  1. Tom, did you use pre molded stock on the grille or do the bars individually?
  2. Painted up a dash and console. Very hard to paint small details on these!
  3. Built from scratch. I built a 73 Buick Gran Sport and used that as a basis. I also did a 76 Century Pace Car and took the formal roof from that. All scratch built.
  4. Door panel detail:
  5. Back seat was Testor's white enamel, which is very thin. It needs another coat.
  6. Just for kicks I painted the interior. White Testor's lacquer on the front seats, Tamiya TS10 French Blue on the door panels and Tamiya TS54 Light Metallic Blue on the carpeted areas. A little Molotow chrome on the trim. Ready for a dash and console.
  7. That is incredible! Great detail. It looks like it could be on an engine stand waiting to go into a full resto.
  8. Looks good so far!
  9. Then I just might win, but I doubt it!
  10. I'll send you one and we can race to get done. I will most assuredly lose.
  11. Love that color!
  12. Got the interior mostly done. I have to refine details and it is ready. The body is about 95% done. More refinement, add some trim and this will be ready for clay.
  13. Where did the wheels come from? They look killer on the car. Has a nice period feel to it.
  14. I wipe my resins down with rubbing alcohol and then wash them in dish soap. Air dry and move on. I also have used auto wax and grease remover. Quick wipe followed by another paper towel then in the dish soap bath.
  15. The master for the formal roof Century is in the final polishing up stages, then on to mold making!
  16. More progress. I opened up the grille area and fabbed a new one. 39 separate pieces! I modified the front bumper to fit the 75 and added the center bulge for the license plate. In back I modified the deck lid and the rear quarters to fit the 75 profile. I fabbed up a new rear filler and tail lights and modified a bumper I had from the parts box. It is coming together.
  17. Gerald your work space looks like mine. Orderly chaos!
  18. I have the 74 GTO on my list of "nexts". Soon as I finish the 75 Buick Century Indy Pace Car.
  19. Looks great! You back to doin decals yet?
  20. Make that SENATOR Blutowski
  21. "My advice to you is begin drinking heavily"...
  22. No kit yet. I am building the 75 now.
  23. That's what I'm working on. See the first picture.
