What is the cost per day/mile for this rig. I may need it in the future. Very nice looking build. I see plenty of these on the highway every day.

OK you have my interest. I am going to presume it is going to be multi-shades of red. Hope you show details of the masking/painting process.

X2 to what all the above have said. That is one beautiful Pontiac and your detail is beyond exclamation.

Wow, that is some great looking weathering, very realistic. I know that is not the purpose of your post, thanks for the heads up. I have used it on occasion and have yet to have any issues. But, that does not mean it may not come to pass.

Ain't nothing "stock" about a 426 Hemi. That red really looks good. Keep the updates coming.

Another question concerning embossing powder. I was at Hobby Lobby looking for embossing powder and found the small jars. Right next to them is a larger jar of larger embossing powder https://www.hobbylobby.com/search/?text=embossing+powder&quickview=13638 . Has anyone tried this? Would like to know if the larger size would be out of proportion for carpet before plunking down $8 + for a bottle (using 40% coupon).

WOW!!! is not sufficient for this conversion. That is some excellent scratchbuilding. Love all the details you have added.

Beautiful tanker, as mentioned, that finish is really sweet. Could you show some close-ups of the pump assembly, or better yet maybe a WIP on how you did it?

One mighty fine looking Chevy convertible. Beautiful detail work in the interior and an excellent choice of colors.

Very nice looking old-style rod. I have seen that exhaust treatment on pictures of other 1:1's from the era. Never understood how they would protect the paint from blistering. Anyhow, you caught the very essence of the era with this build. Sure wish Revell would rerelease those wheels and tires.

Very excellent T-Bird. Your patience and building skills are evident by turning this somewhat sow's ear of a kit into a very fine silk purse. Gives me some incentive to dig mine out of the stash.

Going to be one wicked Camaro. Looking forward to progress.

Really enjoying watching this one come together. The "minor" details are what is making it come to life. Keep those updates coming.

Beautiful old rod. Where did you get those beautiful wheels and tires?

Thursday I wore a T-shirt to work, it was in the high 70's tickling the 80's; this morning I will need to wear my overcoat to church it is 24 degrees. And they are predicting a possible wintry mix for overnight, glad I have tomorrow off. It will be a good day to begin on reconstructing my basement work space after having some drainage work done down there.

A real beauty, excellent attention to detail.

Excellent build of one of the more beautiful Tri-5's. Really like the color combination and your attention to cleanliness in building is over the top.

Mighty fine looking sedan. Some excellent scratchbuilding. Are you going to drill holes in the visor to allow air to escape at speed?

I have used those quite often. Another good source is to go to your nearest sign maker. Many of them use different thicknesses of styrene and have barrels full of scrap pieces and will sell them fairly reasonable. The pieces may not be square, but are usually large enough to cut some usable pieces.

Don't forget a water filter/trap. Looks like there is one on the unit, but it is not mentioned in the ad.

Really cool street rod. Don't see too many in yellow, but I like it.

Very cool VW pickup. You said those are AMT winter tires, where did you get them? Thanks.

An overall excellent LSR. Looks record-breaking fast just sitting there. Very good job on the weathering.

These have been in the magazine for years. There have been some very talented artists submissions, and yes, plenty of inspiration for builds. I have a couple in mind to build, when I get around to them.

Not bad - - - for a slot car. If it don't go Vroom, Vroom, I don't want it.
