  1. no habla englaise
  2. 1/24? 1/25? When you get frustrated they both smash against the wall equally. A 1/12 however...
  3. Thanks dudes. I will send my therapist bills to you guys.
  4. This is true. A spare tyre has all the holes where they should be! Here is one I did in the boot of a mercury I was building 20 years ago. Still waiting to be finished lol. You can see the centre, the stud holes, and the holes in the wheel itself (if you look close like).
  5. Did you find a canopy? There's one like the one pictured earlier and a flat one here http://vcgresin.atspace.com/body.html
  6. So. Since nobody has tried talking me out of doing these mods, I may just go a little further. Currently sussing out the front and rear suspensions. Cutting up the interior to create the door jams etc. And kind of considering this here roll bar... Planning is fun!
  7. Once I have more experience working with resin I may just be interested dude. My old man had a 33 Dodge as a young bloke living in Dapto, NSW.
  8. That would be fun on speed bumps. Nice work bud.
  9. aww c'mon honey... just the tip okay? Nice fix up Joe. Details details details.......................
  10. Thats a nice colour dude. Looking good.
  11. Nice build dude! I just picked up one of these kits. Had a look through the box and I must say I am extremely impressed with the quality and detailing of it. One of the best looking kits I have had to date. So nice infact it might be the first time I build a box stock version.
  12. A great rendition of a classic not often seen. Well done dude.
  13. great looking build man. Like others have said, super clean and well detailed. Excellent finish all round.
  14. Mirrors are just for people who want to see where they've been. Just keep looking forward! Nice clean build man. Hope it got you out of your slump.
  15. Probably the ink in the cops pen from writing out the tickets!
  16. Looks really tough slammed down low. I really do like those wheels in the first pics.
  17. Thanks guys The last couple days I have been very gingerly cutting out the doors. The 20 year old chop is in good nick, but the joins were a bit testy. I ended up bracing the inner windscreen A pillars with some wire and superglue to secure them, and even as gentle as I was in scribing and slicing out the doors the top left corner of the right hand door came apart on me. Then when I was superglueing that back on the errant piece plinked out of my tweezers and I heard the general direction that it landed in. So the next two hours was spent searching for it! Finally found it and reattached it to the door, then used some strip styrene to secure all the chop points before continuing the cut out. I have made the hinges. Will have to sort out the panels and jams. Slow moving on this one. Anyhow, here is a pic. (I had to start a photobucket account as I have used up all my storage room here with the chevelle thread lol!)
  18. What's all this real metal being used on a plastic model? Absolute malarkey. Cease this immediately! As is usual, bloody good work Joe.
  19. beautiful. Simple and elegant. Very well done.
  20. She came out looking great Stan. I dig the weathering. Wish I could find something like that behind someones shed for real! What did you do to the inside?
  21. This is just all round epic. Great concept and awesome finish. Really impressed. Congrats man.
  22. That there be a glorious '70 man. One of my favourite muscle cars ever. Really nice clean build.
  23. That is beautiful. Nice and clean and the finish is spot on. Well done dude.
  24. Hmm... well I have a bid in on something else at the moment. So if anyone wants to go for this feel free. I am not keen keen for corvette builds, and I decided I have enough hotrods to last me.
