  1. Great job.It basically looks like a box stock ride.Nice color too
  2. FYI,if you are planning to buy one of these bodies,just hit the website above.The only thing is,that the hood and hood scoop are on the car,and need to be cut off.I mean of course you can go crazy,open the doors,remove the hood,and cut out the trunk.Once again,I'm not ashamed to admit it,I'm really not the best cutter in the world.But I'll try.Or I might just build it a"curbside"model.But I guess before I do anything,I gotta prep the body,as the guys above me,have thankfully explained how to do.Can you believe that pink Nova is Larry Larson,in the same Nova he's been racing in all this time before he was shattering track records all over this land.Larrys car was not only fast,it was perfect looking.The stance of his Nova,is wild.I Call that a super Nova. Thanks fellas.
  3. Again guys,thanks for all the tips on building this car.Im now thinking of how Iam going to build the chassis/roll cage.Im not the best at working with Styrene.Ah,I'll see how it goes.????
  4. Thanks Monneyzs...Yea the body is pretty wild.I read some info on line about how 3D printers actually work.And your right it's done in layers.What an invention,they can make anything with these incredible machines..Anyway,thanks for all the tips.Yea,this car is going to have a ton of sanding,and filler primer..I just hope I don't screw it up.
  5. Ok,so the Nova finally arrived in the mail.The body is pretty wild.However you were right Crowe,the material,and texture of the car are very weird,to say the least.It has circular lines through out the body.It certainly doesn't feel or look like resin.There is definitely going have to be a lot of sanding and filling..
  6. Sorry,I meant to write,I don't even own a dog.
  7. So I was supposed to receive the Nova Kit in the mail today.Well it wasn't there.So I checked for some info from my tracking number...And that's where I read this very stupid reason,it couldn't be delivered.Apparently the driver could not delivery the package due to some BS ferocious animal that was supposedly lblocking my front door.So I said WHAT!!.I don't event dog,and while there are a lot of dogs on my street,they are all leashed up to there owner.I'd like to meet this beast of a dog roaming around out side.However that would be impossible,because there is none.Its Like the search for Bigfoot.Welp I hope I get it tomorrow.Maybe if I see the mailman,I'll try to find out what had happen and what the deal was with Friggin &@#% Cujo?
  8. Wow,what an excellent build.Great job on all the details.Mean looking,and fast,just the way I like em'
  9. Check out TDR,and Shapeways.Shapeways is the company that actually does the 3D printing..Again the car is not resin.The surface is a bit rough,I heard.So there will some sanding needed.I ordered the Pro mod 66 Nova.I'm looking forward to receiving the model.Ive never worked on anything created by a 3D printer.I hope it comes out pretty cool.So you can Google TDR,or Shapeways,and you should be able to find a lot of information on this Nova,as well as other pro mod cars,they create.
  10. Very cool cars.Just one thing though,it's a little tough to make out some of the details on the cars with a black backround.Other than that,I really like the cars.Very good job.
  11. Very nice car.Great color too
  12. I'm liking this car so far.I like anything tubbed.
  13. Very cool.Great weathering work.
  14. The DAM heat today,92 degrees in NY.Are you kidding me?
  15. Ah,you hit a soft spot in my favorite types of PO-PO,? cars.The good ole'Dodge Diplomat.I have a small collefction of different kinds,and scales of police cars.Some marked,some unmarked.Here are a few of the Diplomats in my collection.I added a few details,such as some antennas,along with some different police officers inside their cars,doing some paperwork.While other are drawing their guns out of their cars.
  16. Hey it's all for fun,right??
  17. The car looks great with the black vinyl roof.What material did you use to make the roof?
  18. Very cool ride.Just a suggestion,but how about a cool surf board up on the roof?
  19. Pepto pink.??No I'm kidding,it looks very good.I really like this car.Can't wait to see it complete.
  20. Hey Dragmodels,again I see you are a fan of 70s,Pro stocks.I just wanted to let you know I picked up the July issue of Hot Rod magazine.It contains a great colorful article on 70s,and 80s Pro stocks,and the history of that era.Do yourself a favor,and grab an issue.Bob Glidden,Rickie Smith,Ronnie Sox,Grumpy Jenkins,Reher-Morrison,etc.it was a great article.
