Along the same lines?

Insane kit, why did I buy this? Way way way beyond my abilities to build right. Oh well, I'll still enjoy having it around.

Hi, They'll be back open come January but does anyone have the C1 wide body kit for the C7 Vette? Curious how it really looks.

I can see echos of this car in a Fiero. I would've liked to have seen a fatter, taller profile of tire in the Foose version. But I must say that Monsignor Chip is awesome. I enjoy his show but wished his cast was more serious like him. There's a bit of cheese in that garage at times.

Hi, Has any one checked the Overhaulin episode where Chip Foose rebuilt a 72' Lotus Europa? OMG, totally richter scale! Totally dope! http://www.chipfoose.com/ws_display.asp?filter=Overhaulin_Season_6_Lotus

Well, it was not too bad but I just wanted the car, soo awesome. That's a good question. I'm just happy the Nakamura Scorpione looked pretty darn close to the real thing.

Got this GEM and am stoked for it to be my first build of 2017; Looking to improve the engine bay and other things. What a beauty!

Here here, I ditto that. Merry Christmas. Got some amazing bubbly chillin and havin a tasty SweetP House Margy; Ingredients; 3 oz of good tequila, I prefer a good quality anejo. 1 oz of simple syrup you make your self (sugar water). 1.5 oz of Gran Gala, better and cheaper then Cointreau. 1 oz of Trader Joes organice cherry juice small amount of jalapeno with seeds (or w/o seeds). 1 entire lime, cut in 1/2 half This salt; http://www.salttraders.com/products/Margarita-Salt.html Procedure; Fill a shaker mostly with ice. Put in; Tequila Simple syrup Gran Gala Cherry juice Squeezed lime juice from both halves Jalapeno Shake that baby like you're in a music video. Final; Rub the squeezed lime half on the rim of your drinking glass so the salt can stick to it Place salt in a bowl and rub the rim of the glass in it Pour in the goodness. Bayam. ** I’ve been substituting seltzer water OR ginger beer in place of cherry juice. Just some ideas. ** I’ve also been making sugar free simple syrup by substituting Splenda

Indeed; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quad_4_engine#/media/File:Quad4-one.JPG Was the racing variant ever kitted?

This one looks really bad a$$; http://www.indycals.net/parts/indyparts/resinoffy.html He also has the turbo/exhaust set for it here; http://www.shapeways.com/product/FLRRCJ7JA/1976-mclaren-exhaust-and-intake?optionId=19247636 What do you think?

Wow some bad a$$ posts for sure. I've always been partial to inline 4's and preferred them over V6. In my limited tuner experience, the V6 seemed a crappy out of balance engine but I digress. But like I said, not much extended experience to have messed with a naturally well behaved V6. I think a flat 6 is awesome however. My vote goes to the Offy though in terms of looks and performance for its day. With today's crazy ignition systems, I bet you can really pump out ponies from an Offy.

OMG was this the Mini Exotics BDA? Looks amazing regardless, WOW!

Hi, I recently posted about nicest Offy in 1/25 form. I thought to expand this to actual 1:1 and would love to hear this communities opinions on superlative inline 4s. Thus far, my list; Ford Cosworth BDA found here; https://www.google.com/search?q=ford+cosworth+bda&biw=1440&bih=733&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj3u8_NmYjRAhXMTSYKHRRDDU4Q_AUIBigB#imgrc=duZHlaQQ7hl6eM%3A Offenhauser Indy found here; https://www.google.com/search?q=offenhauser+indy&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwia05zumYjRAhVCSCYKHQ4PAeEQ_AUICSgC&biw=1440&bih=733#imgrc=UrjdbJZ1oRW5tM%3A Fiat / Abarth Tipo 236 Straight 4 found in 69' Abarth 2000 Scorpione concept found here; http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/img/Abarth-2000-Pininfarina-Scorpione-47358.html The last one being most awesome in my opinion!

Wow, thanks for the GREAT info!

Hi, Curious if the community has an opinion on Offy engine comparisons between ARM and Revell? ARM; http://americanracingminiatures.com/?product=esca-3-125th-scale-270255-offenhauser-engine-kit Revell; http://manuals.hobbico.com/rmx/85-4267.pdf I'm thinking the Revell both in terms of material and part count.

Well, I plan to, with a twist of course

WOW, looks like heaven! Very very very cool. Best man cave ever. A couch, a wine fridge and your set!

Do you think the AMT IMSA Camero would be a slightly better starting point engine wise, or at least not a worse one?

I dunno but based on your post and whats available, I'll use the Grand Sport

Hi, Wondering if any one knows of a 1/25-1/24 Scarab MK4 engine source? The intakes looks very unique.

I just learned something front his post. It's to dust off the model before taking some pics. The rear has a ton of dust spots on it as do the tires, bummer.

http://www.clearlyscale.com/product/vector-style-wheels-kdw-tires-sets They come in 3 sizes. BTW, I added the nuts etc...

Thanks Foxer. I left the paint as is with minor buffing as I really liked its matte look. Gravity Paints are amazing to me.

Yea man, those wheels are dope! He's got a lot of cool wheels and his engines look killer. He is doing a CZ V16 for me that I've planned for an Aerovette project.

Thank you very much Dan; aka Yoda, your builds are crazy good! This is an AMT 1/25 05' Ford GT.
