  1. on small detail parts ive started using rustoleum 2x, its a paint and a primer, the finish isnt 100% but aslong as you give the car a light weathering it looks great, and you get to be lazy with only one coat of paint
  2. how did you do the rust?
  3. $16 plus $5 shipping for headers? man im selling my parts bin and retiring at 22
  4. i cant do that, my dad already says he should have called me that
  5. honstly ive never seen the show the name has already been taken by a couple low rider edsels
  6. well i do have a morbid sense of humor at times, and was Mental health a idea for me or the car i hate you, #658 on my too build list, anyone know who makes a k car body?
  7. so i've had this body on my work bench almost a year now, trying to come up with the perfect name for it so i can get a fire under me to start it. hopefully you guys can give me a hand to get me started. My current name for it, that i'm liking more and more is "Silent Scream" and anyone who was in there 20's in1988 and had big hair better know where that name comes from. if you are not from that time period, Silent Scream was a Anti Abortion video that came out in 1984 then the metal band Slayer made a song about the same thing. and being that ford killed Edsel right from the start it fits. but want some input or other possible ideas. some of my other ideas that i shot down were "prom night dumpster baby" never finalized into a name but something to do with "lemon" or taking the amt's edsel funny car name of "unreal" Note: not my pic, just too lazy to go take a picture of a unstarted resin body for this thread, but its the same car

  10. its the same guys who think a busted weld on a intake manifold makes the floor drop out. or you can be smoking tires as you do a wheelie, and disk brakes dont need calipers
  11. ive been on here for a few months now, not posting just looking at posts but I guess its time introduce myself. Hi I'm Erik I've only been building model cars for about two years. But I've been into model railroading my whole life (modeling the akron branch of the penn central between hudson and akron ohio) I got into cars as a kind of stress free modeling subject so typically I dont super detail any of my builds. I just use them as a break when I get cross eyed from modeling n scale (1:160). I pretty much only build vintage dragsters (50s-70s) and a few rat rods or dirt cars mixed in. The pic is my desk at work... And yes I know tom's rail is a diecast not a model
  12. sorry if someone else already posted this, i got lazy and didnt finish the thread, but here is the instructions it will list whats in the kit. http://manuals.hobbico.com/rmx/85-4190.pdf

  14. only saying this because you said your open to suggestions/criticisms and it may be fixable without a repaint or much work. this could be the camera angle but it still looks like the wing is a little high, the one in the movie was about level with the roof. but it could be your camera angle http://image.carcraft.com/f/featuredvehicles/1305_ccrp_dodge_charger_daytona_fast_furious_6/47211749/1305-phr-23%2Bdodge-charger-daytona%2Bfast-furious-6%2Bdodge-charger-daytona%2Bfast-furious-6%2Bprofile.jpg
  15. did you shorten the Daytona too? man that looks good
  16. he asked a question i answered it, now if he had asked "anyone know where I can find model brake duct hoses" or something like that i wouldn't have answered with this answer because it wouldn't answer his question
  17. attached to the brakes
  18. trade it in, you will discover something called the ability to turn

  24. Det enda jag ser även om språket är " Inget vulgärt språk eller " falska " vulgärt språk " så jag tror att vi är bra
