    Thanks Jason, it was a relatively quick and fun build I ordered a couple egg planes, P51 and P47, and another Williams F1 car for when I need a break again from harder builds I like those old Revell Dave Deal kits as well, but they are getting a little pricey and hard to find It does keep the mojo moving along doing something fun and simpler once in a while

    I was just being silly, all a bit tongue in cheek.....but it is perfect for the application. I could have just tossed the gum out Will have to go see Michaels for that foil and for the braided cord in the beading section someone mentioned elsewhere

    More exhaust pipe work Brass pins and sleeves CA glued into holes drilled into the trimmed stock plastic pipes Trial fit of the aluminum tips that slide onto those sleeves.....still to be cut to length My next task is conquering the Alclad Chrome monster and get this painted

    Thanks Ryan Been feeling a little guilty looking at that big Fujimi box and not moving forward on it I am going to test paint some spoons today for a try out some body paint and primers

    Did a little F40 work, got the five pipe tips done Mock up into rear splitter to test fit I have been working my way through this horrible gum to get to its wrapper that will make a great heat shield for the inside of the splitter......one more stick to go

    Rotors and brakes...superb Wiring and connectors...excellent Tire sanding easy.....if you can mount your tire in a Dremel or drill press. These pneumatic sanders work well to mount on Canadian Tire sells 'em http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/mastercraft-drum-and-sleeve-set-6-pc-0544800p.html#.VTqtPxhHarU Golf......Love to play, but I don't think my back would hold up to 18 holes yet

    Great subject to restore; doing this is one of my favourite parts of model building Something cool about taking an old, discarded model apart and making something of it...I guess if I could do that at full 1:1 scale I would be a car restorer! Love that on the dolly photo in your scale garage!!! I like the grey black paint scheme,but that blue is nice too. Hate to suggest it, but you could re-wire those wheels

    Enjoy watching this thread as the build comes along Love how you are showing us your techniques and ideas... good or not so successful A great learning thread for anyone interested in scratch building

    I like the second pic smaller trunk as well The esthetic and balance is better than the flat large junk-in-the-trunk look You really are blowing me away with this, good for you
  15. Twokidsnosleep

  16. Twokidsnosleep

    Is that snow golf, or has the East Coast finally thawed out???
  20. Twokidsnosleep
    I laughed hysterically at that comment...well done
  21. Twokidsnosleep
    Cool stuff, Andy and a great story The little egg builds are a little bit of side fun from a more involved build; keeps the creative juices flowing
  22. Twokidsnosleep
    Thank you, I apprectiate that coming from someone who takes simple builds to such high levels...your Fiat comes to mind!!! This is about as inventive as I get
  23. Twokidsnosleep
    Thanks for that Yep HLJ is where I ordered it from
  24. Twokidsnosleep
    Oh yeah, I found the Williams...coming on a slow boat from Japan HLJ to be precise
  25. Twokidsnosleep
    Ahhh, you are killing me with all those Pete, what an awesome stash!! I love that GTO what manufacturer is that?? ME WANT!!! And the 956 Cool! I spent some time searching for the others, but not going to pay $45 on e bay for these kits as much as I like them There are some Japanese sites where you reserve the kit but I think they are either not in production or just coming out?? I will definitely keep my eyes open for the rest of the Grand Prix Q series Thanks for showing me this, I had no idea they existed Cheers, Scott
