  1. If it stays like this, it might not get any clear at all.
  2. Detroit Diesel 8v92T, OHV V8, 12.1 L./ 430 hp. At the same time, an exercise in weathering.
  3. Thank you Eric. The treatment of the top involves a very sophisticated method called black textured duct tape. The only thing wrong with it is I couldn't find the grain I was looking for.
  4. Car is pretty well assembled. Only external accessories left to do.
  5. Brian, what technique did you use for the rust?
  6. I may have enough Mopars to fill it, but not all Dodges. I'll check.
  7. That is good guys. That is the primer you are looking at. It was still wet.
  8. Thank you gentlemen. J.T., the base is a 24 x 42 piece of plywood that I use with sawhorses to support things I am working on or painting. It likely has half a pound of overspray on it. I used it in most of my outdoor shots.
  9. My steering column support proved to be too low. Raised the wheel and installed the dash. Now I have to somehow darken the base of the windshield. Added a molding to the edge of the fabric roof.
  10. Thank you gentlemen, it was a fun project.
  11. Welcome Charles. You will like it here.
  12. I thought I'd follow suit and post a few. One of them is a dio, I hope that counts.
  13. Round 2, Duplicolor red filler primer.
  14. Made a steering column & support. Added the glass & fabric roof.
  15. Oh yes!
  16. BRE (Brock Racing Enterprises) Datsun 240Z. SOHC L6, 2.4L/ 240+ hp according to BRE.
  17. How far are you from the background with those "on the ground" photos? Or are they "on the ground"?
  18. Dry fitted the body to the chassis to make sure everything fits before giving it more clear.
  19. Warren, something like this IH K8 would look nice. It is an Illini piece obtained from AITM.
  20. With and without load. Learned one thing. The 38" background I am preparing for "outside the shop" shots won't catch it for a full length truck & trailer combo.
