  1. Sweet Vdub, I've got one of the van to build at some point. Hope I do as nice as this
  2. Thanks DumpyDan, I'm learning slowly
  3. I finished this the other night. It is built from an old amt 3in1 kit that was in pretty poor shape with the roof already chopped(not by me, it was different height on each side). Lots of mods and repairs to the body to get it into better shape. Olds 442 engine, headlights pulled back,extended hood with lexan panel, extended roll pans front and rear with cut down bumpers inside, interior door panels made from card and uncooked spagetti, mercedes wheel trims, first attempt at a scallop paint job, lowered as much as possible without having to chop up the frame, smaller headlights, trunk and fins extended, 62 chevy dash and cut down nova steering wheel, parts box seats. The windows were already glued in when i got this kit so all work was done with windows fitted and I have done the best I could to clean them
  4. sweet job on both, I couldn't choose a favorite
  5. Sweet build, looks smart and may have inspired a future build for me. Thanks for sharing
  6. Nicely done, the tree through the engine compartment is a cool touch
  7. Looks good, the grille fits well
  8. Cool car, You've done a good job on the weathering
  9. Wild car, reminds me of a 60's show rod
  10. Its shaping up well, and I'll be following with interest. I just built this kit and you will find the suspension to sit too far forward at the front and the rear needs a little work to fit as the pins for fitting it to are about 3mm too long so the springs won't fit properly. Also if you use the photoetch kit the bonnet/hood piece is fitted the opposite way to what the instructions say otherwise it sit a little high.
  11. Cool car, This is how the real one should have looked
