  8. Thanks for all the comments guys! I now have the interior done. I know that it's a little different, but I made the interior shiny and restored.The red gives a nice contrast to the outside. I added air valves, gauges and a tach-o-graph, and of course the shifter.

  9. Great minds or Brians think alike. I would like to do a 6v-53 myself. Did you fair the storm okay where you're at?
  10. Sorry Jerry it's been too long to remember. I've built two of those and I most likely glued the bucket in place. Unless they fit very snug, I usually glue them.
  11. This would be an Awesome build if it had came from a kit, but when I look at all of your fabrication, casting and scratch building that went into this model, it goes to a level far beyond extraordinary. Charlie, you truly are a Craftsman!! EXCELLENT WORK!!! IT looks incredible!!
  12. Very Nice looking 4300!!
  13. The bulk of the rain just stopped a couple of hours ago, but still rain showers. There are several roads flooded including the road between me and my mother-in-laws. We live less than a mile off of High Rock Lake. The Yadkin river feeds the lake and the forecast is for the South Yadkin to crest at 33 feet above flood stage. That's why I'm still up, I've been trying to figure out how high my house is above lake level. It looks like about 40 feet. Praying that there is no more flooding! Thanks for asking!
  14. Looks Great Pat!! Nice work!!
  15. Spotless Build!! Looks Awesome!! Top notch work!!
  16. Looks great!! The leaves were the icing on the cake! Great work!!
  17. Looks Great!! I like the weathering!! Great work!
  18. Looks great!! Those windshields can be a pain. Nice work!!
  19. I like it!! It looks good from where I sit! Nice work!! I like the color! I like the old AMT kits, but for as long as I can remember they could never be built without some modifications. It does seem to me that the newer releases have more flash than the old ones too. They still make a nice finished product though and definitely less work than most resin.
  20. Back in the day, late 80's early 90's all of us who had jacked up four wheel drives candy striped our drive shafts. Mine was black and yellow for a while then white and yellow. Build looks great so far!!
  21. That looks Awesome!! I like the colors!!
  22. Maybe it's the sweet tea! So far the only thing here is some wind, but not too bad and rain,but not extremely heavy. The forecast still calls for us to get as much as 6-11 inches of rain in all. Thanks for asking!
