My rendition of the 34 Ford 5 window coupe. Drag City Castings chopped body, Base kit by AMT with a few Revell components mixed in. The engine is Pontiac from the Blue Printers Series, Splash Paints Seamist Green, custom mix Tamyia gold, semi and flat black colors. I added my own fuel and brake lines, made a set of taillights, scratch made the headers and exhaust from evergreen styrene. The interior is somewhat detailed but hard to see through the diminished windows. Thanks for looking.... The Build-
