  1. Thanks. I have a problem with BMF being very fragile and tending to peel off if handled. It seems it would be hard to get it to stick to such small areas but I will try it. Thanks for the tip!
  2. Very nicely done! How did you "chrome" the emblems? That detail is very neat. The rest of the build is period perfect.
  3. Bare metal foil or Molotow ink? Looks great!
  4. Great Detail work. I love the South Bend license plate!
  5. How do you thin the craft paint? I assume it is acrylic based. No matter, it looks beautiful. Great detail as well.
  6. Interior in resin:
  7. A very clean and well-done build!
  8. I'm actually going to do an accurate interior and cast it in resin for Robert's 2 door and wagon.
  9. Looked for one of those for 3 years. Missed on EBAY three or four times. I am waiting on a Robert Burns body and will use Cutlass or Chevelle donor with scratch built interior.
  10. Great resto mod-what did you use for wheels?
  11. Did you make the valve covers yourself?
  12. Super cool! Jay's Resin wheels? Engine detail is spot on. What did you use for your anodized fittings?
  13. Beautiful build. The seats are too cool! One of my high school friends was related to the Dodge dealer in town so he had nice cars. He had a Charger like that that was a brown color. It was not a Super Bee but had rally wheels and was a really nice cruiser.
  14. What did you use for the seat inserts? Decals? The build is impressive.
  15. Looks great. I love the whole Japanese JDM look. Discovery or someone had a JDM tuner shop show on for awhile and even though I don't know much about foreign cars, I loved the looks they got. Your project is off to a great start. Did the 1-1 in the picture have a cloth sunroof?
  16. You must be one hard guy to please if you are not happy with parts of your work. It is outstanding.
  17. A nice "Day Two" build!
  18. This reminds me of growing up. Our next door neighbor was a retired truck driver and got new cars every few years. He has a green Impala and his wife had a red Caprice. I was fascinated by the fact that the Impala had big "427" call outs on the fender. I thought it was weird that a car like that had the same engine as high performance models. Another sweet build, Tim.
  19. Bare Metal Foil or Molotow chrome?
  20. I can send you a body and stuff if you don't mind a little prep work. My mold is wearing out and the bodies are a little rough.
  21. Work has been slowly progressing. Got some work done on the modified GA. I used the chassis from a 67 Pro Street Chevelle. I had to extend the rear axle tubes and modify the front spindles. I also had to narrow the pan and modify the fenderwells to fit but now it is pretty snug. The interior is my tub, dash, door panels, console, steering wheel and steering column. Clearly Scale Recaro seats and craft felt carpeting glued down. Still need seat belts and wiring plus paint.
  22. That was my Laguna S-3. I built a replica of my real car. If you want accurate interior, use the parts from a Revell 77 Monte Carlo Snap Kit. They are real hard to find now, but I have some spare parts I would donate to the cause.
  23. Another nice build, Tim!
