  1. I used that on a 70 monte carlo for my pops to replicate gm black cherry
  2. just a quick 1 week build to keep my sanity. metalspeks blue over white, pretty much just box stock with resin tires/wheels and lowered as much is the kit would allow
  3. naw, I'm on the east coast. I have one just like the one in my sig but I haven't got my new rims yet thats why that ones there, still has 15s but I'm getting some 14s in may
  4. This is to be a two car "overhaulin" display, still gotta build up the beater car, has chrome tips on the pipes, just not in the pics
  5. started messing with this last week, gonna be a 2 car "overhaulin" display with a before and after. plastikote blue metalflake and duplicolor metalik black. I did the belly pany and suspension pieces the same blue and the frame the same black for a nice contrast. I'll get around to painting the rear bags this week. I still gotta figure out where to get an air tank and compressors in resin/plastic. phil
  6. whats the best way to replicate to a bare metal/ paint stripped body panel? I'm doing an overhaulin themed project that will be the before and after side by side on a base, and for the before its gonna be a fairly use but still clean look and I was going for the look of a stripped fender or two with some light surface rust phil
  7. looking good Cruz, I got one on the shelf that I hope to get to sometime this summer
  8. I mainly use the wire wheels from pegasus but I have used the T's before. I bought the chicago electric mini table saw a while back and I use that to get straight cuts
  9. Gonna have a shop lift on the left side with the center space to do repairs/rebuilds and the right side will be for storing my completed rides. Still needs paint yet, thinking of going with a wood sheet on the inside and that spatter paint on the outside that looks like concrete. Still got a long way to go. Phil
  10. yeah, I've done a few lowrider caddys but this is an idea thats always been in the back of my mind
  11. been messin with the caddy this morning, I'm calling it "weekend warrior" nothing to crazy, just some skinny slicks, and a montser under the hood. Been joking around with a few friends about putting the dominos logo on the quarter panel and have it say "10 seconds or its free"
  12. Finished this one friday morning after work. Painted in 1970's era autumn maple from duplicolor but came out lighter than it should have. Wheels are from the 62 impala slipped into some pegasus aluminum sleeves. Mostly built box stock but as a mean street cruiser that I wouldn't mind having.
